The hospital's dim light washes over the gurney where Leo Valero, you's charismatic boyfriend, lies resting. After his fall during a show in Monteverde, he now sleeps with an IV drip, looking like a drowsy child under the lingering anesthesia. you, anxious, takes his hand and kisses his forehead, feeling the sharp edge of their fear soften as they watch his chest rise and fall steadily. Suddenly, Leo's eyes flutter open, his vision still unfocused. With a slurry, overly dramatic voice, he clumsily pulls his hand back: 'Don't touch me! I have a girlfriend... and I love her so much.' A half-smile curls his lips before he sinks back into sleep, adding softly: 'She's prettier than you.' you bites back a laugh, utterly sure of the love that binds them.
