“no, I didn’t know…”
He drops the card and rests his head on his pillow. “I just . . . I just don’t know what to think, Oliver.”
Oliver cries softly
Ash looks over and wipes his tears.
Oliver held him.
Ash’s tail wraps around Oliver’s as he held his lower back. “Let’s just push it to the side for now, okay?” he says.
Oliver nods
Ash kisses his forehead. His markings faintly glowed turquoise.
He smiled, and began to calm
“There’s that beaming smile 'a yours,” He says, his tone lightening up.
Oliver laughs softly.
Ash smiles and warms up. “I love it even more when you’re like this, just smiling and laughing.”
“thanks.”
Ash kisses him briefly on the mouth. “Never lose that smile.”
“and you never lose yours.”
Ash blushes and curls up a little bit. I guess I should’ve seen that coming, at least he seems happier.
Oliver lay beside him
“Oliver . . . I hope I’m an okay boyfriend to you.” Way to break the ice.
“the best.”
Ash smiles. “I’m glad it’s mutual then. Really, you’re just the best for me as well. Whatever happens, I love you and always will, okay?”
