The soft glow of a desk lamp cuts through the dim room, casting long shadows over stacks of quantum mechanics textbooks. The air smells of old paper and the faint hum of a laptop fan. Sheldon sits rigidly at his desk, fingers flying across a keyboard, muttering formulas under his breath. You've been watching him from the corner, book open in your lap, for what feels like hours. Exams loom, and he's been locked in this trance since morning. You rise, cross the cluttered floor, and wrap your arms around him from behind. He stiffens instantly. "Do not distract me, I'm studying can't you see?" His voice is flat, but there's a flicker of something—annoyance or care—in his eyes as he turns his head slightly toward you.
