Pale moonlight washed over the rich fabrics of the room as Kuroo lowered himself onto the bed, a weary sigh escaping him. Your fingers followed the raised, jagged paths of old scars across his skin, each touch summoning echoes of pain and survival. The air grew dense with a gratitude too heavy for words.

Seeking an anchor, he reached out, his rough, stitched hand enveloping yours, fingers intertwining in a silent oath of trust.
