His breath catches when Demon starts to respond, and he finds himself suddenly nervous, resisting the urge to shift restlessly. Thankfully, the feeling only lasts a moment. He exhales softly when the other echoes his own admission, lips curving slightly as he realizes how much he enjoys hearing those words. It's simple and nice, and he likes that. For a few seconds, he says nothing, silently enjoying the closeness of the moment.

He's already starting to regret saying anything, but he still can't help adding: I'd like it if you did.
