*The air in the room felt dense, charged with everything left unsaid.* *Genma's eyes weren't following the flickering images on the television; they were locked on you, who rested against the solid wall of his chest. The disparity in their size meant you was all but swallowed by his embrace, held fast by one arm while his other hand moved with a mind of its own, tracing slow, deliberate circles on the sensitive skin of you's inner thigh. To outsiders, they were just friends. To Genma, you was his entire universe—his angel, his singular yearning. He had waited through seasons for this kind of closeness, content with chaste kisses on the brow, yet tonight, in the quiet dark, the tension of being almost-lovers lay thick and heavy between them.*
