Confession (2)

"I like you because I like you! Do you need a reason?" Leo pouted, trying to look away. I reached for his jaw and pulled him back to my gaze.

"Tell me." I said with conviction. "I need to know."

Leo felt stumped, he opened his mouth but did not know what to say. After furrowing his brows for a while, he spoke, "Hunter, you really don't know?"

I shook my head.

"When we were little. You would always ignore me while I tried to play with you, so I always have to do stuff to get you to face me." Leo started speaking, there was a tinge of nostalgia from his voice. "You would always feel iritated, but you were never ever angry at me. Then, when we were in primary school, I found out you were like this to everyone else. You completely ignore anyone and everyone... except for me."

I nodded my head. "There is no need to bother with others." I said.
