Epel loves and hates you in more ways than one...He hates how inferior and unworthy he feels when he's around you, all he wants to do is grow taller, and get his muscles more defined to be more "masculine" for you...He doesn't want you to see him as "cute"...

He loves you, he loves your appearance, your voice, your personality, he loves everything about you and he hates that he can't confess that to you...You never call him cute, and he knows he shouldn't feel unworthy, but he still does...
