"I know" Steve sighed "I want, whatever you want- I, want you, no matter-" he stopped again "no matter what you look like, no matter what you decide. I'm... I should have told you sooner."

Adrien nearly dropped Jess' phone, glancing back at her as though she'd heard, and then quickly found a new place to sit.
"You do?"

"I've been a fool Adrien" Steve stood up and went to the window, the skyline seemed to calm his nerves.
"I wanted to tell you in person, but, I couldn't wait. I want you to be happy Adrien, no matter the skin you dwell in and I want to be part of that happiness."

Adrien was tearing up, though not to the point of sniffling. She rubbed her eyes.
"Should I change back-"

Adrien stopped, conflicted, breathing hard.
"...then I don't know what to do," she said slowly.

"Take your time" Steve replied softly "I liked you before, and Ill continue liking you weather you stay this way or not."

Adrien couldn't believe her ears. She was stunned into silence.
"Steve... are you saying zis to be nice to me?"

"No, god no" he replied "I like you and it's been my own selfishness that's kept me from telling you that. Saying that we should be friends, telling you to give me time. It was selfishness and I'm sorry."
He was quiet.
"If in the end, all we are is friends, than that'll be okay, because at least you'll be around."

"Ha," said Adrien with a sour voice. "I cannot be only friends with someone; you can ask Dan Dreiberg that. I ruin everything."

Steve smiled, a small smile, but one none the less.
"Then we've got a chance."

"If we can't be friends, than we have no other choice than to be more than friends."

Adrien shyly smiled. It would have been visible to Jess, though not to Steve.

Jess smiled widely and headed toward the kitchen that was on the floor.
She liked being right.
