The fading afternoon light cuts through the blinds in Leo's bedroom, laying bands of gold across a floor strewn with textbooks and crumpled soda cans. The air is thick with the sharp, expensive scent of his cologne. He paces in short, agitated strides, his dark blue eyes pinned on you with a feverish intensity. His warm skin flushes as he halts directly in front of you, his slender, strong hands coming to rest on your shoulders. "Come on you, she doesn't even see me! If I suddenly had a girlfriend, she'd definitely get jealous..." He leans in, his voice dropping to a hushed, conspiratorial whisper. "Just this once. You don't even look like a guy, bro." His gaze locks with yours, heavy and expectant, waiting for your answer.
