Getting validation for his side of things felt good. He didn't expect anything but he got that. It was enough to make him smile again as he was thanked and he listened to the rest. Then he knew exactly what he needed to do. That knowledge felt really good.
Lifting his hands, he cupped the man's face. Gently. Warmly.
"You have had a lot of people in your life demand things of you or not tell you what they want. I'm Fae so that means I'm not capable of ever directly lying to you about anything. Know that so you can know everything I have to say next is completely true," he started.
"Will and I are very special to each other. It's why we're married now. But that doesn't mean you can't be special to us too. We picked you for you to be with us. It's okay if you mess up sometimes because you're new to this. We're never going to ask you to be perfect. Just. You."
He smiled a little more as his thumbs started to stroke those handsome cheeks. "I want to know you and for you to be in my life in what ever way makes you happy too. Just my friend? Or maybe as a lover? A boyfriend? More? As long as you can be happy then I will be too. I want you to be who you are and who you want to be. I want to learn about you and grow with you. I want you to come to find that we'll always pick you too just like we did when we asked you out on that date we had."
And now he was smiling brightly. "I want you. That is what I want. My only expectations of you are that I get to see you and know you want to see me too. Everything else? That's just stuff to make what we have more special and magical. As long as I get to have you in my life in any way then I have everything I well and truly want from you, Wanyin."
