Kovu x Balto “Do you recognize me?”

This year i really wanted to make something christmas related, so after hearing this song over and over on the radio i decided use my favorite verses from it to create a video.

There's a small storyline, influenced by the lyrics:
Balto was in an abusive relationship with Steele. After getting out of it, he suffers with ptsd.
He spends a lot of time alone, avoiding others. So he enjoys being in the forest away from the city.
Kovu then, is a past acquaintance. They've seen each other around but never got close enough to actually know much about one another. Although Balto's shy nature has always appealed to Kovu. He's curious about him.
One day he follows Balto, later on approaching him to talk.
Balto says he doesn't recognize Kovu and turns to leave.
He then realizes how lonely he's felt. How much of a burden it is to keep to himself for so long. He turns to face Kovu, looks at him. Then continues to move forward, leaning against him.
Kovu's shocked by Balto's change of heart, but embraces him nonetheless.
Happy to be the one Balto decided to trust.

That's pretty much it.
