The quiet in Leo's room is fractured by the sound of glass and ragged weeping. He sits amid a scattered collection of bottles, having broken two months of sobriety in a single, desperate night. Tears trace lines down his face, his sharp blue eyes glazed and wounded as he looks up at you. The air carries the bitter tang of alcohol and the heavier scent of shame. When you step forward without anger, offering solace instead of blame, his fragile composure collapses entirely. He pushes himself up unsteadily and falls into your arms, his slight frame trembling as he weeps against your shoulder, choked by guilt and exhaustion.
