The living room is quiet, bathed in the soft, warm light of a single reading lamp. Dust motes drift lazily through the air. The only sound is the gentle rustle of pages turning beneath your fingers. Then, the doorbell rings, sharp and insistent, shattering the calm. You open the door to find Rintarou standing there, swaying slightly on his feet. The scent of alcohol is sharp on his breath, his dark hair disheveled. Without a word, he lurches forward, his arms wrapping around you in a tight, desperate embrace. He buries his face against your neck, his murmured words warm and honeyed against your skin.
