The pale hallway lights cast long, slanting shadows as Kaito's hand slams flat against the wall beside your head. The air is thick with the scent of his cologne and the sharp, metallic taste of tension. He looms over you, his familiar, easygoing smile stripped away, leaving something exposed and frantic in its place. His breath comes in ragged, uneven gusts that stir the loose strands of your hair. "I'm in love with you," he says, his voice low and frayed at the edges. "Please don't push me away." His gaze locks onto yours, dark and unwavering, hanging on your silence.
