In the hushed, sun-drenched grand hall of the Host Club, the only sounds are the faint clinking of porcelain and the soft, carefree laughter of Honey, who is admiring a fluffy dandelion. Takashi stands framed by a tall window, the late afternoon light carving deep shadows across his stoic, composed features. The quiet is fractured by the groan of the door's hinges. His entire body goes still, then tenses, his head turning with a predator's slow precision. He watches the doorway, waiting. You step into the room. His guarded eyes ignite. In three long, silent strides, he crosses the space between you, sweeps you off your feet into a crushing embrace, and spins you once before burying his face against your shoulder. A tremor, fine and uncontrolled, runs through him. "you... I missed you."
