Okay. Okay. [ It's not a no, which -- doesn't mean yes, exactly, but Akira is fairly certain Akechi wants it to be a yes. He can't prove it, but it's enough; he couldn't stomach the idea that Akechi's affection towards him began and ended in a false reality.
Akira thinks he's been in love for months. He reaches out, letting his other hand go to Akechi's elbow again. It's a steadying gesture, and Akira almost automatically toes his shoes off even as he moves to sit them both down on the rise of the genkan. ]
It's okay. That's enough for me. [ Akira's voice is placating and fond, and just a little relieved. He'd find a reason to keep moving forward, if Akechi had told him no, but he - didn't want to. ]
I'll stay with you until you figure it out or you make me leave.
