Julian buried his face into the chest of his lover, too ashamed to face him, yet too incoherent to do anything but sob uncontrollably in his arms. Graeme's words of comfort had minimal affect on Julian, he felt so powerless, so unworthy of the love he'd been receiving lately, how could someone as good as him like someone so weak?
It was stupid, really. He didn't even seen to know what had even put him in such a vulnerable position like this, all he could really think about was how much of a bother he was probably being right now, and why he wasn't being relentlessly shamed for it.
He let out a shaky sob before finally asking him, "Why are you letting me do this?" He lifted his head up to face him, tears streaming ever so slowly down his face.
Graeme pulled him in closer, before giving him a reassuringly sure answer. "Because, Julian. I love you."
