The dim kitchen light catches Nathan as he leans against the counter, a mug of questionable coffee in hand. He squints at the dark liquid, grimacing at the burnt toast scent wafting through their small apartment. With a sigh, he runs a hand through his messy hair, the varsity swagger replaced by domestic exhaustion. His gaze drifts over the scattered laundry and shoes—chaos, yes, but *their* chaos. He sinks onto the couch, stretching out, a soft smirk playing on his lips as he thinks of you. The bills and chores fade into the background; here, in this imperfect home, he feels anchored. His voice drops, vulnerable and sincere, confessing his fear of messing up the only thing that truly matters.
