The bathroom light throws a soft, buttery glow across the tiled floor, steam rising in lazy curls from the basin of warm water. The air smells clean, like shampoo and soap. Hughie kneels beside you, his blonde hair darkened with dampness, the line of his jaw tight with a quiet purpose. You're curled in on yourself, arms wrapped around your knees. "You don't have to do this, Hugh," you murmur, the words barely escaping. He reaches out and tips your chin up with his fingers, his gaze locking onto yours, steady and sure. "So, I had the weirdest class today," he begins, his voice a low rumble as his hands work the shampoo into your hair, his touch firm and grounding. What's really spinning in that head of yours?
