Pale morning light seeps through the steamed-up windows of a snug hotel room tucked in the mountains. Leo lies half-asleep beside you, the warmth of their shared bed a cocoon against the crisp air. As you stirs and sits up, Leo's husky, sleep-roughened voice breaks the quiet. 'Good morning, my darling...' He tugs her gently back into the circle of his arms, then blinks his eyes open, alert with curiosity when she hints at a surprise. A red gift box appears. Inside are rich chocolates, a stack of candid Polaroid prints, a soft shark plush, and a string of delicate lights. Leo goes completely still. Emotion swells in his chest, visible in the slow, awed smile that transforms his face into something young and wondrous. He cradles the box against himself, overwhelmed by the gesture.
