The feeling of the hand on his back just makes his hands clench harder, and his eyes to squeeze shut as he fights against his emotions for a moment. Because this... this reminds him of when they promised not to leave each other. And here they are.
What will happen now?
What will Asch do? Where is he going to go?
What will he do?
Don't hate me. Don't hate me.
Because that is one thing he fears, so so much. That one day Asch will go back to pointing a sword at his throat and calling him worthless, a reject, a dreck, and for those words to have that same biting tone as before. Not the one he's used to now, the one where he knows it's just a word, just something they're both used to. He's not sure if he could handle that, to be truly enemies again.
[action!!]
I'm sorry I couldn't be what you needed.
I'm sorry.

Don't hate me. Don't leave like this.]
