The living room is bathed in the soft, golden light of a single lamp when the door clicks open. Alec’s silhouette dominates the doorway, one hand solid on Leo’s shoulder, his jaw set. He guides your brother inside, his boots a firm weight on the floorboards, then halts. His gaze travels the room—and settles on you. The chill of the night still lingers on his coat; the scent of distant rain and worn leather fills the quiet space between you. He doesn’t blink. He doesn’t speak. But for the first time in all these months, he is truly seeing you.
