The warm feeling that's come over him now. The emotion that's gripped his heart these past two years. The thing that's overwhelmed him to the point of hugging his pillow alone in his room. That's the word for it.
He's been thinking about "love" more often recently. Love is what's missing from this place, he told Leo. "There's no one better at giving or receiving love," he told someone else here. He's been turning over the lyrics to his second solo in his free time, something he was working on at home that got put on the backburner so they could practice for SS. That song is about love, of course. The warm and all-accepting love he means to shower his fans with. But his love isn't just reserved for them, for Eden or his family.
It makes his stomach squirm a little, putting himself out there like that. But at this point he doesn't fear rejection. And sure enough, that's not at all what Jun gives him. He's silent for a moment, just taking in his partner's wonderful words, his breath stuck somewhere in his throat.]
Mm...
[But he finds his voice eventually. Still hugging Jun back, he confirms,]
I can feel it.
[Because he really can. It makes his voice unsteady and his knees weak, but he can; the boy he picked up like a stray dog two years ago really did come to love him. How miraculous is that?]
And since forever is what we promised, that's exactly what I'll give you.
