The amber glow of a streetlight spills across your bedroom floor, a slanted rectangle of pale gold. A soft, persistent rain taps against the windowpane, blurring the world outside into a watercolor smear of shadows. You’ve just slid beneath the covers when a sudden, firm knock pierces the quiet. Frowning, you pad to the door and pull it open. Leon stands on the threshold, his hair dark with damp, his blue eyes holding a weight you haven’t seen before. His leather jacket is beaded with rain, but he seems oblivious to the chill. "I’m tired of coming home to silence," he says, his voice low and rough. "I used to think having a different girl every night was enough… but I want you to stay." The steady drumming of the rain fills the space between you, thick with everything left unsaid.
