I’m sorry.
Janus hadn’t missed how Roman had reacted to the words. How he’d tried to brush them off like it was nothing.
It wasn’t nothing.
It had taken him a long time, with the encouragement of his therapist and Patton’s unwavering love, to grow comfortable admitting when he was at fault. To apologize. To say those two little words and actually mean them without trying to use them for his own gain.
He hadn’t even realized he’d even said ‘I’m sorry’ until he saw his Ex jolt like he’d just gotten electrocuted.
I’m sorry.
Two little words.
Two little words that he’d never said to Roman while they were together, but had made him, his Prince, say constantly back for every little slight or wrong doing Janus had accused him of.
Two little words.
Two little words that he needed to say sooner rather than later to his Ex in a far more meaningful way.
