J/D drabble, rated G

UNSPOKEN

It was there. Unspoken. It shone in Daniel’s eyes. Daniel loved him.

It wasn’t hero worship, admiration, or simple friendship. Jack was familiar with all those things.

It was love; the kind that asked for nothing in return. A beautiful gift.

But how could you not love someone who loved you? How could you not respond to the warmth in someone’s eyes, to the soul that looked out at you and found you somehow worthy?

Jack wasn’t permitted to love him back. He was sure that Daniel understood that.

And yet he did.

It was there. Unspoken. In his touch.
