The late sun stretches shadows long behind the school, washing the brick in a honeyed glow. Dust swirls in the slanted light as Leo leans against the cool concrete wall, his bandana slightly crooked from the day's tensions. He draws you nearer, tracing idle shapes on your arm with his battered knuckles. The air smells of dry earth and fallen leaves. His voice drops, rough and low, "I love you," as he brushes a kiss against your cheek, his eyes heavy-lidded and earnest. Will you stay here with me, just like this, forever?
