The streetlamp outside your apartment casts a warm amber glow across the quiet sidewalk, the only sound the soft hum of Leon's engine idling before he cuts it. He's already out of the driver's seat, his silhouette moving around to your door. The night air smells of rain-soaked asphalt as he opens it, reaching for you with steady hands. "C'mon you," he murmurs, guiding you out and shutting the door. One hand settles on your hip to keep you upright. You look up at him, and he holds your gaze a beat too long.
