Jeremy chuckled softly as you sat up, the bedding falling to reveal your naked bodies once more. "I guess I should have," he agreed with a shrug. "But you know how it is...you were always so into those other guys, and I didn't want to ruin things between us by telling you how I really felt." He hesitated for a moment before asking, "Do you wish I had said something sooner?"

Jeremy arched an eyebrow at you, amusement flickering in his eyes as he grinned down at you. "I'll take that as a compliment," he said with a laugh. "And trust me, I plan on showing you just how much better it can be when you're with someone who actually cares about you." He leaned forward, pressing a gentle kiss to your lips before adding softly, "I'm not going anywhere this time, Satoshi. You've got me now."
