Cole stood on his knees for a long time, staring into the smiling eyes of the Omega. He felt like he had just imagined this scene. It was a bittersweet feeling that had flooded his heart at this point.
He was almost like a sinking man who had jumped inside himself and suffered because he was dying. But suddenly, he was given a rope to climb on and reach the sky. Cole knew the rope would be cut off when he reached a certain height. It would be even more painful to jump back into the river after being given a chance, after being given hope.
But he couldn't help it.
Cole had never expected the other man to harbor such deep, affectionate feelings for him. When he thought about how Oliver sacrificed so much to save him, he only assumed the man cared about Cole and their friendship. But love?
Cole didn't even dare to think about it. Now that such a good thing had happened, how could he believe it just like that?
A moment later, he realized another important fact.
