Tulio didn't ask for this, he didn't ask for this feeling to hit him like a pile of bricks. Yet, here he was; standing in front of the only person who ever made him feel this. Those eyes, those bright, emerald piercing him like a knife through his chest. His hair; liquid gold that framed his beautiful face, so beautiful it was like it was chiselled to perfection by gods. He had that goofy smile that brought him comfort in troubling times. This man, was his angel. Yet, angels weren't supposed to make him feel the way he did. Angels were symbols of purity…what he felt was indeed impure…to other people. To him, it felt normal in a strange way. He even had a name that rolled off of his tongue so beautifully

Miguel…

"Tulio," the blonde beauty spoke in a voice softer than silk. His face was screwed in a look of concern. For what he saw, made him uncertain. Tulio stood in front of the man, beads of sweat forming above his brow. His eyebrows knitted and mouth slightly agape. He looked as if he had seen a ghost. Miguel strode closer to his companion, hand reaching out to pat his chest.

"Is everything alri-"he stopped; hand gently placed on Tulio's chest. Miguel's eyes widened.

"Your heart is beating so fast" he whispered.

"Y-yes" was all that Tulio could conjure up. He felt so stupid. Miguel chuckled slightly, looking into the sky blue eyes he found so pleasing.

"Why?" That question was one Tulio wanted to avoid. There were so many lies he could have made to avoid speaking of his feeling. But as he looked into his partners eyes, all lies were thrown away.

"I'm scared" he stated. Miguel couldn't really believe it, he was scared? Since when? This man had looked danger square in the eyes and not once did he flinch. Sure Tulio was a worry-wart but he had never really been scared before…at least not to his knowledge.

"Why are you scared?" Miguel was trying to dig deeper. He wanted to know what was haunting Tulio's mind in that moment. All he wanted was to help. Tulio swallowed thickly as he opened his mouth. After all these years, he was finally going to say it. He was finally going to speak of this feeling that had been hanging over his head like a raincloud recently. Sure it has taken him years to figure out his feeling but somehow, he felt like it had been there forever.

"Because I love you"
