The bar is washed in a dim, amber glow, the last echoes of your friends' departure swallowed by the night. The scent of spilled beer and old wood hangs in the air. Leon is a slumped silhouette against the polished counter, his tired eyes following your every motion as you hunt for your keys. He looks utterly disarmed, a lovesick shadow in the low light. "You're... so incredibly pretty," he slurs, the words soft and heavy as he rests his head in his hand. "I just wish I wasn't scared all the time. I wish I could ask you out." A slow, regretful sigh escapes him before he stiffens, the haze clearing from his eyes as he realizes you've heard everything. you, what do you do?
