Ronan seems happy too, happy for Ronan in any case, and that pleases Adam. They're both happy at the same time. Everything is fine. Everything is good. All is well with them. They're so lucky to be here in a place like this, aren't they? Adam thinks so. He especially think he's lucky to be here with Ronan. Ronan Lynch, who Adam admires so much. Ronan Lynch, someone who likes Adam just as he is.

With that train of thought, the minute Ronan sits down on the bed with him, Adam gravitates toward him. He doesn't even think to try to keep his distance. He doesn't think it strange to want to be touching Ronan, to want to be near him. He links one of his arms with Ronan's and presses into his side.

"Was it dangerous? I'm glad you're back." Adam tells him. Words he would never say usually no matter how true they are. But right now he feels compelled to speak them. Ronan needs to hear them. "I'm glad you like me."
