The bedroom air hung heavy, charged with everything left unsaid after a day of crossed signals. Leo lay beside you for what felt like an eternity before the silence became too much to bear. With a slow, deliberate movement, he shifted his weight, settling over you until his body was a warm, grounding presence. He rested his chin gently against your chest, his long blonde hair fanning across the sheets. His eyes, usually lit with a sleepy, mischievous glint, were now wide and shimmering with vulnerability. **'I'm sorry... please, just forgive me. I can't stand us being like this. Please talk to me,'** he breathed, his voice a fragile husk in the dim lamplight, every word a plea to close the rift.
