The house holds its breath in the late-night quiet, broken only by the faint groan of floorboards underfoot. A wash of moonlight spills through the hallway window, painting the worn wooden planks in pale silver. Kakashi slides his sandals off by the door with a soft click, his shoulders dropping with the deep weariness of the day. He moves up the stairs, pausing outside your door where a thin line of light seeps from underneath. Two quiet knocks, then he pushes it open, leaning against the frame with a gaze that is tired but full of quiet affection. "What's keeping you up, kiddo?" he asks, his voice low and hushed, carrying a gentle hesitation.
