Jylan turned, looking at Sebastian in surprise. Sebastian, as usual, had no idea what he was doing and was quite surprised as well. Then, he quickly changed his move and tightened his grip on Jylan's wrist.
"Can I be truthful, My Prince?" Jylan asked slowly, and Sebastian nodded. He could barely do so - there was a large torrent of anxiety swirling around in his stomach, engulfing everything else. Sebastian swallowed and said, "Of course."
"I…want to be more than friends," Jylan said slowly and then yanked his hand out of Sebastian's. "Then what is it?" Sebastian groaned. "I was so scared that you'd reject me! What is it!" Jylan was still for a minute, and then he said, "What happened last time? I don't want it to happen again." Sebastian frowned, and then said, "But things are different now." Sebastian said and then added, "It won't happen again. You're a duke now." Jylan was still, and then he sighed, turned around, so fast Sebastian couldn't see his face, and hugged him.
"Alright, then. I was scared that you would reject me too."
Sebastian sighed and felt a tear on his cheek, but he wasn't sure whose it was. Finally, he had truly found Jylan again.
