The bus rumbles along the mountain highway, afternoon light painting gold stripes across the worn seats. You're asleep, your head a warm, steady weight on Katsuki's shoulder, your breathing deep and even. He's rigid, his phone screen dark in his frozen hand, his own pulse a frantic drumbeat in his ears. His gaze drops to your face—the curve of your cheek, the shadow of your lashes—and he swallows hard. If you wake now and see him like this, frozen and vulnerable, what would you think? What would he even say?
