Athelstan hadn't moved since Cassidy left him earlier. He was curled up around a pillow, half in and half out of the dream state. That hazy part of still being awake when nothing really makes sense. Like the knocking on his door. He blinked blearily and didn't move from his spot, barely raising his voice to call whoever it was in.

Rowan hesitated, not hearing much of a response, but entered anyways; if he didn't do it now he may just find some way to talk himself out of it. Arms crossed over his chest, he moved to the end of Athelstan's bed, lips pursed before greeting simply, "Hey." The urge to clamber into his friend's bed was overwhelming, but he resisted.

Athelstan shot up in bed, staring in wild eyed surprise at his friend. "Rowan?" he questioned, reaching towards him before quickly bringing his arm down to his side and looking away.

"I'm sorry," he said, his voice cracking.

Rowan sat down on the edge of the bed, a bit surprised by his friend's reaction to his presence. He studied Ath for a moment, quietly, before reaching out to grab his hand, thumb brushing over his knuckles. "It's okay. I overreacted."

Athelstan twisted his hand in Rowan's so that he could tightly grip it. "No. You didn't. I was-It was my fault."

He shifted to move closer to Athelstan, leaning in to press a firm kiss to his friend's lips. That felt so nice, like such a relief. "I don't like to share either," he murmured a moment after breaking away.

Athelstan felt like a weight had lifted when Rowan pressed their lips together. "You don't have to," he said. "All yours."

It felt so much better to be on good term again. The tension left his shoulders and he relaxed, reaching up to stroke Athelstan's hair (despite its dirtiness). "I didn't think you'd get so upset just because I was upset," he said, an eyebrow quirked as he took in his friend's state. He looked tired and rather unkempt.

Athelstan closed his eyes, feeling more than a little horrified. To be such an emotional wreck. How humiliating. He sighed, leaning into his friend's touch. At least it was Rowan.

"I didn't want you to be upset," he said, voice low.

Rowan looked a bit confused, and said, "Well you can't have thought that I wouldn't be upset. But it doesn't matter, I'm over it. And... I suppose I'll try to get along with Cassidy." Though there was reluctance at that last part, a bit of jealousy and anger still lingering.
