Summary
“Sorry.”Billy’s voice startles him out of his racing thoughts, and he keeps his eyes trained on the mac ‘n cheese as he asks, “For what?”Billy’s hands appear out the ends of the sleeves, his skin pale against the green-ish grey fabric as he makes a loose gesture to everything around them, then a second to himself. “Y’know.”“I don’t, really,” he says evenly, or as evenly as he can manage. It’s not very even, or very convincing. But he’ll take what he can get. “Enlighten me?” (Or,Billy’s struggling. Tommy helps bring him back.)
Note
