okay but simon riley would definitely be the type of guy who falls for you in the quietest way possible. like. he's literally this giant scary dude build like a house and then you're just...a shy girl , kinda chubby, wearing an oversized hoodie and trying not to trip over your own feet
and he's GONE.
but the thing is. he wouldn’t know what to do with it?? He's never felt this way.. never been in love .like he’d literally take a bullet for you without blinking but god forbid you ask him how he feels. this man would freeze like you short circuited something inside him.
he grew up with so much fear and violence and hurt that he's terrified of hurting you.he's terrified of doing something wrong and pushing u away. hes always soft and awkward when he's with you. As if he doesn't know how to actually act around you.
meanwhile you're just sitting there like "i brought you tea" and he’s ready to cry
he’d love every soft part of you without ever saying it. like you'd complain about your stomach or your thighs and he’d just get so quiet and then mutter "don't say that, ya look gorgeous" it's so soft you almost didn't hear it.
he wouldn’t be good at romance. but he'd remember your favorite snack. he’d let you sit on his lap even if he pretends not to care. he’d press his forehead against yours in the dark, no words, just breathing. hes always protective like that man ain't playing about you.
idk man he’d love you so much and be so scared of it at the same time.
