    Summary

    “Ready?” Ryan asks, and — there are shades to it. Levels. Not just for the scene; James hears concern in it, as if Ryan’s asking about more.

    “Never been better, sweetheart,” says James. It isn’t the first time he’s used that nickname to get Ryan all flustered and sputtering. It’s… maybe the first time he’s used it with this kind of feeling behind it, though.

    Ryan splutters anyway, so it’s a win-win in James’s book.

    (It isn’t just the want. James has wanted before. It’s knowing that he can have that is slowly wearing away at James’s composure.)
