Re: Studio: Ben S/Ronan X
[Ben still doesn't know what happened between Ronan and the mystery man, hasn't asked and doesn't want to because knowing isn't going to help. It won't change what happened and he suspects that if it had just been something like a handjob that Ronan would have piped up by now to let him know that there wasn't a possibility of transmission. And that - that's all right.
He takes a deep breath too and tugs, gently, as he steps forward, once more crowding into Ronan's space. Ronan isn't getting better, which means - which means - his hand drops down, fingers lacing tightly together. Any more on this conversations and he's going to feel like he's rubbing it in Ronan's face - so he doesn't. His hand lifts to stroke at the soft, damp place under his boyfriend's eyes.] We're in this together. Together.
