"Oooh, very well put!" Thomas grinned.
Thomas adored Kat. She was a great friend to his son and she was witty and kind. He could think of no one better to be his son's best friend. "Kat certainly deserves to be either second or third depending," he nodded. Then Jamie mentioned his lack of romance as well.
"Hah! Yeah well, maybe. I don't think exactly lining up to fill the position." The thing Thomas hid the most from his family was his occasional loneliness. He never regretted it though as he was, for the most part, happy with his life. And he could never regret anything that revolved around his son.
