14. Affection
Len's always had problems voicing his emotions. Getting the words out was a challenge, and he would blush and turn away, too embarrassed to say anything more. Rin found it cute, though. His shy nature was one of the things that drew her to him.
Even though he had trouble saying it aloud, Len would always show her how much he cared in his own little ways. Whether it be brushing a stray lock of hair from her eyes, affectionately kissing her cheek, to holding her hand tightly. He'd buy her favorite fruits when he knew she was upset, and if there was someone bothering her, he wouldn't hesitate to protect her. He often laughs with her, keeps her company in her worst moments.
"What are you thinking about?"
She looks up into the passive eyes of her boyfriend, whose expression is unreadable in the dim lighting of the TV. "You," Rin answers, smiling up at him.
His cheeks color considerably. "What about me?" He looks away from her, lips pursed as he pretends not to be interested.
"I was thinking about how much I love you," Rin says, earning a darker blush from the blonde boy.
She nuzzles into his neck, and his arms tighten around her. The faintest touch of his lips against her hair makes her sigh comfortably. Yes, even if he doesn't always say it aloud, he always shows her that he loves her.
His heartfelt actions of affection speak louder than any words ever could.
