[ He puts his finger over Basch's lips to still that argument before he gets too worked up. ]
Basch. You don't ask me to choose. I know that. But I wanted you to say it. Just the same as I'm not going to make you choose. I know there are others in your bed, too. That's the nature of this place.
But the difference with this? Trust me when I say, if I'm here in your bed, it's because it's the only place I want to be. I choose to be here. What you give me is what I want from you. It's everything I need from you. It is more than enough.
Yes, I could have gone to bed with any number of people last night - as could you, I'm sure. And yet, here you and I are. [ A pause, as he arches an eyebrow, fingers moving to trace those lips instead of quiet them. ]
This isn't a competition for affection - mine or yours, Basch. You have it even without asking me to choose.
