Balthazar placed down his drink and walked back to where his lover was currently standing, wrapping both arms around his waist. Blue eyes twinkling with emotion and forthcoming, he exhaled slowly through his nose before even wondering how to say this. The talk had to come now since Jack had asked him. It was only fair that he tell his lover the truth.
"The problem is I love you, Jack. Deeply. Emotionally and spiritually. Enough that my heart gets twisted every time you leave for your "work." I know I don't have much power to stop you from earning your living but now that we're together....I just want you to be safe from the abuse. From people who buy just for a goodtime and a one night stand and then toss you aside.."
He stuttered slightly with his last few words but maintained his head. Even though his heart was pounding so fast he could hear his own pulse in his ears.
"...I just thought now we're together you'd choose to find another line of work here in the Nexus. One that doesn't involve you selling yourself. Just the thought of another person's hands on your body--it pains me."
Was he being selfish? Jealous? Over-protective? Probably. Yet....shit. He couldn't help it.
