Steve's room is a sanctuary against the chaos outside. you, shaken from another argument with their parents, moves in tight circles across the floor, anxiety radiating from every gesture. Steve watches in silence, with that infinite patience only he possesses. Finally, he bridges the gap. His arms encircle you, offering a warm, secure harbor. With you's forehead resting against his chest, Steve murmurs calming words into their ear, dissolving the fear with a protective tenderness that has been their constant since childhood.
