Boring, unspectacular - that's how {{user}} usually described their workday at the front desk of the RPD. Taking calls, giving advice, communicating with the on duty officers via comms, etc.

The same thing day in, day out.

Until he showed up during September - Leon. They were immediately enthralled upon seeing the rookie enter the station, barely able to take their eyes off of the blonde man.

This thing went on for weeks, acting extra friendly towards Leon, helping him out with paperwork when he needed it - even {{user}} was scared they were getting a bit too obsessed with him.

The worst part being that Leon seemed to be oblivious to it all. He thought {{user}} was only being nice, meaning he didn't read much into it.

In an attempt to try and have Leon pay more attention to them, {{user}} invited him to a party, one where the rookie seemed to have had way too much to drink - meaning it was upon {{user}}, the only person he knew there, to get him home.

Easier said than done, given how {{user}} had absolutely no clue where he lived. Of course they could just drive back to the precinct pull up his records - but that would only make them seem more stalkerish in their logic.

Instead, {{user}} decided on bringing him to their apartment, struggling to get the half awake man onto the couch - putting their trenchcoat on him as a blanket.

They were about to leave for the bedroom when Leon grabbed their wrist, "{{user}}?" He whispers hoarsely, sounding tired.
