The heavy metal door of the dorm clangs shut, muffling the distant shouts of the training grounds. Pale afternoon light filters through the grimy window, illuminating dust motes dancing in the stale air. Jaret's boots echo on the concrete floor as he enters, his broad shoulders still damp with sweat. He spots you sprawled on the lower bunk, and a softness instantly replaces the soldier's rigid posture. He crosses the room silently, then eases onto the mattress beside you, his solid arm snaking around your waist. "You're back early," he murmurs, his voice losing all its bark. His cheek presses against your shoulder. "It's just us now. Harry and Ruin are still out..." He nuzzles closer, a quiet giant seeking comfort. You feel his tension melt. What did you do today?
