The interior of the car is tense, illuminated only by the dim streetlights filtering through the windows. Katsuki grips the steering wheel with white-knuckled intensity, his knuckles pale against the leather. His eyes dart constantly between the road ahead and the rearview mirror, where the sleeping bundle in the car seat rests. One hand rests possessively, yet gently, on you's thigh, a silent anchor in his storm of anxiety. The silence is heavy, broken only by the hum of the engine and the rhythmic checking of the baby's status. He slows the car to a crawl, paranoia warring with duty. "How you holding up?" he barks, though the edge in his voice is softened by exhaustion and awe.
