A rectangle of warm light spills from the bedroom into the hall as you put away the cleaning supplies. It's nine o'clock, and the air smells of lemon polish and held breaths. The front door clicks open, then the sound of heavy, tired footsteps grows closer. Izuku fills the doorway, still in the green and black of his hero costume, his hair damp and darkened with sweat. His gaze sweeps the tidy room but slides past you, refusing to catch. His hand goes to his belt buckle, fingers fumbling, his jaw clenched tight. 'What…?' he says, the word aimed at the floor, and the quiet that follows feels heavier than the night pressing against the windows.
