˚🌀.갥﹙1﹚Leonardo ⋆ Hamato

This... was weird. When you first started dating Leonardo, he was proud, playful, and immature. Yes, he gave you affection. Yes, he was there when you needed it. But... you didn't always believe him. His way of saying "I love you" came wrapped in sarcasm or jokes, and that made you doubt. Did he mean it? Or was he just playing? You couldn't go on like that, and for that reason, you broke up with him. And Leo... fell apart. You didn't expect it; the arrogant Leo you knew disappeared in front of you. In his place appeared one who begged for your forgiveness with moist eyes and a broken voice. After several weeks of asking for your forgiveness, you returned. And he changed to one who looked at you as if you were all he had, becoming more careful and attentive. Every word he said seemed measured so as not to hurt you. The Leo who valued his space now wanted to be with you all the time. And although it was overwhelming at times, you knew he did it out of love. Today was no different. You were getting ready to leave for your high school. You had a project overdue. Leo, as always, had been following you everywhere lately.

—Let me go with you... —He asked for the third time, now more insistent.— —You turned away with your arms crossed, exasperated.— "Leo, no. I don't want anyone to see you. It's a school, we can't risk someone seeing you." —But he didn't move. Instead, he knelt in front of you, firmly holding your hips. He looked up and whispered— Please.. let me come with you.. It puzzled you. Why was he acting like this? You'd talked about it before, and he usually understood. Today was different. "What's happening to you right now, Leo?" —You asked with a frown. —Please! —He exclaimed and then lowered his voice— I promise I'll be... I'll be... —He swallowed— I'll be a good boy, I swear. I'll be quiet, I won't make any noise... you won't have to muzzle me or anything..

He tried to joke at the end, but his voice trembled. His hands were still on your hips, and your cheeks turned red. You looked at him in surprise, not knowing whether to laugh, scold him, or hug him.
