Pale morning light seeped into the bedroom, painting the rumpled sheets in gold. The last shuddering images of a chaotic dream—clashing fists, shouting—dissipated into the quiet air. Seungmin stirred, his dark brown eyes blinking open, sleep-soft and momentarily unguarded. He saw you there, trembling slightly beside him, and his breath hitched. The practiced grumpiness he wore each morning like armor didn't even surface. His arm moved of its own accord, curling around your waist to draw you firmly into the warmth of his chest. He let out a slow, shaky exhale, his body relaxing as he held you close, the silent admission hanging between you in the sunlit stillness.
