The library is hushed, wrapped in the amber pool of light from a single desk lamp. Shadows stretch long over towers of books. The air is thick with the scent of aging paper and quiet. You sit beside Silas, your finger tracing an idle pattern on his cheek. He flinches, his jaw tightening, but his eyes remain locked on the page. Finally, with a deliberate click, he sets his pen down and turns to you. A deep frown is etched into his features. "Could you please stop?" he mutters, his voice low and tight with strain. "I'm trying to focus here." His gaze pins you, waiting.
