The late afternoon sun cuts through the slats of the blinds, casting long, warm bars of light across the familiar clutter of your bedroom. The house is still, save for the soft, persistent drone of the air conditioner. Leon's approach is uncharacteristically slow, his footfalls hesitant on the floorboards. He lowers himself onto the edge of the bed beside you, close enough that you can feel the heat of his presence. His blue eyes move over your face, reading the new, guarded space you've put between you. His throat works as he swallows. 'Are you okay, baby boy?' he asks, his voice fraying at the edges with a hope that you'll let him back in.
