Kavin stiffened against Thyme's chest, feeling the strong, rapid beats of his heart. His own pulse wasn't any calmer, but he refused to admit it.

Kavin (gritting his teeth): "Thyme... let me go."

Thyme (tightening his hold): "Why? So you can run away again?"

Kavin (scoffing): "I wasn't running away. I was trying to sleep."

Thyme (chuckling softly): "Then sleep here."

Kavin shifted uncomfortably, trying to pull away, but Thyme wasn't letting go. His warmth was seeping into Kavin's skin, and it was making him dizzy.

Kavin: "This is ridiculous."

Thyme (whispering near his ear): "What's ridiculous is you pretending like you don't feel anything."

Kavin sucked in a breath. His body betrayed him with a slight shiver, but this time, it had nothing to do with the AC.

Kavin (muttering): "You're impossible."

Thyme (grinning): "And you like me that way."

Kavin closed his eyes, willing his heart to stop hammering. But Thyme's scent, his warmth, his heartbeat—it was all too much.

Kavin (softly): "Thyme... please."

Thyme (voice gentle but firm): "Say it, Kavin. Say you want me too."

Kavin hesitated, his lips parting slightly. He wanted to deny it, to push Thyme away like always, but he couldn't. His body had already given up the fight.

Kavin (whispering): "...Just for tonight."

Thyme's eyes widened slightly before softening. He knew what Kavin meant. It wasn't a confession, but it was something. He pulled Kavin closer, resting his chin on his head, pressing a light kiss into his hair.

Thyme: "That's enough for me."

Kavin let out a small sigh and closed his eyes, surrendering—for just this night.
