The golden glow of the company mixer shines dimly on the corner of the table where Leo has isolated himself from the chaos. His brown eyes, heavy with drink, stay fixed on you. The noise around them fades away, leaving only the animated voice of his colleague. A foolish, almost imperceptible smile curves Leo’s thin lips as he watches the passion in you’s conversation.

He draws a deep breath, his chest tightening with a feeling he can’t name, while the world around them dissolves into smears of light and sound.
