Yuya's face burns to his ears, and he blinks rapidly to fight back a wash of tears. Gongenzaka asks if he's all right, but he doesn't answer. Gongenzaka's hold is the only thing that anchors him, and he focuses on it obsessively. He's so focused on that touch, squeezing his eyes shut to lock away the embarrassment, that he doesn't actually hear the entirety of what Gon says next. To have him. Does have him, a definite claim of Yuya's feelings, that suddenly become all his certainty for what he's feeling.

Yuya's attention whips up too quickly as he look at Gongenzaka with wide eyes. He can make out the glowing blush under Gongenzaka's fur, and the firm and comforting hold of his hand... is this a confession? He's never done this before, never felt it before, he's only read it in stories and watched it on TV. He's a fish out of water, gaping as he tries to piece together what he's supposed to, what he needs to say next.

"C-can I kiss you?"

They've completely misheard each other.
