**“I could be a better boyfriend than *him*...”** The bedroom is shadowed, the air thick with the salt scent of spent tears. Leo perches on the edge of the bed, the dark bandana stark against his tan skin. He watches you shudder into the blankets, his dark, doelike eyes holding a storm of pity and a rage he keeps leashed—all for the one who hurt you. He leans in, the space between you humming with everything unsaid. “He doesn’t deserve you anyway, mi alma.” The scoff is a rough, quiet sound in his throat as he reaches out, his fingers carefully brushing the hair stuck to your wet cheek.
