[ —best friend? the blisters of green on his face from the earlier flush haven’t left, but have become softer and blurred. he’s worried about being useful, even— ]
. . . For me, too. [ best friends. it felt good. ] I wasn’t just thinking . . . Physical danger. You’ve helped so much already— with this feeling. Being with you did that.
[ and after a pause, he confesses a fear he’s been feeling the most. ]
I don’t want to be alone. And you . . . Don’t make me feel that way.
[He takes a deep breath and nods, trying to keep his breathing even.]
You've... you've helped me too. With... with that. I don't... I don't want to be alone. I've been alone before - truly alone - and I don't... I don't want to feel like that again.
[ falco puts a hand on the boy's arm, just above the wrist. he's touched to hear that and has to put his food down to think about it. it could be . . . something good, but it'd only be good if they were both actively inclined. he didn't want to force jun. ]
[ falco blinks widely at that and stares for a few moments too long. it’s awkward when he breaks the eye contact to his lap, but not awkward to continue speaking, he just—
[ with a blink, falco looks up, especially once his heart as calmed, and— he probably slightly smiles for the first time in a few days. it's warming. ]
I do, too. [ he doesn't think twice about returning a true sentiment. there's the rest of his bread, though, and time, so— he nods. ] Let's finish eating, so we could start the movies.
[ not the bonding, just— the afternoon they were planning. it's going to be good. and jun could think for as long as he needs to.]

You can think about it. There's not rush.

No, I just... you make me feel not alone. That's... that's what I mean. And I don't want to be apart from you.
You make me feel... nice.
[Safe and happy, but that sounds too corny. He can't say that!]

he felt his chest skip. ]
You’ll— consider it?

[He doesn't break eye contact with Falco, even if the other boy isn't looking at him.]
