how do you write ' i love you '? || logicality

now and forever

"i love you...."

patton perked up and looked at the direction of the source of the voice, recognizing the voice right away. with tears of joy he ran to that direction, which was an area of bright light.

there, he could see a figure not too far from him, his arms open for a hug. he knew immediately who it was, even if everything was a big blur. without thinking twice, the mute let himself collapse into the figure's embrace, feeling the want to never let go.

without a sound or word escaping his lips, he responded.

"i love you too..."

words cannot describe the happiness and relief logan felt as he saw the mute's eyes open. he looked back at patton with tears of joy, lifting the hand he is holding and kissing it softly.

"thank god you're awake.."

patton made a weak smile as he tried to sit up from the bed. logan immediately helped him do so, a look of worry washing over his relieved expression.

"careful, you might reopen your cuts." he told the mute, who nodded with understanding.

with a relieved smile, logan lightly hugged patton, who also then hugged back, his smile falling secretly.

for a moment, the mute found it all strange. strange because logan is there, hugging him with a relieved expression. nevertheless, he tried to not mind it and simply let himself enjoy this peaceful moment. without a sound escaping his lips, he uttered something.

'don't leave me alone...please...'

and he did.
