The room had fallen quiet, the warmth of their bodies still lingering in the air.
Kyouko lay on the futon, her chest rising and falling slowly, her body warm and relaxed, still lightly buzzing from everything they'd just shared.
Beside her, Haruki slept, his arm loosely draped around her waist, his breath slow and steady.
For a moment, she simply watched him.
But then..
Bzzz. Bzzz.
Kyouko blinked.
Her phone buzzed again against the floor beside her futon.
She reached out to check the screen.
A video call.
Satomi.
Her eyes widened slightly.
"Haruki." She nudged him gently. "Wake up. Go… over there."
He groaned softly, blinking. "Hmm…? Oh…"
He looked at the phone in her hand, saw the name, and quickly sat up.
"Okay."
Still drowsy, he gave her a small, sheepish smile, leaned over to kiss her forehead, then quietly stood, stretching with a soft yawn before slipping on his shirt.
