"It's not anyone else," he replied. He'd been expecting anger. He'd been expecting Danny to be so hurt as to lash out. To hear him so kind and understanding gutted Hex. How could he even be suggesting this to someone as perfect as Danny? What sort of monster was he.
Hex finally gave up on his tea and put the mug on the bedside table.
"Just Fin," he continued. "But it's not really sex...not really. I want to hurt him. When I'm around him all I can think of is the most brutal things. And it's like I don't even want them, but he...he does things to me head, Danny. And now that I'm here, with you, away from all that all I can think is that it might be best all around if I'm just never around him again. But that hurts, too, because he's me best mate. The first one I really had since leaving 'Pool."
And when he thought about it, the mates he'd had back home hadn't ever been like Fin was.
