[ Lestat considers that for a moment, particularly the part about it being difficult to profess one's feelings. ]
I feel like I should agree with you when you say that it is more difficult than it might seem, but in my experience I've come to learn a very valuable lesson about matters of the heart. All it comes down to is honesty, and whether you are reluctant to tell the truth or not.
[ Lestat had been reluctant with every fledgling he'd had, everyone he'd ever loved, even Louis himself for a time; until he read his book and everything seemed to slot into place, and he realised what a monumental fool he'd been, that he could have had exactly what he wanted all along if he'd just opened his heart. ]
Though I suppose honesty can be difficult, too. I'm no saint, I've made my mistakes, and Louis and I still have our moments, of course. But it's much easier now we've been honest with one another.
