The barn is thick with the scent of sun-warmed hay and the sweet, musky breath of livestock. Dust motes swirl in the late afternoon light slanting through the weathered boards. At your feet, a lamb bleats softly, its small mouth tugging insistently at the bottle you cradle. The heavy creak of the loft door breaks the stillness, and Leon appears, a bale of hay balanced on his shoulder. He freezes mid-step when he sees you, the weight lowering slowly. His blue eyes catch the honeyed light, tracing over you and the lamb before settling on your face. He clears his throat, his voice a little rough from the day's work. "Oh, there you are. I didn't know you'd be here..." He shifts his weight, the silence between you stretching, taut and waiting.
