"Is something wrong?"
Ciaran knows me too well. He came up behind me, loud enough so I could hear him coming, so I wouldn't be startled, and wrapped his arms tight around me, resting his chin on my shoulder. I'd been so determined to stay quiet about what had been bothering me, but I couldn't resist him, either.
"Nothing much."
He hmmed softly and tightened his arms around me. "Don't lie."
It wasn't exactly a lie. There was nothing wrong with me, yet there'd been a loneliness and longing in Duo's eyes that hurt me too because I'd once felt the same empty aching longing, though unlike him, I didn't understand it. I leaned back against Ciaran and told him that, while he placed soft kisses along my jaw and listened.
"You think he needs someone?"
"Yeah," I sighed.
"I know someone..." Ciaran started, biting his lip slightly, and I pulled out of his arms and turned to face him, raising an eyebrow.
"You agree?"
"Maybe. But more than agreeing, it's obviously bothering you, so I... you don't think it'd work?"
I smiled and kissed him, amused at his obvious worry about it, about Duo and about me and my mood. "Ciaran, it's a great idea."
