[ Wyatt watches her. He tries really hard not to be irritated by what she's saying, but it's even harder not to think about what it was like to be on the wrong side of that hunger she's describing. The more she talks about it, the more he just thinks she sounds selfish. When Hunter talks about loving more than one person, he never talks about what other people give him. He talks about how much he loves them.
He shouldn't compare them. It's not fair, and his opinion is tainted by the fact that he was jealous of her with Jaden. If he were either more selfless himself, or more mature - or both, maybe, since one might influence the other - he'd be able to push past those feelings. But he's still young, and not completely self-aware enough to psychoanalyse his own thoughts.
All of this means that he turns away, looking at the bar or the lights - anything that's not Rosie. ]
Yeah, I get it. Must be nice.
[ Which sounds a little sharp. They're supposed to be making up. He chews on his lip. ]
Maybe we just, we shouldn't talk about it. It's your business, and I'm not...it's not my business. Do you want, like, a drink or something, maybe?
