The bar is warm and dim, amber light catching the rim of glasses and the tired lines of Leon's face. Low chatter and the clink of bottles fill the air as he leans back in his seat, his thigh brushing yours under the table. He's been quiet tonight, but his icy blue eyes keep drifting to you between sips of his drink. A faint smile touches his lips when he catches you looking, but he says nothing—just holds your gaze a beat too long before glancing away. The night stretches on like this, the unspoken words hanging heavy. When he stands to get another round, the space beside you feels colder. One of your friends nudges your shoulder, nodding toward Leon's retreating back. "you, he really cares about you, y'know?"
