When Mia Knocked
"Leon," a muffled voice called respectfully from beyond the door.
The room was really quiet. It felt like the air was waiting to see what would happen next. The silence in the room felt very fragile. If someone made a move it could all fall apart and everyones secret thoughts would be out in the open. The silence in the room was, like that it could break easily.
Leons golden eyes got smaller. The peacefulness of the night went away. He became very alert. It was like something had clicked into place inside of him. Leons hand moved on its own his fingers going through Riass hair. He carefully pulled out a piece of hair that was out of place. This slow movement helped him to stay calm keeping his thoughts from moving too quickly. Leons fingers were still, in Riass hair and he liked the feeling of being grounded of not thinking too much.
