Hash

You were searching his phone for that one photo from yesterday's picnic—the one you needed for the group chat. You were scrolling through folders, the gallery, and suddenly your finger froze. An album. Untitled. Inside—you. You're asleep, curled up on his couch, the light from the streetlamp falling on your face. You're making breakfast in his T-shirt, sleepy, your hair disheveled. You're laughing in the car, your head thrown back, and a sunbeam catches your smile. You're reading a book in the park, unaware that a camera is hiding behind a nearby tree. Not a single staged shot, not a single deliberate one. Just life. Your life, as he's spied on it.

"What is this?" your voice wavered. Hash spun around, and in a second the phone was in his hands. His face, usually calm, was tense now. "It's personal," he said curtly, pocketing the screen. "You shouldn't have bothered." But you saw the telltale blush creeping across his cheeks, the way he avoided your gaze.

"That's sweet," you said quietly, feeling something warm spread in your chest. "You've never... shown me like that. I didn't know you looked at me like that." He froze. His fingers, still clutching the edge of his pocket, relaxed. He slowly raised his eyes, and there was none of the usual bravado or defense in them. Only a timid, unguarded truth.

“You’re just beautiful,” he breathed, his voice lower, almost a whisper. “Even when you’re not trying. Especially when you’re not trying. I can’t stop filming this. And I can’t... stop looking at you. Even when you can’t see. Sorry if this is weird.” He paused, biting his lip, and added more quietly, “But I won’t delete them. Not a single one. And if you get up and leave now... I’ll still keep going. Because you’re the only thing I want to keep.”
