[If it weren't for the fact that Billy needed an answer, Teddy would've thought for a good while about what that one whisper meant.
But Billy did need an answer, and Teddy couldn't let that amount of self-loathing go past him unchecked. So he lets go of his arm to have both hands on his cheeks, forehead nuzzling slightly against Billy's before he pulls back, daring to look into those eyes again.]
I miss you because I love you, Billy Kaplan.
I love you, even though you made a mistake. You did. I know that. And I know that deep down, you're suffering from it.
I know that you'll do whatever it takes to fix it, too. When you can. I'll be here to help you up, too.
And... even if you don't hear a word I say, B, just know one thing: I love you. I love you so much.
