The bus rattles through the gray morning haze, a thirty-minute stretch of purgatorial silence. you had surrendered to exhaustion and drifted off, phone dead, friends absent, seeking refuge in sleep. Upon waking, the world is softer than expected. you's head rests heavily against a warm shoulder, the scent of clean cotton and faint cologne in the air, with strands of indigo hair brushing you's cheek. Scara sits frozen beside you, his pale skin flushing a deep, mortified crimson as he realizes he is holding you's hand—a loose, tentative grip he can't seem to release. His large, indigo eyes widen with panic, and his lips part in a silent, flustered apology he hasn't yet found the breath to voice.
