[ Finally, Ashe has the courage to lower his hands and meet Dimitri's gaze, though a bit timidly. ]
It would, yes. [ He wrings his hands together on the table. ] I believe what you're telling me, and I... feel the same toward you. If I'm being honest, I've liked you for quite some time now. [ hgoh, he never thought he'd be saying that to his face. ] But I want to be sure Dedue and Felix are truly okay with me being there. I want to hear it for myself.
[ He almost breaks eye contact, but he doesn't. ] I'm sorry, Dimitri.
[Ashe is such a kind soul.. Dimitri softens, his expression, his posture, and he reaches to place his hand over Ashe’s.] Please don’t apologize.
I understand where you’re coming from, and Felix and Dedue will too. I think they will actually be happy to talk to you one on one. They’ve had to deal with only my ramblings thus far. [He laughs, and finally gives Ashe’s hand a little squeeze.] Let me know when you’re free and I’ll set something up. Thank you, Ashe.
