[ Being with Connor has been a lesson in patience. If he feels like this could go somewhere, he wouldn't mind waiting a little longer. But if Connor doesn't seem like he's willing to make an effort, well that's a bridge to cross when they come to it.
Anyway. Stupid and hypocritical sounds just like Connor, actually. Oliver would find it cute and more than a little satisfying if Connor were jealous.
Of course, whatever victory he might've had is undercut when Connor laughs at him. But with that smile and the heavy-lidded look he gives him, Oliver can't find it in him to be annoyed by that, either. His cheeks burn and he becomes suddenly interested with a spot on the floor between his knees, though a smile seems permanently fixed to his face. ]
It slipped, okay? And he wasn't just a rebound. [ Shut up, Oliver. ] He could've been more if I-I...
[ He glances at Connor and the words stick in his throat.
Shrugging, he drops his gaze to their tangled fingers. ] It doesn't matter now.
