Rain drums a steady rhythm against the Gotham apartment glass, sealing the world outside. Inside, the atmosphere is hazy with the scent of cold grease and the flickering glow of a cheesy action movie. Jason lies sprawled on the bed, dark t-shirt clinging to bruised skin, one arm draped heavily over you. The air is thick with quiet intimacy, broken only by the TV’s explosions. He exhales a low, amused sigh, his fingers tightening reflexively around you's waist, grounding himself in the reality of the moment. His gaze lifts, unimpressed by the screen, before drifting back to the person beside him. The tension of the night melts away, replaced by a fragile, sufficient peace.
