”No, I’m sorry too.” Exhaling hard, Ronin rubs at his eyes and offers a tired smile to his husband. ”It just suddenly seemed like it would be all on me, if there was a reason we couldn’t go. And... it’s been all on me all season. It’s been a long season,” he confesses, his fingers sliding through his hair to rub at the back of his neck now instead. ”I don’t think Ama would tell us to stay on her account. Besides, sometimes you just need to work it out alone, you know?”
Sunjata had been a joke, and he can see that now, rolling his shoulder in a shrug and letting his smile soften to something a little more boyish. ”Well, he and Nate will be having a party to celebrate accidentally getting hitched while they were both sick. I’d like to be here for it, but I don’t know when it’s going to be, so it shouldn’t stop us heading off. You don’t mind coming back to the beach for a night for a celebration, right?”
