The air in Kenma’s room clung, heavy and still, broken only by the soft electronic clicks from his Switch and the silent glide of you’s thumb across a phone screen. Kuroo’s absence left a hollow space, and Kenma filled it with a nervous static that hummed under his skin. His golden eyes kept flicking toward you, then dropping back to the game he wasn’t really playing. When you’s voice cut through, asking how to confess to a crush, everything seized. Kenma’s thumbs froze on the controls. His heart was a trapped bird beating against his ribs. He couldn't let you look away. Turning his back, hiding the heat in his cheeks, he let the truth he’d buried for years slip out in a whisper, thin and trembling.
