Jason nodded slowly. "Not exactly... but even so..." He shifted slightly where he sat. "That doesn't change how we feel, does it?
"I've never had an interest in women... any woman at all. Regardless of the fact that I need to marry one so I can father an heir. If I wasn't the heir, things would be different..." He sighed, looking away and falling silent. He had just been thinking out loud; he wasn't sure if what he'd said had made any sense.

Zephyros looked away again, biting the inside of his lip. "But you are. And you have to put your country first. As do I, despite being the fourth son. And so any relationship between us... well, it's impossible. I wouldn't allow it, and I doubt you would either."

Jason shook his head, not looking at Zephyros, and dimly realizing he was still holding the other prince's hands; he didn't release them. He drew a breath, repeating his question from before, letting the words flow freely from him. If he tried to hinder them they'd stop altogether.
"But it doesn't change how we feel, does it? We can still hold fast to our feelings, even if we can't have a relationship like the ones we both must one day have with our wives. I don't know if I could ever have a fulfilling relationship with a woman. I can appreciate a woman's beauty, her personality, her talents, but I don't find women appealing in... other ways."

"I... I've never felt the same way about a man... before. I'm torn between my heart and my duty... and I know that my duty must win," he looked at Jason again, smiling weakly. "And that means removing all temptation. But... I suppose first I must heal... That is some time at least, right?"

Jason turned to look at Zephyros, a slow, small smile coming to his lips. "It is... some time, at least. It's better than no time at all." He gently massaged Zephyros' hands as he spoke, then slowly released them.

Zephyros caught one of Jason's hands as they were pulled away, holding it with both of his. "It is..." he chuckled weakly, "I guess my slight overindulgence wasn't all bad. It cleared the air between us, right?"
He raised Jason's hand to his lips and kissed it. "Feelings can remain only that. We don't have to act on them. So long as we both know they are reciprocated... I can live with that, even if I can't live with you."

Jason nodded, smiling and feeling a blush heat his cheeks as Zephyros kissed his hand. He took Zephyros' hand and kissed it in return, looking into the other prince's eyes. "As can I."
