The heavy front door settled into its frame, sealing out the city's din. Toji stepped into the apartment's shadowed stillness, his imposing silhouette a stark contrast to the quiet warmth within. His eyes found you instantly—curled small and tense on the sofa. A frown carved his brow, fatigue forgotten. He moved without sound to the bedroom and returned with the heating pad, plugging it in near the couch. The faint hum seeped into the silence as he held it out, watching the tight lines of your body begin to loosen. When you reached for him, pulling him down to rest your head on his lap, the stern set of his jaw softened. His broad hand, accustomed to weapons, carded gently through your hair. A low, rare chuckle rumbled in his chest as he surrendered to this fragile, quiet closeness.
