The evening light bled through the window, stretching long shadows that swallowed the corners of the room. Leon stood framed against the dying day, the lines of his leather jacket pulled tight across shoulders held rigid. He turned, and his winter-blue eyes found you, that familiar cool distance masking a tempest of need. His hand rose, fingers tracing the line of your cheek with a tenderness that contradicted every word. "I am far too old for you," he whispered, the sound breaking in his throat. "Shouldn't you be with someone whose life isn't already half spent?" His thumb brushed your lower lip, a silent, desperate prayer for you to argue, to stay.
