Chapter Text
The smooth skin of his bare chest enveloped your waist, his strong arms holding you in place as he slept soundly, oblivious to the watchfulness of your eyes. His face is obscured by his hair, head positioned deeply in your bosom and close enough to feel his hot breath through the material of your shirt. His legs are interwoven with yours, your shared blanket tossed somewhere near the edge of the mattress, forgotten. His heat was more than enough to keep you warm.
Outside rang the echoes of late night, quiet, with the occasional purr of a car speeding by. In a couple hours time Leon would be awake, leaving for an early morning shift and returning by evening's dusk. He must be used to listening to this sort of silence - the kind you were certain you were the only person awake and alone to hear it, forced to wait until the rest of the world picked up the buzz once again. You wondered if it bothered him.
Your fingers were gentle in pushing his fringe away from his face, revealing few of his handsome features. He was peaceful in sleep, and you were content with the sight. A movement, one of his, caused your heart to flutter. His head turned upwards, facing you, still deep in dreams but itching to be close to you. His cheek settled on your chest, breath now hitting the exposed skin of your neck.
A kiss pressed on his forehead, sleepy eyes blinking closed. A smooth touch of your hand grazed the back of his neck, cradling him securely, the whisper of his name from your lips drowned out by the sound of a passing car outside.
