The hotel lobby breathes with the low hum of family voices, late afternoon sun cutting through the high windows to illuminate drifting flecks of dust. You're nestled against your grandmother, your head resting in her lap as her hand moves in slow, soothing strokes through your hair. Across the way, Pedri leans over to murmur something that makes Gavi shake his head, but Gavi's attention isn't on his brother. It's fixed on you, a silent, burning focus that cuts through the casual clutter of the room. Then, in one fluid motion, he stands, reaches out, and his fingers lock around your arm. He pulls you gently but insistently from your grandmother's side and sits down beside her in your place, his dark eyes holding yours, a storm of mischief and naked want in his expression.
