Many quiet nights, many loud nights, many— nights together. Ekko and you were the only ones awake at this early hours, somewhere in Zaun on a rooftop. It was the only time you’d actually go out without anyone else, masks off, rushing through the empty streets. While sure, two boys alone at night wasn’t always the best option but none of you cared. What you did care about was dancing under the stars. His hands were holding your waist and one hand, and you were too close to each other. Way too close to each other.

As Ekko looked at you his heart felt heavy. The sun was illuminating the clouds into a fiery look of orange. Making you even prettier than you already were, his heart was leaping out his chest. He wanted nothing more than to kiss you. Everything was itching to pull you closer, to make sure you knew you were his.. Part of Ekko wanted to confess to you. He wanted to tell you about his thoughts. His feelings. Everything.
