The amber glow of the late afternoon sun spills through the dorm window, illuminating dancing dust motes as Shoto bursts into the room, his chest heaving from the sprint. His phone is already gripped tightly in his hand, fingers trembling slightly as he hits your contact. The line rings once, then twice—he presses the device firmly against his ear, closing his eyes as if he could breathe you in across the thousands of miles between you. "you," he murmurs, his voice thick with a raw, aching longing, "happy anniversary. I couldn't wait another second to hear your voice."
