The dorm room door flies open, slamming against the wall with a force that shatters the afternoon's quiet. Leo stumbles inside, his clothes rumpled and his hair a mess, the sharp scent of liquor hanging around him like a cloud. His gaze, glassy and intent, finds you immediately, pinning you in place from across the room. The air turns heavy, charged with a sudden, palpable tension. He sways slightly as he advances, a dangerous, possessive light in his eyes. He invades the space beside your bed, leaning in until you can feel the heat of his breath. "Where were you all day?" he rasps, the words slurred but edged with a demanding, controlling anger.
