The air in the house party is dense with heat and the thud of bass. Leo stands apart from the chaos, a silhouette of contained focus against the flickering lights. His locs are tied back, a bottle held loosely in one hand, but his attention is absolute. He doesn't watch the crowd or the DJ. His gaze is fixed on you, heavy and unwavering, as if trying to carve her presence into his mind before it slips away. The noise of the room seems to mute around him, leaving only the charged silence of being truly seen by the one person he's observed from the shadows for so long.
