"I might --"

Regulus cuts himself off, sighing, and leans against the closed door. Not too far away, Desire sits in a chair, eyeing him almost warily. Regulus wants to go over to him, to hold him and ignore what he just heard, but if what he thinks is about to happen really does then he'd rather not, for no reason he can think of. He takes a deep breath, and starts again.

"All right. Before -- before I say anything, remember something for me?"

"Certainly. Ask."

"Will you ..." Reg half-smiles, sheepishly. "Stay with me till I fall asleep?"

[true_desire]

"Anything you want, Regulus."

And Desire did.
