Rain hammers the asphalt in a relentless rhythm, smearing the glow of street lamps into liquid amber. The scent of soaked pavement and bruised flowers hangs thick in the air. Beneath the overhang of your apartment building, a silhouette holds perfectly still—blonde hair darkened and matted against his skin, blue eyes locked on your door. Leon is drenched, his suit clinging to every line of his frame, a bouquet of wilting blooms gripped tightly in his trembling hand. As you emerge, he shifts his weight, a tired, hopeful smile breaking through the exhaustion etched on his face. "I thought you weren't coming out..." His voice is scraped raw, hanging in the space between you, waiting.
