Uke Who Keeps Up A Pokerface

I'm looking for Shounen-ai or Yaoi where the uke keeps up a pokerface and or indifferent attitude, despite having problems. Problems can be having a debt, having to raise siblings on his own, having a dark/sad past (like past abuse, rape, bullying, etc), being threatened, and other things like that. It doesn't matter if the uke is more of a quiet pokerface loner, or has the "I-pretend-to-be-perfect-while-I'm-not" vibe. I'm not exactly looking for a Tsundere uke, because that's a little different. And, well, even though it's cliche, I'd like the seme to be the one to save the uke from himself <3
So, anything like that is fine. Thanks in advance!
Obsessed Yaoi Fan for 7 years ;D Way to go, me!

Like the one from Sorenari ni Shinken nandesu., right? Unfortunately I can't think of any right now... 🙁
Maybe the one from Ikumen After?? But it is not super poker face... or Terpenoid...
Why are they all single fathers? haha
What about the uke from Hanaya no Nikai de? He is kinda lonely, but keeps it cool...

Not sure if this is what you're looking for, but check out Acid Town. It's a good read if you want something that is not all fluff.
I give up. I see not point in living if I can't be beautiful.

I would recommend:
Hana wa Saku ka
Remembrance, a forsaken thing that revokes ignorance and leaves people in doubt, is my only redemption and solace deep within the cascade of white.
The evergreen trees speak of days long past when music mingled with the wind and sweet murmurs brushed our cheeks.

In volume three of Katekyo! ch. 2 which I guess is a prequel to Koitomo!? .
Still in the middle of Katekyo so haven't gotten around to Koitomo yet.
Yes yes, I know I make longwinded comments, but that's just me >.<
I should proof read my comments more, but I won't...
So keep in mind I'm filled with typos

Anyone know the title of a yaoi manga with an uke like this but who secretly worries that his feelings are too clingy/heavy so he pretends to not care about his lover too much? There was some thing about the seme getting a text/going out and the uke worrying a lot since he wasn't told where the seme was going or what he was doing?
