Summary
Ray swallows, flounders for a second. “I don’t wanna overstep,” he says, then cringes at the look on Pete’s face.
“Overstep?” Pete’s reeling and Ray's hands splay so Pete doesn’t fall backwards. “Ray, you could never—"
“No, no,” Ray tries reversing course, fingers flexing against Pete’s spine. “I just…I didn’t wanna assume—or maybe assume’s not the right word—I didn’t think—you were so sad, Pete, and I—“
Pete’s looking at Ray like he’s grown three heads, like he’s gone honest to God, batshit crazy.
“You were hurtin’, Pete, so bad, and I didn’t wanna act like everything was fine.” Ray pauses for a moment before meekly adding, “And you deserve space from me if you want it.”
or
Ray still feels guilty after their fight. Pete just wants them to be okay.

Summary
Later, he would speak with Makkari, trusting his hands to stay steady as his heart rolled off of his fingertips and into her mind. He would shower her with adoration and praise, and keep his eyes fixed on her all evening only to know how it would end up. Makkari would give him a smile and a gentle kiss on the cheek before speeding off to another continent, leaving nothing but a mess of emotions and an ocean between them.

Summary
'My love,' she signed with shaking hands, 'I’m so sorry.'
