Summary
It had been a week since Jon and Martin had spent that long evening together, it had been a week since Martin had told Jon that he cared about him. Everytime he remembered this, he felt a smile come to his face. And just as soon as it arrived, he felt a gripping motion in his stomach. It had been a week since Martin and Jon had spoken.
Jon and Martin both struggle with the idea that they could ever be happy together, but all it takes is a little communication to see that things work themselves out.

Summary
“Jon…” Martin said, a clear uneasiness in his voice. He walked over to him, putting the cup of tea down on the desk. He moved quickly, Jon feeling nervous as Martin approached closer. Please, Jon thought, just leave me. I don’t want to hurt you.
“Jon, you look so…” as Martin trailed off, Jon could think of a thousand words to fill the blank. Old, tired, ugly, skinny…
“Weak,” Martin said, his voice soft. Jon felt his heart start to beat faster, two sides of a coin flipping quickly back and forth. On one side, Jon wanted so desperately for Martin to care, to notice his weakness— it was human nature to want to be noticed, a remainder from who Jon used to be. On the other side, the sooner he noticed, the sooner he’d try to stop what Jon knew he must do.

Jon struggles with his new-found abilities, and the fact that he doesn't feel human anymore. Martin reminds him that he's human enough.
