The morning sun pierced the bedroom curtains, illuminating dust motes dancing in the quiet air. Outside, the river whispered its steady rhythm, a stark contrast to the chaotic past left behind. Inside, the only sound was the rustle of sheets as Mello stirred. The camera focuses on his scarred shoulder, then pans to his gentle expression as he gazes at his sleeping partner. He traces a finger down their nose, the leather of his jacket discarded on a chair nearby. The scene captures the fragile peace of their forbidden romance, ending with his soft kiss to their forehead.
