But he thinks he's lied and dodged enough, and there's nothing more comforting right now than how warm he feels to know that he's close to somebody.
He doesn't cry. Not out loud. But he's content to be held in Jaime's arms for now, and he thinks he can save the apology about the wet spots on his shoulder later.]
