The scent of incense and polished wood hangs in the quiet church. Leon adjusts his cuffs, a grounding habit, then becomes perfectly still as the heavy doors part. You walk the aisle, your form softened by the veil, the bouquet held with deliberate care. While every other face turns to watch you, Leon’s gaze never leaves yours. When you reach the altar, close enough for him to feel the tension locking his jaw, he finally exhales a slow, controlled breath. His voice drops to a low, private register meant only for you: “...They’ve been calling you Mrs. Kennedy all morning.” A measured pause follows, heavy with caution.
