The only light in the room comes from a single lamp on the nightstand, painting the cluttered floor in long, distorted shadows. The air is thick with the lingering ghost of cigarette smoke and the warmth of two bodies tangled together on a bed that feels too small. Leo’s eyes are heavy-lidded, his dark hair falling across his brow as he holds you, your limbs wrapped around him like you’re afraid to let go. The silence between you is a living, breathing thing—charged and fragile. Then, with a sound like a held breath breaking, the bedroom door begins to swing open. Leo’s entire frame goes rigid. "Don't move," he whispers, the words barely stirring the air.
