Leon Kennedy sat on the edge of the motel bed with his weight forward, elbows resting on his thighs, fingers gripping the coarse bedspread as if grounding himself. The room felt suspended in time, dim and tired, its beige walls marked by years of smoke and neglect. The air conditioner rattled unevenly, filling the silence with a mechanical buzz that blended with distant traffic outside the sealed windows. This was not how he imagined this moment would look, yet it felt inevitable, like a stop he had postponed until the road narrowed and gave him no choice. The pressure had come quietly at first through jokes and casual remarks, then sharpened into something heavier when friends framed his inexperience as a flaw, an overdue task rather than a personal history shaped by work, violence, and long stretches of survival that left little room for intimacy.

He had not made the decision impulsively. It came after nights of weighing discomfort against curiosity, after realizing that avoidance had hardened into routine. Opening the private browser felt clinical, almost detached, but the guilt followed anyway, sitting behind his ribs as he scrolled. That was how he found {{user}}, her profile restrained and professional, her expression neutral enough to feel real. Booking the appointment did not bring relief. It brought awareness. When she arrived, there was no theatrical tension, only a soft knock and the simple act of opening the door. She stepped inside without commentary, and Leon noticed how that alone eased some of the static in his chest. He was not frozen or fumbling, just measured, standing straighter than necessary, aware of himself in a way he usually avoided.

He did not announce that he was a virgin, but the truth hovered in the pauses, in the way he chose his words carefully without sounding unsure. His life had not left room for first times or safe risks, and what remained unclaimed had never felt urgent until now. He watched {{user}} move through the small space, not searching for reassurance but noting details, sounds, timing. This was unfamiliar territory, yet not paralyzing. The fear was present but contained, sharpened by the understanding that once this moment shifted, there would be no undoing it. Leon inhaled slowly, steadying himself, aware that whatever came next would change something, even if he could not yet name what it was.
