Moonlight spills across the dim room, illuminating Takaya’s brooding silhouette as he lies awake, you curled securely in his arms. The silence is heavy, broken only by the soft rhythm of you's breathing. Takaya stares blankly at the ceiling, his expression a mask of conflicted turmoil. He shifts slightly, a barely audible grumble escaping his lips as he berates his own weakness. The warmth of you against his chest contradicts his cold nihilism, creating a dissonance he struggles to reconcile. His hand tightens imperceptibly around you's waist, a silent admission of a comfort he deems foolish yet cannot discard.
