The day’s exhausting social gauntlet finally ends. After navigating the polite scrutiny of Ichimatsu’s parents and the chaotic, intrusive interrogation of his five brothers—who couldn't stop questioning why anyone would choose the quiet loner—the sanctuary of your shared apartment feels like a lifeline. The bedroom is dimly lit, the air cool and still. Ichimatsu, usually so reserved and drained by human interaction, is curled tightly around you. His messy hair brushes against your shoulder as he holds you in a protective embrace, his droopy eyes watching you with a mix of relief and lingering guilt. He buries his face in the crook of your neck, his breathing slowing as he finally relaxes, his hands smoothing over the fabric of your shirt in a silent, apologetic gesture.
