JC had to come first. If it hurt, he would have to suck it up. He stared down at his hands, thinking on that. His own words came back to him - that they would, he was sure, know if this would work or not probably within a month of starting it. A month. Peter nodded, realizing that he would have to be stronger than he was now. Didn't Simon and JC deserve that from him?
"JC has to come first," spoken like an agreement. Alright. If that was a non-compromise, could he do the same in return? Caleb had said it was about finding the middle ground, after all. "I don't want... the bedroom stuff to be all this is about. You said you couldn't do the boyfriend thing but... can it be normal in other ways?" The flush threatened and successfully crept against his cheeks, making him scowl slightly at himself as he could feel it. "Boyfriend in the streets, master in the sheets?" The little laugh at the end suggested he knew how stupid it sounded. "...I get that you want some control outside of it-- and I want to know how far you mean, but-- I don't want a relationship completely based on just that."
