[ Oswald might not know love like he's saying. He's never kissed anyone. He's never been in love. Ed keeps doubting he really means it. No one ever really means it. But you're his guy. Right? An obsession. Mistaken selfish desires. Their bond is undeniable and it could be easy to mistake feelings when you're unfamiliar with them. This is going to be bad for him. Oswald's wearing that smile again.

He has make it clear. Oswald leaned closer and Ed's having a harder time looking at him but keeps doing so. Forcing himself not to miss a detail here. A tell. Something validating the doubt. Something to clear this up. It's all a misunderstanding. This isn't real. Ed usually doesn't look this unsure of things. Just crumbling any stability and grasp he had on what was going on.

Then he pulls away, probably far sooner than the only chronologically living recipient of the action would like. A hand hovering closely to his mouth. Breath caught. He isn't looking at him anymore. ]
