The dim afternoon light seeped through the half-drawn curtain, casting long, slender shadows across the floor of Leo's bedroom. Silence hung heavy, broken only by the uneven rhythm of his breathing and the faint creak of the mattress as he shifted.

He swallowed hard, his words emerging as a fractured whisper: "you, can you come over? Please. I need you here with me." He waited, heart pounding a frantic rhythm against the silence, for your reply.
