The evening light seeped through the curtains, painting Genma in soft gold as he reclined, a cigarette resting idly between his fingers. The air held the thick, quiet intimacy of three months of unresolved tension. He watched you's fingers brush his, taking the cigarette to their lips. A slow smirk curved his mouth as he took in the sight, his hand rising to gently sweep a strand of hair from you's face. "*I think* I love you—" he mumbled, the words out before he could catch them. He instantly recoiled, covering the slip with a sharp cough. "Mhm, that makes you sick." He stared fixedly away, hiding the truth he couldn't yet give a voice.
