Asher pulls back, smiling gently. He hasn't said it to Nathaniel, not in English. It's sad that it's Anita that's driven him to say it now, but the sheer dismay he felt when he saw her, when he realised Nathaniel was no longer solely his in Milliways, drove home exactly how deeply he cared for Nathaniel.
He cups Nathaniel's face in hsi hands, looking deep into Nathaniel's eyes.
"I love you." He gently brushes Nathaniel's hair back over his shoulders, reaching for the silver hair clasp he had given Nathaniel, pressing it gently into Nat's hand.
"It was a token of my love. mon chat. I am a coward, when it comes to matters of the heart."
