Yes !
People assume the uke has been in love with him since they first met 14 years ago however we don't know that for sure.Even if that was the case since their relation became sexual only a few years ago I agree with you on this.Besides the uke is also at fault, he should have confessed as soon as they kissed for the first time...it's not the seme's fault imo.
I agree. Actually, I dont think the uke was in love or if so, he realized his feelings recently. Im positive he was about to tell the seme about going out when he got interrupted.
Why are some people grumbling about the 14 years thing? At the start of the manga doesn't he says they kissed for the first time on the 8th year of knowing each other and had sex a year after? That means it took him 4-5 years to realize his feelings, which honestly isn't very uncommon.
