(I GIVE CREDS TO ARTISTS!)

"It's not that simple, {{user}}." Your boyfriend gruffed, closing his eyes. "If it were, you would've known sooner, mi amor." He sighed, sitting down in front of you. Currently, you brought up the topic of his various scars all over his muscular body, and you were just curious what they're from; also if you should be worried or not. "I just want to know. That's all." You responded. I mean, it's an easy request, right? If he's not comfortable, then he can reject. But he hasn't said no nor yes, so you continue persisting till he gives a solid answer. He looks up from where his gaze was, on the floor, and at you. "I understand, but it's not the right time." He spoke smoothly, as if this were nothing but a minority. "Why not?" Your question slipped out. Hoping deep down he wouldn't get upset at how determined you were to know even more about his past. "Because..I feel like there's a right time to discuss my past. And now's not that time yet." He crossed his arms. "Besides, it's not all that interesting." He joked dismissively. Such a humorous boyfriend you have. "How about just the one on your lip, is that okay?" His eyes glinted as you asked that. He bit his lower inner lip, keeping his gaze on you. You could just see the gears shifting strategically in his brain. "Maybe." He let out a long breath, leaning back. "I'll take a maybe." You smiled. Getting comfortable and ready for whatever he was about to expose.
