[He didn't resist the pulling out of surprise, and he was deliberately avoiding Wolfram's decision to clear off the bed. That invited too many extra thoughts and possibilities, none of which they needed to go near anytime soon.]
Wolfram. [There's that serious tone again. He set his hands on Wolfram's hips, maybe to push him away but he hadn't decided on whether to go through with it or not. If everything in life was simple then the last thing he would ever do was push his friend-now-thoroughly-designated-romantic-interest, away from him in any sense.] It's not about a problem, I just want you to be sure about this.
[It only made sense that he wasn't sure right off the bat. Terra couldn't pretend to have always been surrounded by a network of friendships and family but he had been involved in enough relationships to know himself quite well. And the fact, the part that he didn't really want to admit, was that he'd always been attracted to Wolfram for as awkward as that would be if their age difference was taken into account. It wasn't great but it was really just enough to make him feel a little terrible, especially since Wolfram had been sixteen when they met. If it was the same situation with another guy, Terra would immediately punch his fucking lights out and probably assume the worst. Really, he was assuming the worst abut himself even now, so maybe there wasn't such a big difference.
But even on top of that, what would happen if they didn't work out? Best friends didn't always make the best lovers. If they split and couldn't stand each other anymore, then it would be just as bad as Wolfram and his mother going overseas. Changing their relationship wasn't a small decision by any means, so it wasn't a problem but rather a very strong concern.]
no need to be sorry, even with Wolfram's upset dear_mun post :P
