Taiki just continued holding him. There was indeed a sad look in his eyes, how could there not be when Inigo was in such pain. Anyone in such pain would bring him sorrow but Inigo was so kind and gentle.

Which was why the next words were a shock. He had thought he knew why Inigo was upset, his boyfriend vanishing must have been a shock and there was always the fear, would he wake up one day in a suitcase or would he walk away from the platform next time they stopped?

But this... He had turned Inigo down? Why? How could he do such a thing?

"Inigo..." He hugged him tighter, "I'm sure that's not true. Who wouldn't want to be near you?"
