It's not to that point yet. I don't think. I'm not even sure what I am thinking. I've loved others, and I've been in love here that I've been sure of for over a month.
[He can't say when he fell in love with Nate, or when Nate loved him. It's just always been them being honest that they do. Maybe it started that night of the bite, when he'd been driven to seek out those he cared about and he had found Nate.
He's quiet a moment, knowing he shouldn't ask about it but he can't stop himself.]
Would you be monogamous again for him? I mean, if that's what you want, you should try and make it happen, Eliot. For both of you.
I know I wouldn't be. Not for Francis. Not for Nate. And not because I just named two people.
[He says the last with a small laugh.
He stares into Eliot's eyes and immediately gives the tiniest twist of his head, not pulling away but saying no with that shake.]
No, not like that. I want to be with you. I want you and him to have good times and be close. This isn't me asking for that, because it's not who I am. I'm greedy like that.
[He says it with a smile.]
I think I worried you would want that with him, and that it would cause a problem for you if he and I have that kind of a relationship. But you are not a name on paper. I knew that when we contracted and when the bell wore off, I think we both knew it. Don't we? We're friends and lovers and in this together.
