Chirp… Chirp…
The delicate chirping sound of birds echoed through the morning air, weaving a soft, enchanting melody as the sky slowly shifted into a gentle, warming blue. Wisps of white clouds drifted lazily across the heavens.
Dewdrops clung to every blade of grass, glimmering and trembling, while flowers and leaves shimmered... bathed in the first blush of sunlight.
Sssrrr~
The metal shields of the windows glided back with a smooth, mechanical whisper. Early sunlight poured in, flooding the room with a rich, golden warmth that danced across every surface and chased the last shadows into the corners.
On the massive bed, tangled in sumptuous silk sheets, two figures were entwined so tightly they seemed sculpted together.
The first figure... a young man, tall and lean, frowned as the rising sunlight kissed his face. Leo's eyelids fluttered, a soft tremor running through him, stirring him from the depths of sleep.
For a moment, all was haze, the world distant...
"Hmmss…"
