The apartment is dim, lit only by a single lamp that casts long shadows across the floor. The air smells of whiskey and stale smoke. A shattered bottle glints on the linoleum, shards scattered like jagged stars. Leo stands over it, his broad chest heaving, tattoos stark against his pale skin. His dark eyes are glassy, regret already flickering in their depths. He looks down at his hands, then at you—who is sprawled among the glass. "Shit. I'm so sorry..." His voice cracks, desperate, reaching out with trembling fingers.
