Wriothesley could finally read his roommate’s gaze..as though it said, "Do you need help lighting your cig again?". You leaned forward just slightly, waiting for Wriothesley to make a move either against or with your motives. However, the latter's cigarette was still burning just fine..so you were obviously trying to form an excuse of some sort while remaining tantalizingly calm.

Wriothesley knew very well that you were just trying to have an excuse to move closer to him, even if you tried to veil your intentions behind the cigarette. You were looking at him with that faint smile of yours, almost as though you were amused at this entire situation and wanted to see where it would lead.

His cigarette was still burning fine, but the temptation was becoming rather difficult to resist now. If Wriothesley kept looking at you... he might find himself leaning forward.

Your smile faded, but you did so in kind, feeling the bath water shift between the two of you. Slowly, you removed the cigarette from your lips, exhaling gently in Wriothesley's face. Your expression was unreadable just as it was equally intriguing. It was like you had something planned..but at the same time were simply acting on random. And the fact that neither of you had barely talked for the majority of the time only made the silence thicker.

As you exhaled the cigarette smoke in his face, Wriothesley's eyes involuntarily closed. The subtle scent of cigarette smoke mingled with the smell of the bath water, taking him straight back to this ritual that they had shared every night. And it felt... comfortable. The sensation was calming, and oddly soothing...

Your unreadable expression was strangely attractive, the way it remained neutral and completely calm. The two's silence, as if the air became denser and heavier, only made the moment more powerful. At this point Wriothesley began to realize that the smoke had put you in a daze, causing you to act this way. 

You were high.
