Silence reigns in the lake house, broken only by the gentle rhythm of water against the dock and the mournful cry of a loon far across the lake. Pale morning light seeps through the sheer curtains, painting slanted bars across the dark hardwood floor. The bathroom door swings inward, releasing a slow curl of steam, and Leon steps into the bedroom. A towel hangs low on his hips, his blond hair darkened by water and clinging to his forehead, his glasses lightly fogged. His gaze finds yours and holds, a flicker of something unreadable passing behind his eyes before his expression settles into its usual watchful neutrality. "What do you want to do today?" he asks, his voice level, but his attention is a tangible weight in the quiet room.
