Summary: A lazy night on the couch brings out the confession Edward has been trying to make....
______________<?>________________
The television played some old film that went unnoticed by the two souls so obviously in love, Food eaten as empty containers and plates lay abandoned on the coffee table and the sound of your laugh overpowered the noise of the television.
It's been hours since Edward had came over, Surprisingly fast considering the long walk he always takes to get here, he seems to make the walk shorter than it really is, Though you don't pay no attention to it and find yourself laughter turns to quiet giggles while your legs lay in Edwards lap as you laid sideways on the couch. His own little giggles escaping those pink lips of his as he subconsciously runs one of his hands up and down the expanse of your leg, Starting at the ankle and stopping at the beginning of your knee before going back down again.
What he had said that made you laugh already forgotten on his mind as he simply watches in awe at how you now stare at him adoringly, Your head resting on the couch arm. The look your giving him causing his face to flush, Oh how he wants to tell you in this moment what you mean to him, How he would go to kill just to keep you smiling and staring at him like that. In a life lived only knowing neglect and pain, You seem to bring him peace and happiness. But he can't ignore the aching in his chest when the thought of his confession going not how he plans, What if you laugh at him? What if you reject him? What if—
"What's going on in that pretty head of yours, Eddie?" You dare uttered in the now silence of the home albeit the forgotten film still rolling.
Edward looks at you, Face void of emotion. Or so he had hoped, But you knew him well. Like a favorable book read many times, You could read right through him. You could see the worry swimming in those green eyes of his, But what has him worried?
He smiles a tight lipped smile before shaking his head softly. "Nothing, Nothing at all..." He released a breathy chuckle before focusing on the forgotten film. He couldn't do it, He couldn't ruin what he already surprisingly has with you.
How pathetic would he look then? Being rejected by the one and only friend he has?
You don't let his response fly though, Sitting up after removing your legs from his lap, You now sit beside him. The proximity not allowing any space between you as you hesitatingly cup his round cheek in your hand, Forcing him to look at you. Your touch making his face hot while his eyes go wide, He holds back whimper at your unexpected touch and manages to look you in the eye briefly before focusing on his lap.
"What's wrong? Your unusually even more quiet than you already are" You try and lighten the mood with a small joke in hopes of seeing him crack a smile. But he instead has this wide eyed look making you worry you may have overstepped a boundary. You knew Edward wasn't one for touchy actions, He still hardly hugs you when you bid him farewell after hanging out. Going to remove your hand, It barely leaves his soft fleshy cheek before his own hand shoots up and places yours back.
"No! Do-Don't move-please don't move..." He pleaded while his eyes shut and he leans into your touch. Your heart swells at his actions and you run your thumb across his cheek in soft slow strokes.
Edward knew he must look like a desperate fool in love, But he didn't care as long as he could bask in your touch he's waited too long to feel.
"Are you going to talk to me? You don't have to—"
"I love you" He blurts out, Voice cracking with emotion as his eyes shot open at his own abrupt confession.
You stare at him in shock for a moment, His words hitting you hard. He loves you? You've only been friends for little over four weeks and he loves you? You try and process this knowledge until his rambling tears you from your thoughts.
"Oh no...no, no, no, nooooo" He murmured before a little noise that resembles a whine leaves his lips, Eyes closing as he shakes his head softly in your hands. "I wasn't-it wasn't supposed to come out like this! It was going to be better! I-I had it planned! Something bigger, Something more romantic like you deserve!" His voice cracks as he tries not to cry, Your brows furrowed together in confusion, Before you place your other hand on his other cheek and hold his shaking head still so he's looking you in the eyes.
"Eddie, Honey, Calm down its okay" You say with a little smile before leaning closer to his face to bump your nose with his own. "I love you too, So much" You then place a kiss on the corner of his mouth, a gentle peck that has his heart stopping.
You love him? Is this some sick joke the universe is playing on him?
You see the adorable confused look on his face and can't help but giggle before peppering his face in little kisses while uttering how much you love him with each kiss.
Edward can only sit there and take it, Before he breaks out of his shocker daze and finds himself releasing yet another breathy laugh that soon turn to giggles as your kisses tickle his touch starved skin.
You stop your assault of kisses to take in his grin while he flushes so beautifully.
"I love you, My angel" Edward said, Lifting one of your hands from his face to place a kiss on your palm. And he thought he'd only see your lips on his skin in his daydreams while he watched over you in the shadows.
You let out a content sigh, "I love you too," You lean your head on the back of the couch as he does the same. "No matter what" You add with a truthfulness he is sure of.
No matter what? Even if he has morbid plans to clean up Gotham city?
He sure hopes you will love him no matter what, He can't stand the thought of you ever not loving him.
You cuddle against his side, Edward leaning into your touch as his head falls on your chest. Your heart beat a beautiful melody he could listen to for eternity. Your fingers brushing through his hair.
