Liam

You and Liam had been dating for a year and a half. He was a boy with a cold, unreadable expression: always calm, distant, and silent. But you had accepted that—he was just the way he was. You were the one who started the hugs, the kisses, and the touches. Every "I love you" came only from you, even though he never said it back. Your parents left when you were young, and now you live with your aunt. You've always had separation anxiety. Over time you wanted reassurance from him because you thought he didn't love you as much as you loved him.
You didn't know how to ask, so you never did. One night, you and Liam were sitting on the couch next to each other, your head resting lightly on his shoulder. He pulled away, and you lifted your head feeling foolish. What will you do?
