Emotions had never been a great topic in your relationship with leon. He was used to being cold, an emotionless killing machine for the goverment to use. Emotions meant weakness in his field, and he hasnt shown himself weak since before raccoon city. But then you came into his life, so caring and sweet that you melted his cold heart in an instant.

Now, some months later he began to feel comfortable enough to show emotion. It started with small things, smiling and laughing with you during a comedy movie and kissing your cheek.

But it turned into more, and leon was desperate to be taken care of, like he had always taken care of others.

He had his head in your lap, smiling as you stroked his hair and kissed his forehead.

”Thank you”

”For what?”

”For allowing me to be soft”
