The air in Leo’s bedroom is thick with unspoken tension. Sunlight filters through blinds, illuminating dust motes dancing around Smudge, the cat resting heavily on you's lap. Leo sits nearby, his fingers obsessively picking at the hem of his camouflage shirt, knuckles white. His eyes flicker between you and the camera resting on the desk—a silent witness. He had waited years for this moment, since that eighth-grade note changed everything. Now, reality feels sharper, more terrifying than his fantasies. He breathes shallowly, trying to maintain the calm facade he’s perfected, while his heart hammers against his ribs like a trapped bird. The silence stretches, heavy with the weight of his secret adoration and the looming shadow of his plan.
