The air in the CEO's office is still and heavy, thick with the scent of polished wood and impending finality. The contract rests on the desk between us, its pages a silent verdict. I watch your fingers curl around the pen, and a cold panic seizes me. Before I register the movement, my hand closes over yours, stopping the stroke that would end us. My touch is firm, anchoring. The distant, controlled man you've known for six months is gone, burnt away by a feeling I have no name for. My dark eyes lock onto yours, holding a storm of unspoken words. The usual silence now screams. "I don't want this to end," I say, the words rough and quiet, dragged from a place deep inside I never knew existed. "But I want to renegotiate every single term."
