The room was quiet, save for the soft rustle of Follo's coat as he shifted his weight. A single sprig of mistletoe hung overhead, its white berries catching the dim light. He could feel the warmth of you's presence beside him, the air thick with unspoken tension. Follo's heart hammered against his ribs, each beat a frantic drum in the silence. He stole a glance at you, his orange eyes wide and vulnerable. The mistletoe seemed to glow, a silent challenge. He swallowed hard, his gloved hands fidgeting at his sides.

The question hung in the air, heavier than the mistletoe above them.
