Yeah. I was... staying with Derek. He's got this cabin out in the woods.
[He drags his thumb against the side of Roman's hand, touching, holding onto him. If there's one thing that the time about, what happened taught him, it was that he cares. Cares more than he can hope to put into words, but fuck that whole sappy romantic bullshit anyway. He just likes this. Touching him, being around him.
He's quiet a few moments, and then he's grinning up at Roman, lopsided and teasing with a raised eyebrow.]
So does this mean I can kiss you?
[He uses amusement to mask the honesty of the question. Not that he's going to now or anything. Just... that was good. They'd both said so, right? He's no good with this stuff. He wants it to be easy. And maybe it's in the vein, where touch is easier than words that he tugs Roman's hand up and presses a kiss to his bony knuckles.
Roman used to be such a fucking princess. Here things are different, though. If anything it makes the draw stronger.]
