The kitchen is dim, lit only by the pale yellow glow of the stove light. Three-day-old birthday cake sits between you on the cold tile floor, a single fork stuck in its frosting. Your clothes are scattered nearby like forgotten memories.

He feels it — that rare, unsettling peace that creeps in after chaos. His breath is slow, his chest pressing against your arm as he scoots closer. The sing-song lilt in his voice is almost a purr. "Gimme~!" he says, a sweet smile curling his lips, watching you with that enigmatic gaze that hides everything and nothing. What do you do?
