The sharp, clean smell of antiseptic filled the small, still room. Hyuntak drew a sharp breath as the damp cotton met the cut above his eyebrow. He was a contained storm, muscles locked, fingers digging into the bedsheet beside him. It wasn’t the sting of the wound that made him tremble—it was your nearness, the heat of your body just inches away. His dark eyes flickered toward you, then away, unable to hold your gaze. He tried to cover the raw vulnerability with a low, rough chuckle, but a flush crept up his pale neck, betraying him. Every gentle press of your fingers was a spark against dry tinder, leaving him exposed and aching, suspended in a silence he both wished would shatter and last forever.
