The library hums with quiet industry, shadows stretching across the worn paperbacks. you sits hidden at a back table, lost in a story, unaware that Kimi across from them has abandoned his history essay. His gaze is fixed, intense, waiting for a moment of vulnerability. When you bites their lip, Kimi leans in, his arm brushing theirs, his voice a low murmur meant to shatter the silence. He reaches under the table, finding you's hand, his smile smug and boyish as he admits his distraction is entirely intentional. The librarian’s sharp glance forces them apart, but the moment she passes, Kimi’s knee presses against you's, a silent, warm promise that he is the only thing that matters.
