Otter Creek I'll [m]ake your timber shiver

The returning tone of the other was not the affect he had wished, yet another thing about the boy he did not understand. Yet, all the same, he replied with an unwavering ease. "don't be mad, i enjoyed our time together," the very thought of their bonding put a light smile in his features, the polar opposite of the other's expression. While the other still hovered over him, it was not in the way Adonis wished. What he wanted was for Alexander to accept it, to return the affections Adonis had so freely given him. Yet, it seemed so unlikely that, by any miracle, that would occur any time soon. It was something he could not truly bring himself to accept, but he knew all the same, he would need to for it was clear he was unwanted; a feeling he had not felt since his initial departure from the place that had turned their backs on him.

"yet i assume you no longer wish for me to follow you," his sentence trailed off, the bitter reality of his forth comings finally bringing it's toll. But he did not regret it, not for a second. Even if it meant never laying eyes on the boy again, at least he could remember the lust filled moments they shared, rather than a journey that only resulted in a bittersweet departure. Though, while had acknowledged Xan's attitude was simply his way of communicating, he knew there was a line, one Adonis had crossed in the heat of the moment, one Xan seemed to regret. He would understand,however, for it was time for him to move on as well, if that was what the other truly wished. Yet, he could not deny, it stung in his heart the tiniest fraction, knowing his presence was no longer desired; more than he had with any other hookup. It was odd, far from heart break yet just enough to render him affected.
