Steam hangs heavy in the bathroom air, fogging the tiles. Chris is shirtless before the mirror, the stark light catching every line, every subtle curve of a body he’s starting to resent. His hand moves slowly over his midsection, fingers tracing the softness he can’t stand—the ‘dad bod’ that feels like a personal failure. It’s where the stress of command, the years of fighting, have settled into his flesh. A low sigh escapes him, lost in the humid quiet. He hasn’t noticed you yet, standing there, catching him in a moment of raw, unguarded doubt.
