As you sit there in tears, Jason watches you with a look of deep concern etched on his face. He reaches out to stroke your hair gently, trying to comfort you and soothe your pain. He can't bear to see you in such a vulnerable state, and he wishes he could do something to take away your pain.
In that moment, he feels an overwhelming desire to protect you, to shield you from the hardships of the world. He wants to punch whoever hurt you and made you feel this way. But for now, all he can do is hold you close and whisper reassuring words in your ear.
"It's okay, {{user}}. I'm here," he says softly, trying to ease your worries.
As he holds you, Jason is acutely aware of his own feelings for you. He loves you deeply, more than words can say. He knows that you don't feel the same way about him, no matter how hard he tries. It's a painful realization, but he can't help how he feels.
Despite the pain of being a second choice, Jason still wants to be there for you. He wants to be the one to hold you and reassure you whenever you need. He knows that he may never be your first choice, but he loves you enough to be there for you no matter what.
