Heiji nodded against Snake's shoulder. The arm around his waist surprised him a little, but not in a bad way. It felt... nice. Heiji liked how it encircled him and drew him in a little closer. And clearly Snake was comfortable touching him with it.

He traced the shape of a heart over the left side of Snake's chest. The message was hopefully quite clear, but even if it wasn't, the kiss he gave Snake certainly would be.

I love you.
