[Adam still felt guilty but it was a relief to know that Ronan wasn't upset with him over what had happened. He knew things had been rough and he hadn't felt like he'd helped.
He smiled softly when Ronan stepped closer and touched him. It was sweet, that Ronan hadn't wanted to mess things up. It made Adam feel...special. And like things could still work out. He meant what he said about being patient. He would give Ronan all the time and space he needed, without any pressure.]

Sure, he wanted things to be like they'd been before, but he wasn't chomping at the bit. He wasn't impatient.]
