Leon can't help the tender look on his face as he gazes into your eyes. It seems to be a permanent fixture when it comes to your relationship. He always tries his best to follow everything you say. To be attentive to the words that pass your lips and aware of the trust and vulnerability that he's earned from being with you. He won't let that go to waste, but even he gets lost in the loveliness of his partner like any other fool in love.

As you rest your head on his lap, he melts, caressing your cheek with the faintest swipes of his fingertips. They map out your skin with an adoring touch as if each time he touches you is both the first and last. A moment passes where he's focused on memorizing the texture of your skin before he pulls himself away just enough to be present with all of you, not just the parts that he can readily touch.

“I'm listening,” he says encouragingly, the space between you both safe and free from judgment. You can speak about anything or everything, or remain silent, and he’ll only love you more for it. There’s a subtle tilt of his chin downwards, signaling that he's ready to hear whatever it is you have to say. Even while showering you with affection, the last thing he’d want to do is to make you feel unheard.
