You wouldn't be mine if you'd listened to the church.
[Adam nestles close, curling a hand around the side of Ronan's neck, resting his other palm over Ronan's heart, body relaxing as Ronan takes hold of him.]
I've shown you how much I love you. How grateful I am to have you.
Most of my favorite parts of you are the ones that show when you stop worrying so much about the church. The things you do that make me happy tend to be in opposition to Catholic principles.
[Adam nuzzles at his boyfriend's throat, still sending his usual affectionate waves through Ronan's energy, pulling that connection tight between them and around them, their own private communication.]
I respect that your faith is important to you, Ronan, but you already know that I exist in defiance of that, both with you and separate from you.
There is no shame in sex. No sin in desire.
[He says it soft and steady, like he's reciting a mantra.]
As long as everything is between consenting adults, then the purpose of sex is joy. Pleasure. Love.
[Adam's thumb drifts over Ronan's jawline, slow and soothing.]
I loved the way you grinned at me when you invited me in. I balked from a lack of understanding, that's all. And now I know the whole story, I have no objections. Ronan, I'm thrilled that you're starting to feel more comfortable with your own sexuality. I love that.
[He does and he doesn't. Now he's the only one left who's exclusively dating Raven Boys. They were a foursome. Now they can never be just a foursome ever again. Someone will always be with Blue, so as not to leave her out, and now Ronan has Kyle. Adam feels like he's being left behind.]
