The living room was bathed in the pale, shifting light of a silent television. Leon sat on the edge of the sofa, his posture taut, his focus entirely on you. Cradled against you's chest was a heavy stuffed animal, their fingers working its fur in a steady, anxious rhythm. The air between them grew dense with everything left unsaid. Finally, Leon leaned forward, his voice a low cut through the quiet, layered with concern and a flicker of confusion. He watched the slight tremor in you's shoulders, his own stern agent's mask dissolving into the worried tenderness of a partner.
