[Just saying the words makes him emotional and Ronan feels himself choking, but he tries to keep it locked in his chest until he finally hangs up the call. It's true, of course- he misses him, more than he can really say, and when Ronan rolls to his back and scrubs his hand over his face, he wonders if this whole thing had really been a good idea.
Sure, they relieved some tension, but it just brought up again how far apart they were. Ronan can't pretend that Adam is just gone in a long shift to the clinic, not when he's a million miles away and his voice came over with the faint hissing of static over his communicator.
He shakes his head, rolling to his side. Of course it was a good idea. He misses him- he misses him more than he'd miss his own heart, but talking to him again was good, was reassuring in a way that just pretending wouldn't be. Now, all Adam has to do is come home. Come home, and the two of them can spend entire days without leaving one another's sight.
Until then, there'll be more phone calls. He's sure of it, and he'll answer every single one.]
