You said you were going to tell me what you expected to happen when you told him.
[And he did that. He did that, and while he's expecting rejection, Alexei knows he's going to have to brace himself for the possibility that that expected rejection won't happen.]
I don't-- I don't need to know about what happened between you and him. Not the details, when it's already gonna be hard enough for me to look him in the face when I see him next.
[Which is... a pity, really, because he likes Norton.]
It changes things when you tell me that you want more from him. Don't you get that?
