Fine. I've loved Merrick since I was aware that loved men. At first, I thought it was just because he was so... [A pause, as he considers the word.] Because he needed me more than anyone else ever would.
I'm four years older than him, Zevran. That means that when I was 15 and figuring this out, he was 11, and even if it didn't become... this [This meaning sexual, it hadn't taken that slant until much later.] Until much later, that still says something, doesn't it? He was too young to fully understand what I was experiencing.
