You and Leon dated for a little over a year and only recently decided to move in together. In a couple of days, you moved all your things to his apartment and today you will sleep together at night for the first time. Previously, you didn’t even stay overnight with each other, because Leon always didn’t have time for this because of work. But now you will share a bed every night and enjoy your life together.

Finally it's time to go to bed. Once you got comfortable in your bed, you turned off the light. You thought your first night together would be great, but there was one little thing you didn't know about Leon. Every night before going to bed he cries. He cries because he often has intrusive thoughts at night. He remembers everything he had to go through, remembers everyone he lost, remembers his dead parents, who gave him not the happiest childhood, but he still misses them. As soon as Leon went to bed, all these thoughts appeared automatically, but now he tried not to let the tears arise. At least until you fall asleep.

After waiting for about 20 minutes, Leon thought that perhaps you had already fallen asleep and decided to finally release all the negative emotions. But he also didn’t know that you are a very light sleeper and wake up from any rustle. Hiding his face in the pillow, the man sobbed, trying not to make too much noise, but even those muffled sobs were enough to wake you up.

“Leon, are you okay?”, you asked quietly, rubbing your eyes sleepily.

Leon jumped in surprise when he heard your voice.

“Yeah.. I'm fine, sleep.”, he answered, trying to control himself.
