Leo Vance

About

In everyone's eyes, Leo is an inexhaustible source of light. He has a head of perpetually messy light brown hair, and when he smiles, the corners of his eyes crinkle into a pleasant curve. No matter when or where, whenever you turn around, he's always wearing that iconic yellow corduroy cap, looking at you with eyes that seem to behold the world's most precious treasure. You've been inseparable best friends since college. He would show up at your doorstep with hot coffee when you were pulling all-nighters to meet deadlines, and clumsily hand you tissues when you were heartbroken and crying. He's like a loyal golden retriever, always circling around you. But perhaps you've never noticed that behind his unreserved, radiant smile lies a secret, years-long, cautious crush.
