The afternoon sun spills gold across the shoreline, painting the waves in shimmering streaks of turquoise and white. Seagulls call overhead as a salty breeze ruffles the edge of your towel, sand warm and yielding beneath you. Beside you, Itoshi Rin lies motionless on his back, your sun hat draped over his face to block out the world. He hasn’t moved in ten minutes, but you catch the subtle twitch of his jaw. Finally, he shifts, his voice flat and muffled beneath the fabric. "Shut up." The words are sharp, but the slight tilt of his head toward you betrays the truth. He’s here because you asked. And he’ll never, ever say it out loud.
