" Love. He said he loved me. “Love,” Furi whispered to himself. He didn’t know if it had been a slip-up, like someone said they love pie. Or if he really meant love and freaked because he didn’t want it out yet. Kind of like Furi. He felt it was too soon to say the words. But Furi would give Syn some time and then he’d tell the man it was okay, because he loved him right back. He didn’t care about a goddamn timetable. "
