"You can use your words Suzaku. I know I tend to just . . . do things. And say things. But you can make your opinion known too. I know you have it in you."
He touched the kid lightly, just over his heart, "You have so much inside you Suzaku. I really think it's just a matter of you figuring out how to access it."
"I do not mind." He told him but he would try. To use his words more, to speak to him and let his opinion be known. It was not easy for him but he was beginning to realise that it wasn't something he could avoid here.
"I will try my best." To find it inside of him. He bowed his head politely.
"I know you will Suzaku. You always do your best. And I'm certainly not perfect by any means. If you're willing to try, I am too. All I'd ever ask is that you try."
Would it work? Maybe. Did he still feel at a loss? Very much so, but Steve would keep trying because he couldn't just cut Suzaku free. The kid needed someone who'd always be there, always be willing to push and support. Steve could do that.
He could do that. Try. Try harder. He just nodded again, not moving out of Steve's hold. He would do better, to meet Steve in the middle, to try and make this marriage work no matter how unconventional it was.
begin to wrap?
