Summary
He thinks back to the past few weeks— David grabbing his waist while they were cooking last Friday and how he couldn’t look Jack in the eye after that, David being in a sour mood whenever Jack would come home from a date and-slash-or walk of shame, David staring at Jack constantly and denying it all— and it makes sense.
It makes sense.
***
Jack and David clear the air.

Drop out.
Drop out.
David pulls at his hair and curls in on himself and prays that it's going to pass easily.

Summary
Jack didn’t understand the “what ifs” when it came to trivial matters. As far as Davey knew, he was probably the only one in the world who did. He hated that he focused on it so much, when he knew he should just be thankful to be going back to school in the first place. He didn’t want Jack to think that he was ungrateful or selfish, but he also didn’t want for his brain to constantly sow seeds of doubt in him either.
It seemed as if his brain always won the battle. -
