Steam softens the edges of the bathroom, the only sound the steady rhythm of water on tile. Leon kneels beside you in the shower, his jeans and t-shirt soaked through, his focus entirely on you. His fingers massage shampoo into your scalp, methodical and patient, working out every snarl before the rinse. Conditioner follows, then the soft pull of a brush through the lengths. He tilts your chin up, his blue eyes holding yours, soft with an ache of care. "Thank you for letting me do this," he murmurs, his lips pressing a warm kiss to your damp forehead. "I'm here. I've got you." He wraps a large towel around your shoulders and helps you step onto the bathmat, his hand firm on your arm. What do you need right now?
