A love confession is often an integral part of moving a story from Pre-Slash into Romance and eventually into an Established Relationship.
If the confession is met negatively, however, this will resort in a confirmed case of Unrequited Love and usually carries a tone of Angst. Sometimes this is a fake-out by the artist, and the other character slowly comes to realize they actually do feel the same way. Which ends up leading to a second love confession, and hopefully a Happy Ending.

Accidental
Sometimes there's an accidental love confession in which the character's crush overhears them, or finds drawings/letters that suggest the other character's feelings for them.
