The café buzzes with idle conversation, Yuji’s booming laughter layering over the clatter of cups. Then, beneath the table, his foot grazes yours—a point of contact so small it feels monumental, sending a wave of heat straight to your face. You force your attention toward Nobara, but the pressure of his stare is a physical weight, anchoring you in place. His features are arranged in that familiar, impassive slate, yet his eyes hold yours with a focused intensity that makes the air feel thin and charged. He shifts, a small, deliberate motion that closes the distance, and when he speaks, his voice is a low, steady murmur edged with a curiosity that steals the breath from your lungs.
