This whole conversation is making Scorpius feel sick. It had all started out so good, too. The phone sex thing. It was so hot. And hearing James say he loved him...

He didn't quite understand where all that pleasure had run off to.

"So...you're confused." The words sting, but he forces himself to say them anyway. "Or it's a phase. Or you were just curious." He scoffs, shrugging. "Give me whichever excuse you want, and I'll get out of your hair."
