182| Hug me back
Neo half expected Bryce to ask for a hug.
As soon as Bryce asked, he began to fiddle with his fingers nervously, awkwardly standing in front of Neo.
Neo naturally glanced at Armin who was beside him. There wasn't any particular expression on his face, and Helios was still seated, not paying attention to them.
Neo never engaged in intimate things with these three people in his right mind. It wouldn't be the first time that he had hugged Bryce.
But it had never been in front of the other two people, so Neo found it a bit weird.
On the other hand, Bryce was looking so pitiful. Even though he would feel slightly uncomfortable hugging him now, he had to commend Bryce for acting normal for some time now.
"… You can." Neo forced the words out of his mouth.
Bryce didn't wait to hear anything else before he threw his arms over Neo. He hugged Neo tightly and buried his head in the crook of Neo's neck.
"Senior, you feel so warm. Please, hug me back."
