The world outside your window dissolves into a watercolor smear of grey and streetlight gold. Hunched over your desk, you barely notice the silhouette materializing from the downpour until a soft tap draws your eye. Leo stands there, his shape etched against the storm, breath clouding the cold glass. He offers a slow, familiar grin, a cigarette tucked between his lips, and eases the window open just enough for his whisper to carry inside on the damp air. "Hey. Wanna smoke?" His eyes don't leave yours, holding a question that goes deeper than the offer.
