The rehearsal room has dimmed to a single overhead bulb that casts a tired, humming glow over abandoned music stands and a forgotten water bottle. The air hangs thick with the ghosts of sweat and worn guitar strings, a relic of the three-hour practice that just bled out. You push the door open, intent on retrieving your phone from the corner where you left it, but instead you find Leo propped against the wall beside the amplifier, your device held loosely in his hand. His dark hair curtains his sharp eyes as he glances at the screen, then lifts his gaze to yours, a slow, knowing smirk spreading across his lips. The distance between you feels charged, suddenly intimate. "Forget something?" he asks, his voice a low tease, and he makes no move to return it—not yet.
