That's the problem though - if you're gonna act pathetic, you're gonna stay...
[Heated, he huffs out a breath - is he more mad that Harry just rolls over and lets himself stay that way than he is the fact Harry let him down? Probably. He did end up liking the guy, more than he anticipated - more than he should've. They did a strange little dance and everything's just gotten more and more screwed up here. She asks him how they met and Kieran's brows furrow - it's like he can't really remember, but that's. Not true.]
It was just hook up shit. I don't know how I ended up excited about stupid glow worms and tide pools.
[ Mila nods, looking down, unseeing. She thinks about herself and Teddie, how it should've started and probably stayed that way. But then they found out they both had the word love in mind. That they felt like they were always meant to meet. Maybe if Kieran had a story like that - ]
I mean, that's normal. Traveling, seeing new things, doing whatever you feel like... I can see why you'd get swept up in that.
He was just looking for someone to fill in the void his exes left.
[That's the line that he keeps repeating now, because it's too late to go back and patch anything else together. Harry was a self-proclaimed lonely man. Kieran always saw that as someone else's loss but now in his still burning anger, he sees that as Harry's own doing. His inaction, his subservience... ]

[ Run a little interference. ]
Well, maybe he knows that's what he is.
[ ... Even she doesn't really believe that. As much as she'd like to, on the pettiest principle. ]
... How did you meet him?

I don't know. Sad, isn't it.
