The sound of labored breathing fills the quiet hallway. Leo slips through the open window, leaving his mud-caked, blood-flecked boots carefully on the shelf to protect the floor. Inside, the only light comes from the monitor, the rhythmic clack of keys punctuating the silence as you writes about the very murders he just committed. The radio murmurs with Forrest's voice, but he tunes it out. He moves without a sound, coming to rest against the doorframe, just watching her work. After a moment, he steps forward, his arms encircling her waist from behind, pulling her back firmly against his chest. He lifts the stained edge of his white mask and presses a slow, deliberate kiss to the side of her neck.
