...is there? Pain in attachment? The only interpretation he's got for that is that you open yourself up to being hurt, but Jesus doesn't seem to have that rule with his friends. Sometimes Drake wonders if the other man believes platonic and romantic love should feel completely different from one another, like fire and ice, and so he just thinks he's never felt the latter. Hmm.

"I don't know exactly what you mean by that," Drake says carefully, "and by that I don't just mean how you've had attachment hurt, I could use a definition of boyfriend, too. Need to know what you're asking about before I can think about answering."
