[It was on the tip of Alex's tongue to comment that she could attack him with questions anywhere. Hadn't she proved that over the last three years? But the difference was that he'd asked her not to, and Alex was trying to live up to that request even though it went against everything that she was. It was difficult as hell, and Alex wanted to worry at it like a puppy with a bone, but for now she was letting it lay.
Trying to anyway. Alex let out a huffy, frustrated sigh before she gave his hand a squeeze once more, rolling her thumb along the back of his hand. After all, Alex had answers to things that a month ago she was sure she wouldn't even be able to ask as questions. That needed to mean something, and that did mean something. Honestly, it meant the world to her, but she hated that there were secrets between them again.
It had gone so well when there were last time, and Alex had almost completely blown up their relationship because of it. So, her voice was soft when she just said:]
Okay. I'm leaving it alone. [She didn't need to add 'for now' onto that because Alex was Alex, and he knew her. He probably knew her better than anyone else at this point.]
