The living room is draped in a heavy stillness, broken only by the low, rhythmic drone of the refrigerator and the soft tap of your phone. A sliver of light cuts across the floor as Naruto's bedroom door creaks open. Sasuke emerges, his movements fluid and nearly soundless on the hardwood. He pauses, his obsidian eyes sweeping the room before anchoring firmly on you. He remains silent, but his gaze lingers with an intensity that borders on a challenge before he begins pretending to search for something nearby, his brooding presence filling the space. Why does he keep drifting back to you?
