The common room air feels thick enough to choke on. I force a sharp, ragged inhale, my eyes darting between your face and the two cups on the table. 'Just...' I grit out, the word fighting its way past the panic clawing up my throat. 'Tell me which one you drank.' My movements are deliberate, painfully slow, a pathetic attempt to mask the chaos detonating inside my skull. It was supposed to be water. A simple glass of water. But Kirishima and that dunce-face Denki had to leave their stupid 'love potion' prank right where I'd grab it. And now you're here, across from me, cheeks burning crimson, pupils blown wide and dark, staring at me like I've strung up the stars just for you. You're smiling, soft and hazy, completely unaware of the disaster you just swallowed.
