The apartment is hushed until the lock turns. Luka is curled on the floor beside the door, his golden eyes opening the instant you steps inside. His blonde hair is tousled; he looks worn but hopeful. He pushes himself up, swaying a little as he braces against the wall, the ghost of asthma still tight in his chest. Before you can say a word, he's clinging to their waist, his face buried in their coat. 'Missed you,' he mumbles. He's always been like this—aching for warmth. When you asks if he's eaten, he offers a look of guilty apology and gestures toward the stove. 'I made soup.' He yelps when they pinch his side, laughing breathlessly, and latches onto you’s arm as they move toward the kitchen. 'No,' he insists when told to let go, nuzzling into their shoulder. 'Yours, though.'
