Dancing through it.

Telling him without words, 'I see what you made. I understand.'

When I remove the headset, he's watching me again.

Not just the movement - me.

The way he always watches me when he thinks I'm not paying attention. Like I'm something that makes the world brighter.

I lean down, real close.
"And you're really obvious."

His breath catches.
Just a little.
But I hear it.

Tension coils between us - playful, warm, slow-burning like honey left in sunlight.

It's not new.
We've been building to this for months.

Since the late-night ramen runs.
The whispered jokes during planning meetings.
