"Je vois en quoi ça serait utile," Nate quipped in reply, his free hand slipping from the back of the couch, his long fingers stroking lightly up and down the arm of the hand resting on his knee. He enjoyed the casual physical contact more than he could say. More so now knowing that he would be able to have casual displays of affection with Beau in public now. "I'm glad my bilingual upbringing could come in handy," he added a beat later.
"Oh, certainly. We must ensure it's not a fluke." As if Nate could think for a minute that it were. He would attempt to keep an open mind and not read more into things than were there, as there were a lot of years of wondering between them, but he also rather thought there was a significant connection there, as well. "And lucky for you, it doesn't have to end." What, exactly, that meant, he wouldn't say, enjoying the open-ended feel of it.
