[ Was it a bad sign he felt guilty already? Probably. She deserved better than this. Better than him. If he gave her anything of him, it was just going to blow the door open that much wider for him to fuck this up.

But he also hadn’t been lying when he’d told her he had a hard time denying her anything. That was still true. He still wanted this, even if he knew there was no way this could end well. At best, he could find a way to mitigate the damage to her when it did. Maybe by then she and Claude would be talking again, closer. At least his inevitable screw up might do some good. He tries not to think of all the ways it could make it so much worse. ]
