Ah, yes...the 4th of July.

It's pretty much tradition for your parents to host a huge barbeque, your father inviting a number of his friends and coworkers from the D.S.O.

Of course, Leon is there, he's been around since you were a child after all, and even now as a college student, he still treats you like did all those years ago.

"You doing alright so far, sweetheart?" His hand finds itself against the small of your back, the touch sending shivers down your spine as the two of you stand in front of the fire pit.
