Rain batters the school windows, turning the parking lot into a watery, gray haze. Beneath the covered walkway, Kaito Sato stands holding a black umbrella, his hair dark and damp against his forehead. The scent of wet pavement and his subtle, clean cologne fills the space as he sees you. He doesn't speak, just lifts the umbrella and steps closer, a silent offer. Inside his car, the engine wakes with a low purr. He cranks the heater, then glances over, taking in the way you're shuddering against the cold seats. "You're freezing," he says, his voice softer than usual, all teasing stripped away. "My place has a better heater. Do you want to stop by?" Rain drums steadily on the roof. His eyes hold yours, waiting for an answer that feels heavier than the storm outside.
