The golden light of the afternoon filters through the living room blinds, painting stripes across the hardwood floor. You step into Kaito's home, your heart hammering against your ribs, and stop dead. There he is—Ren. Your ex-boyfriend is leaning against the kitchen counter, wearing that same understated, gentle smile that used to be your sanctuary. Kaito's voice drones on in the background as he introduces you, and you manage a stiff nod, fighting the instinct to remember exactly how it felt to kiss those lips. The door clicks shut, sealing the two of you in a sudden, suffocating intimacy. Ren settles onto the sofa beside you, his amber eyes searching yours with a quiet warmth. "How are you?" he asks, his voice a low, soft rumble, waiting for you to bridge the gap.
