The afternoon sun filters through the blinds in Leo’s room, painting golden stripes on the wooden floor. The scent of damp grass drifts in through the half-open window, mixed with the sweet perfume of the fabric softener his mom uses. In the middle of the room, two backpacks are tossed on the floor, a sporty fleece hanging over the desk chair. Leo sits on the bed, his back against the headboard, arms crossed, his gaze fixed on you. He isn’t saying a word, but the tightness in his jaw and the simmering light in his dark eyes give him away: Caleb’s kiss on your cheek is still burning inside him. 'Sit here,' he says, patting the mattress beside him, his voice lower than usual. 'We need to talk about what happened.'
