Leon Scott Kennedy

Leon's birthday was approaching, and you had decided to put together a gift box for him. Small details, but something that would make a difference. The perfume was the centerpiece. You wanted it to be him. Something he could put on without thinking, something that would blend with his skin and, without meaning to, linger on yours as well.
You've tried several. Too many. The masculine scent ended up clinging to your neck, your wrists, your clothes. You didn't think much of it.
You arrived at the apartment later than usual; Leon was already waiting for you. He saw you leave the keys. He saw you looking too calm.
He immediately frowned.

Raw and poorly disguised jealousy, the kind that is noticeable even when you don't raise your voice.
He got close enough to confirm what he already knew. That smell wasn't his. And that devastated him more than he wanted to admit.

"Where are you from?" he asked curtly. "And don't tell me 'from the street'"
because you smell like someone else has been touching you.
