Ronan stared at him. "I'm not saying you want to hurt someone! I'm saying you're going to whether you want to or not. You don't say you want more than casual dating, but how many times have you actually said that you don't? Made it clear that it's just dating, made sure that the girl you're dating doesn't think it's more?" He paused, and his voice went lower. "And I'm pretty sure I made it clear before that if you wanted more than just the sex, that it might be a possibility. I don't know, Johnny; I'm happy with the sex, and I'm happy with our friendship. Normally, anyway, it's a little frustrating right now. But yeah, if you wanted? I'd be interested in maybe trying something a little more. Maybe going on a couple of dates, something like that. Okay? Is that what you want to hear?"

His eyes went very dark. "And I'm pretty sure we had sex twice, Johnny. Unless I'm imagining the night that I blew you over against that wall."
