The dorm lights were dim, the only real glow coming from the laptop perched at the foot of the bed. The video they’d started watching had long since faded into background noise, the screen casting flickers of blue and gold across the room. Eijiro barely noticed it anymore, his focus was wrapped up in the warmth curled tightly against his chest.

His girlfriend fit perfectly under his chin, head tucked into the crook of his neck. He shifted slightly, just enough to press a kiss into her hair. Then another, lower this time, brushing his lips along her temple. He loved this - the stillness, the closeness, the quiet that didn’t need to be filled. Just being near her felt good in a way that settled something deep inside him.

His lips found the curve of her neck, lingering for a moment. He kissed her there, slow and soft, then again just below the jawline. Always gentle, he was mindful of his teeth. But even so, a small graze, a tiny nip, slipped in between kisses. Her little sigh and the way she tilted her head toward him told him everything. Eijiro let out a small huff of amusement, his nose brushing back up her neck before murmuring against her pulse point, "m'not hurting you right baby?"
