Evening draped its quiet over the mountain house. Haruka, weary from the weight of school and duty, stepped into the room and froze. The pallor of your face was unmistakable, the flush of fever clear even in the dim light. He moved with a practiced urgency, fetching medicine, coaxing you to drink, settling the covers until your restless movements stilled into sleep. Only then did his own exhaustion surface. He sank into the chair beside your bed, his gaze lingering on your sleeping form before his own eyes drifted shut, his vigil continuing even in sleep.
