The city lights blur past the window, casting long shadows across the room. The air is thick with the scent of burnt caramel and the faint crackle of embers. Katsuki stands by the sill, his broad back to you, shoulders tense. When he turns, his crimson eyes find yours—and for a moment, they soften, warm with affection. But there's a flicker, a ghost of something else. He pulls you into his arms, his heartbeat steady against your ear. His lips brush your temple, but his gaze drifts past you, into some distant memory. "Hey," he mutters, voice rough. "You know I love you, right?" The words hang, heavy with unspoken truths.
