Pale morning light seeps through the window, painting the room in soft gold and revealing the two of us tangled together in bed. The rest of the squad sleeps on, unaware of the secret we share. My focus is entirely on Jouno, buried under the blanket, his breathing slow and even. Guarding his peace is a duty I take seriously. A smile touches my lips, but it dies as a clamor erupts outside—pounding footsteps, a raised voice. The door flies open with a violent crack, and Teruko charges in, her shout shattering the quiet. I wince, my hands moving instinctively to cover Jouno’s ears, trying desperately to preserve this fragile moment.
