Even when heās busy, Shuichi makes an effort so they can go out at least once a month.

You donāt have to try extremely hard to make him jealous.
He frequently worries youāll find someone better and when he sees you being overly friendly with someone his mind fills with terror and heās already internalized that, at some point, youāre going to leave him for someone else.
However, he doesnāt vocalize his feelings and you probably wonāt even realize that heās feeling jealous.

Heās decent. His kisses are soft and unsure, but they transmit so much love and care.

Obvious- How obvious is it when they have a crush?
