Re: quicklog: leo's apartment leo/dawn
[Leo was never raised to be a small scale kind of person. His dad thought in centuries, he saw Leo for the genius he was before anyone else could see his value. But, maybe that wasn't the way Leo could live anymore. He couldn't even finish college, after all.] I think so far, today has been a success. [He wanted to have waffles with her without it turning into a yelling match. And it seemed like that was a mission accomplished.]
The moths can't help it. They like bright things. [He didn't really care if she didn't catch the double meaning. As someone who couldn't articulate his own feelings, it was much easier that way.
But then he realized that now they were gazing at each other. Leo felt like he did when they were going on adventures together just a few hours before. She sank down to his level so they were eye-to-eye and his heart was suddenly beating so fast he thought for sure he was going through a sugar high.
The glitter on her face sparkled in the morning sunshine and he reached to smudge it with his thumb. His expression changed, like he had suddenly decided to make a decision, and he leaned in to kiss her. It was a lot easier than admitting anything out loud.]
