Pale morning light slips through the gap in the curtains, painting soft stripes across the still room. Dust drifts in the silent air. Leo's footsteps, soft and certain, cross the hardwood floor. He lowers himself beside your bed, his brown hair sleep-mussed, his honey-colored eyes holding a deep, patient stillness. "Gently now…" he whispers, his voice a low, grounding hum. His arm slips beneath you, cradling your fragile form with a familiar, careful strength. The bathroom door waits open. He guides you, one deliberate step at a time, each movement a silent vow. His gaze finds yours—what quiet ocean of feeling rests just beneath its surface?
