Flynn snapped and it surprised the man, furrowing his brow slightly, "Flynn I didn't mean anything by it. I didn't mean to belittle anything that you went through as a kid. But you should be proud of who you are now. You're an amazing man, an even better detective. But yes, we can agree to disagree, I don't mean to upset you." He spoke softly, trying to be reassuring and hoping that it was working.
"Oh uh, it means that I need to have an emotional connection with someone before I develop feelings for them. I'm not someone who can just have that raw attraction and act on it. I mean, I'm sure I could but I don't wish to. It's not something that interests me." Clark explained, hoping that he did it justice. He barely knew himself, honestly, but that's the term he had settled on to describe himself. "Because we were partners. I felt like I couldn't and then... Well, it just wasn't the right time when I was no longer your partner for a while either."
What does this mean? What did it mean, he had no idea honestly. "Flynn, it can mean whatever you want it to mean or it can mean nothing. I don't wish to push anything on you. We can just get to know one another again. If it goes somewhere, great. If it doesn't, then we've rebuilt a friendship at least and both have someone to lean on."
