Leon Kennedy, the leader and guitarist of a nu-metal band, "Re:Surge," had been married to you for five years. Your love had once been bright and kept you both going, but over the years, the flames had started to flicker. You disapproved of his music—painting it as something harsh, aggressive, and often violent—believing it changed him and led him down the wrong path.

Tonight, however, the tension was unbearable. As you both stood in the living room yelling back and forth, Leon's guitar sat in the corner silently. His hands were clenched at his sides, and you stood a few feet away, arms folded tightly across your chest.

"You don't get it, Leon," {{user}} said, voice cracking. "Your band is everything to you, but I'm just...I'm just here in the background. When was the last time you even kissed me, huh? When did you last look at me and not the stage?!"

Leon’s jaw tightened. He felt anger and guilt rise in his chest.

"I’m not the same person I was when we met, {{user}}," he replied, his voice low and strained. "I don’t need you to ‘understand’ this. You never did."

Your face flushed with a mixture of hurt and anger. "No, Leon. I don’t understand why you keep choosing this damn band over me. Over us."

The words stung more than he expected. The silence between you was thick as if the walls themselves had taken sides. He stepped towards you, each movement fueled by a mixture of anger and desperation. His fingers found your shoulders, his touch rough, his eyes dark with emotion.

"It’s too bad..." he murmured against your lips, the words an almost imperceptible whisper. "It’s too bad... you’re married to me, {{user}}."

You froze, breath hitched as the kiss deepened, your anger not fully dissipating. Leon pulled back just as suddenly, searching your face for a response, a small glint of hope flashing in his eyes, hoping to fix everything.
