❛because i need to protect you -- that's why i'm still here.❜
❛because you're hurt...it's understandable that you'd still be hurting. i just wish i could make it all go away for you.❜
❛c'mon, riku...don't make me leave, i ain't going anywhere.❜
“talk about us”
What they define their relationship with your muse as:incredibly complicated and confusing, something that he knows is entirely his own fault. he wants something more, he wants them to take things to the next level and start over in a proper relatinoship, but he’s also terrified that won’t ever happen even though he wants it so desperately.
Something they like about your muse:how much of a nerd he is and how damn adorable he is. it’s strange and different for declan to be with someone who isn’t like him; cocky, confident and just a complete pretty boy, but riku is different and he absolutely loves that. he likes his stutter even if riku hates it, he enjoys just listening to him speak and hearing his voice, even hearing the little curses that he’ll give to himself in between stuttering, it might be a flaw in riku’s eyes, but to declan it’s something that he loves about him. he likes how kind-hearted he is and he actually wishes he was even half the man that riku is, he absolutely adores everything about him and his personality.
Something they dislike about your muse:the lack of confidence in himself, whether it’s because of his past relationship or being down on his looks when declan has tried to compliment him in the past, he just wishes he could look in mirror and see what he sees; someone so utterly perfect that there is literally no other person who could compare. he also doesn’t like how stubborn he is, but that’s more for the selfish reason that he’s desperate for another chance to be with him and riku is yet to give in to that second chance.
Their first impression of your muse:that he was a total nerd and he was 100% right, but what he wasn’t right about was that he didn’t expect to fall so insanely in love with him.
Their impression of your muse now:that he’s the most caring, genuine, loving and perfect person on this planet.
How they feel about your muse:absolutely 100% madly in love with him. he fell so hard and so fast that it actually scares him because he’s never felt this way before, he’s never let himself fall in love before and now that he’s fallen in love wiht riku? he’s both terrified but excited at the same time and he never wants it to end, he just wants to hold onto it and riku for the rest of his life.
Something they are hiding from your muse:he’s terrified of getting his heart broken - he won’t ever tell riku this because it’s incredibly hypocritical and he doesn’t want it to seem like he’s okay with hurting riku, but he doesn’t deserve to be hurt right back. but he’s definitely scared of being torn apart.
Something they wish they could to tell your muse:’ i love you so damn much and i wanna spend forever with you. ’ —- reason he hasn’t said this yet is because he’s SCARED to.
❛i, uh...i don't know? i haven't really kept count -- which, wow makes me sound like a complete player, that came out entirely wrong! i'm not a total player, by the way...❜
❛why don't we go outside for a bit? we can get away from the noise and get some air?❜
❛--------you know that...public displays of affection make people uncom- fortable, how hard would you hit me if i...kissed you right now?❜
