She Stood Him Up Again

Bentley looked at him, "Dereon, when did you develop such feelings for me?"

Dereon paused and raised his eyes again. He was already extremely shocked.

His mind was buzzing and blank.

There was only one thought.

Bentley knew.

"You, how did you know..."

Bentley smiled. His smile was still as gentle and warm as it had been many years ago when he first met Dereon, "I can feel it. Dereon, no one has told you before. The way you look at me is different from the way you look at others."

"..." Dereon's hands slowly tightened. His heart was beating wildly. He pulled the corners of his mouth with difficulty. "So, do you feel disgusted with me?"

Dereon had imagined what would happen after Bentley found out about this matter. Would Bentley mock and dislike it? Would Bentley break off all ties with Dereon and could they not be friends anymore?
