[It feels like it should be obvious, but...no, it really isn't, is it? Because when you love someone, you aren't supposed to leave them behind; after Mari died, everyone separated. Sunny understands why he had to be apart, why Basil did; hell, he almost didn't answer that first day Kel knocked. But Hero went to school, and Kel and Aubrey couldn't get along without him, maybe. Sunny doesn't know.
[It doesn't matter. They're here while they're here, and then they'll be home, and Sunny will be leaving the next morning, and maybe he'll never have said it all. Who knows how long he has left with Aubrey, really?
[Her voice is tight. She looks like she might start crying again.
[Sunny laces their fingers. He wish it were enough - that he could say it all without words.]
