Love 2

Not true.
100 words. (Wow, an actually drabble! This might be my first.) So I've apparently written like four actual drabbles before, lol. So just ignore that. Plus, the grammar is just.. awful. I dunno what I was thinking as I was writing. -_-
As the title implies, this follows
Love.
Now that he's said it once, Elijah tells Orlando, every day, that he loves him.
Even though Orlando is used to hearing this from practically everyone he's ever met, for the first time he's scared. Lij is different when he says those words: He doesn't follow it with an expectant look, or a wistful smile when Orlando doesn't say it back. He simply says it, like it’s a matter of fact--but more importantly, he says it like it’s okay for Orlando to not echo his feelings.
And this is what makes it okay for Orlando to say it back.
