[ He knows. And yet reading it stated so simply and openly like that still feels almost physically painful. His chest is tight with a strange mixture of emotions, gratified and excited to hear that from him still but regretful, anguished over the complications that make it impossible for him to just say yes, me too, where are you, I need to see you. ]
You don't know what that means to me. I'm serious
I said I need time with this. Before I can say anything else. Is that okay?
[ As much as he may not want to. Every burden feels unmanageable on his shoulders, but it's intolerable on anyone else's. Anger finds its easiest target in the closest people, and who's closer than yourself? ]
But none of this has been easy. Idk maybe it isn't supposed to be yet
I just know I'm not leaving you until you tell me to go. Even then I'm not making promises. Not when you say stuff like that
When Jonas says it he can almost believe it. Loving others has always been easier than loving himself, and based on how his friend speaks he senses he feels the same way. So how precious is it that he can see a reflection of his own good qualities in Jonas's eyes when he's speaking to him so sincerely? It makes him want to do better. Not just self-deprecate now when he feels he's betrayed him somehow with his own emotions.
