. a beautiful night deluded me .

"If it makes you happy Seth, then I would do anything; even if that meant letting you go."

The words are spoken into the quiet of the night, the only sounds filling the silence those of Seth's breathing and the soft and steady beat of his heart. It's a sound that only Marcus can hear, but it feels him with an emotion that is both warming and just a little painful.

He never thought that love could hurt could like this; a sweet and pleasant burn deep within his chest, swelling and filling him with warmth. It's a beautiful feeling, one that he wouldn't trade anything for.

But he would do anything for Seth, even go so far as to let him go. Seth's happiness and well-being are so much more important. That would never change how he felt.

He loved Seth. It was an unchanging and immutable fact.

FIN.
