Theo watched the happiness drain out of Ernie's expression and felt bad about it but he couldn't make himself move to fix it. He still held hold of Ernie's hand though, the other crossed awkwardly over his chest to the cheek that Ernie had kissed bringing even more attention to the movement. He brought the hand down to his side but although he was still tethered to Ernie by their interlinked hands there was now a space between them that hadn't been there before.
"I, no, it's okay." he said first, even though he wasn't sure that it was. He wanted it to be though and that would have to do. "I'm sorry, I just wasn't expecting you to... I wasn't expecting it." he apologised back, because he was sure that if Ernie had been dating someone normal that would have been an actual kiss by now, and even if it wasn't it wouldn't have been such a shock to them. Theo felt useless and wrong and then angry for a second that he felt that way before the usual malaise settled in again. "It's okay." he tried to reassure again, even gave Ernie a slight smile that was small, but trying it's best.
