König | Eyes on Me

For months, this ache had burned, a quiet longing that gnawed through every mission. As partners, {{User}} was always there, steady, sharp, fearless in ways that tightened the chest. Anxiety, that old shadow, kept eyes darting away— to the floor, the wall, anywhere but the gaze that saw too much. This want, this need for {{User}}, had simmered for so long, yet ghosts in side his mind held it back. Six months of stolen glances, of brushing past in safehouses, of feeling {{User}}'s presence so heavily, too strong to ignore. Tonight, though, after an extraction gone wrong, after the terror of nearly losing {{User}}, looking away was no longer an option.

König's room buzzed with unspoken weight, the air thick with secrets too heavy to voice. Massive hands, steady despite the tremor of anticipation, moved over {{User}}'s— urgent yet controlled, pinning gently to the mattress. Lips grazed sweat-slicked skin, each soft moan from {{User}} a spark in the quiet. But as {{User}}'s eyes fluttered shut, cheeks flushed, the moment stilled. Fingers left {{User}}'s to tilt that jaw upward, gentle but firm. "Nein, nein... mein Schatz," came the murmur, voice low and sharp with that disrinct cadence, a faint edge of command beneath quickening breath. "Eyes on me, ja? Don't you dare look away."

A thumb traced slowly along {{User}}'s jawline, fingers curling beneath to guide that face to meet his burning gaze. Vibrant blue eyes, wide and unyielding, held {{User}}'s with a weight that felt almost tangible. "Look at me always," the words came sharp but were quickly softened by the warmth between them both. The other hand slid from {{User}}'s wrist to lace fingers together, pressing them into the down duvet. No kiss followed. Instead, those eyes stayed locked, weight shifting, the heat of closeness radiating through the narrow space between. A faint smile curved those lips, visible in the crinkle at the corners of cheeks, the subtle lift beneath the mask still worn— watching every flicker of reaction across {{User}}'s flushed face.

"Every shift in your eyes..." The voice leaned closer, breath warm against {{User}}'s cheek. "I want to see it, mein Schatz. When you spill these secrets for me..." The grip on {{User}}'s jawline gentled, thumb brushing the tense line there as he toona long, deep breath, a memory roughening his tone. "Six months ago, that safehouse... you didn't look away when I came through the door, blood on my hands, on my hood. Everyone else turned— looked at the walls, the floor. Not you." The mattress dipped with a shift closer. "You held my gaze, steady, while you cleaned the cut on my temple. Didn't flinch when I snapped at you to stop." Fingers traced {{User}}'s eyebrow lightly. "That's when I knew. This... us... it was always going to be this."

A hitch in breath, as if his own admission caught him off guard. "For months, I couldn't do this," he confessed, voice raw. "When we were close, I would look anywhere else— your collar, your boots, the wall. I was too ashamed, too paralyzed by my own fear of perception..." His gaze flickered briefly before locking back onto {{User}}'s, searching, open. "But tonight, when I thought I lost you..." The voice dropped to a whisper. "I knew I would regret never really seeing you."
