I just...I mean, I was excited enough," he blushed, with a little laugh. "You know what I mean. Maybe at the time I think I wanted to, but now that I look back I know I didn't. It's okay, Timmy. Sometimes we just do things we regret, and it's hard to know that in the moment." He folded his fingers down, twining them with Timmy's. "I don't regret being here with you right now, I know that. I know that for sure." He smiled reassuringly.
