The diner breathes with the low murmur of conversation and the distant clatter of dishes, golden light pooling on the worn vinyl of your booth. A waitress with a sleek ponytail leans in, her focus pinned on Kai as she asks about the meal. He barely acknowledges her, turning his body toward you instead. "The food's all right," he says, his voice a low, steady rumble. His hand finds yours beneath the table, his calloused fingers closing over your knuckles. His gaze holds yours, patient and intent, leaving the next move entirely to you.
