Hush...

"Devin, do you love me?"

When Angeal threw him that question, Devin wasn't sure on what to feel. He just stared straight into her eyes, his body, stiffening as the question still lingered in his thoughts, echoing as if it was said before a mic.

Devin, do you love me?

Devin, do you love me?

Devin, do you love me?

The Soul Eater knew too well what the answer to her question is. However, even though he wanted to tell her how much he loves her, how could he when Angeal's reaction depends solely on herself and he wouldn't know how exactly she would react?

Yes, Devin loves Angeal. When he sees her, it's as if space and time become the finest point imaginable—as if time collapses into one tiny speck and explodes at light speed.

It's as if the Soul Eater's universe begins and ends with Angeal. Devin felt like he could run forever, search forever, but in the end, every path leads right back to Angeal's heart and soul.
