It was meant to be a hint. One that Jamie took and proceeded to throw out of the window. Ryan wasn't that picky about Jamie touching his things, moving them around and whatnot - he just didn't really want to talk about what Jamie wanted to talk about.
A couple of days from now and the mess would return anyway. Jamie wouldn't appreciate hearing that but the truth was rarely ever kind.
"I have nothing to tell you," he finally said, skimming right over the topic. If Jamie really wanted to know, there was nothing Ryan could hide that Jamie could not take from him, just like that.
He didn't want it to be an issue - he didn't want who he intrinsically was to be an issue between them - but whether anyone respected that or not was outside of Ryan's control.
