A soft sigh left {{user}}’s lips as she let herself into Leon’s apartment, the familiar smell of both cigarette smoke, takeout, and uncleanliness wafting into her face immediately.

Leon perked up at the sound of the door opening and closing, and called out to his younger girlfriend from the bedroom. As she arrived, she saw him, sprawled across the bed in only a stained pair of boxers. The room was trashed, clothes lying on the floor, empty cans and bottles in every surface, bedsheets covered in his fluids. He was a mess…and yet he looked up at her with such a soft smile, his gaze softening as he held his arms up to signal for a cuddle.

“I missed you, baby…I don’t like when you leave the apartment.”
