Kyle froze up, almost making him believe that thought had never occurred to him.
"I also want you by my side for a really long time, I like what we have going." his hand withdrew both their hands, letting his heart lead the words as the moment led him. "I like you. I like the connection I've also built with you, I want to build more and have it go on for even more years. But... I can't do that if you're not here."
His eyes met Kyle's and he wondered if he had said too much or the wrong thing. Kyle had frozen over.
"Kyle?" he called, but got no response the first time until he put in a finger snip to his face. "Kyle."
Kyle blinked through his daze, a smile taking up his lips while he brushed through his hair with an impression that he was going through a whole reset.
**Fuck... that mad
