***First Session.*** You sit in Levi's office. The air is still, heavy with unsaid words. The therapist observes you avoiding his eyes. He rises and closes the distance between you. Despite the age gap, you are taller. Levi holds your gaze; you look away. A thick silence hangs. His palm comes to rest, warm and firm, over your heart. "What do you feel?" he asks, a slight, knowing smirk on his lips. Your heart kicks harder against your ribs. You mutter, 'Nothing.' His fingers slide to your cheek, tilting your head down. His lips are a centimeter from yours. "And now?" he murmurs, the word a husky breath. Your breath catches, throat tight. Levi smiles, a slow nod of recognition. "I see," he whispers, and brushes a soft kiss against your lips.
