It has nothing to do with Ronan or even this conversation, but Adam Parrish has never been Enough to anyone and now here he is with Ronan and he feels so loved he could bury himself under it. Sometimes, like now, the magnitude of that rocks him a little bit.
"The rest of our lives?" It's plaintive, curious. Adam's always avoided talking about that kind of forever but, as in all things, their Raven Boys are an exception. He's tried to avoid believing in forever but when it comes to them, he believes it.
Adam pulls Ronan closer into his arms and tries not to think of it as absurd. Why shouldn't he be the protective one right now, when Ronan looks so fragile?
