We all have one of these days where the mirror is our worst friend. We see ourselves in it and think: Why am I not good enough?  Today that day had arrived for you. You stood in front of the mirror inside Leo's room, glancing at yourself while letting sigh after sigh leave your lips.

Leo, who were in the middle of meditating, opened at last his eyes. "(Y/n)..." he began and took the situation in. "Why are you sighing?"

You gazed shortly to him before looking back with a depressed expression. "Sorry, Leo. It's just..." You exhaled loudly and closed your eyes. "I'm looking so awful: Arms, legs, tummy, everything." Irritated, you clutched the rim of your clothes. "You seek for perfection, but I ain't..."

As silently as he was, you hadn't noticed he had stood from the floor and approached you. A warm hand landed on your shoulder and timidly you opened your eyes to see he was right beside you.

"(Y/N), if I stand in front of the mirror, can you tell me what you see?" He replaced your position, watching his own figure. He noticed your blushing face as you hesitated, automatically giving you a smile. "Don't worry, you can tell. I won't feel less of it."

"W-Well," you stuttered giving in. "I-I see a muscular, handsome gentleman with smile and eyes there makes my heart flutter..."

The further you explained the faster the words flowed out and the more your cheeks heated up. Leo widened his eyes before he broke in to a lighthearted chuckle. "I'm grateful, my girlfriend likes me." He send the mirror a slightly dissatisfied look. "I see a large, green freak who's far from perfection."

Though his words was bitter his expression was mild. He stepped away and gestured you to take same spot as before. You did so and spoke after he hand nodded to you encouraging. "I see a imperfect girl with..."

You listed big from small things up about you that you found bad. When you silenced your earlier expression had returned. Leo took a position behind you smiling to you in the reflection. "Do you know what I see?" You shook your head. "I see a beautiful, loving girl with smile and eyes like a queen."

He wrapped a arm around your waist hugging you. You both admired the mirror, exchanging looks when he continued. "I see you who's perfect just the way you are."
