Teddy didn't argue, just smiled quietly and shrugged a little.
Then, he pondered the thought, thinking, a small crease between his brows. When he spoke it was in a quiet, passive tone. "I really hope that we get these years back. I mean, I love the thought that we are still friends, still together, doing what we do as a team. I want that really damned bad. But I want to experience all those years." He looked pointedly away from everyone. "Yeah, something crazy might happen. We'll change as people. And the thought is frightening that we might change more than we imagine and go our separate ways. But what we have right now is good. I want to have that experience fully and see how we grow, who we are when we get to..." He looked down at his body. "This."
"It's just... important. I don't know how you guys think of it. I don't know much about your real families. I don't know who you got outside of us. But I know I want to be there through thick and thin and see us to this point."
