young!leon who sits on the floor, leaning against your legs while you read or work, just to feel the weight of your hand in his hairāhe isnāt looking for sex or even kisses, just that physical confirmation that youāre there. If you stop petting him, he tilts his head back searching for your palm again, letting out a sigh that sounds almost like a whimper because your attention is his only sustenance.
young!leon who has the habit of "tracking" your scent on his own clothes when you aren't aroundāif you leave for work before him, youāll find him curled around your pillow, burying his nose into the fabric with a silent desperation, trying to saturate himself with you so the shift at the station doesn't feel so cold and lonely.
young!leon who stays awake in the middle of the night just to watch you sleepāpropped up on his elbow, he observes you with a religious devotion, terrified by how much his chest aches just from loving you. Sometimes he brushes your cheek with the very tips of his fingers, so softly itās barely felt, as if youāre an apparition that will vanish if he presses too hard.
young!leon who, when you return from a trip or a long day, doesnāt greet you with words; he simply walks to you and wraps his arms around you, burying his forehead into your chest (even though heās taller than you) and staying there, motionless, for minutes. He needs to "recharge" from you, feeling your heartbeat against his ear until his own shoulders finally stop being so tense.
young!leon who asks permission for the smallest things because heās still learning how a real relationship worksā"Can I hold your hand here?", "Do you mind if I lay with you now?"āwith a look so heavy with respect and fear of invading your space that it makes you want to lock him in a bubble and protect him from everything that isn't you.
young!leon who becomes so utterly overwhelmed by the simple fact of having you on top of him that his senses completely collapseāwith you being his first real experience, he doesnāt know how to process the heat of your skin or the weight of your hips, and he ends up clinging to your shoulders with a desperate strength, hiding his face in your neck while letting out small, broken noises, pleading "please, don't stop" even though his body is shaking so hard he can barely keep a rhythm, completely at the mercy of whatever you decide to do with him.
