A sigh, and Jake shifted a little, sitting up and looking rather alarmingly worn and tired. It was a strange expression for him.
"I've never felt the way I do about you for another human being. Ever. You infuriate me, you drive me up the bloody wall and right back down, you're controlling and you're manipulative and I don't know the first thing about what you're ever thinking." He looked up from where he'd been spitting the scalding words into his lap, and fixed Dirk with a wholly confused expression, a little lost, and maybe marginally hurt in a strange, backwards kind of way. "But I've never loved someone the way I love you, Dirk. I've never been so happy to be around someone, to share space and breath and contact. You're overbearing and I didn't know how to tell you to let me be from time to time, but-- bloody fuck, mate, I'm straight-up arse over tea kettle for you for a reason I can't place quote or verbalize. I just wish I could figure out the proper balance to make this not a terrible train wreck of gangly teenager limbs and my horrid orthodontics."
