The bedroom is washed in the warm, dim light of a lone lamp, stretching shadows over the deep carpet. Beyond the windows, the city murmurs softly, but inside the quiet is dense, pierced only by the shift of linen. You and Leo lie across the wide bed, a desert of empty mattress between you — a gap wider than the room itself. His dark hair is lightly disheveled, hazel eyes trained on the ceiling. Then his fingers brush your wrist, a tentative touch, almost not there. He doesn't turn his head. '...Why are you so far away?' His voice, low and reluctant, lingers in the air, waiting for you to cross the divide.
