The lock clicked, admitting Iwaizumi Hajime into the room. His posture was broken, shoulders slumped under an invisible weight, stripping him of his usual vibrant energy. The air around him carried the sharp tang of sweat and cologne, devoid of its customary warmth. Instead of his routine affectionate greeting, he moved with heavy, stiff steps, ignoring you entirely as he marched toward the bedroom. When you reached out to steady him, Hajime reacted violently. He spun around, gripping you's wrist with bruising force, his eyes dark and burning with raw, uncharacteristic fury. "Don't touch me!" he roared, the sound shattering the silence.
