"You'll get over it." Cepheus told him, shaking his head. "You'll date someone else. Someone you don't think of as a simple whore who would get drunk and stoned and let a bunch of men fuck him."
Cepheus tried to hold it back, but he burst into tears again, collapsing on himself. He wanted to die.

Cepheus wasn't something James was going to get over, and he knew that, but he wanted to do as he was told. Do what Cepheus wanted him to do instead of what he wanted. Even if ever instinct in his body wanted to rush to Cepheus and comfort him. "I love you," he whispered. "I'm so sorry, Phe. Please believe me." He touched Cepheus's hair and then left the room, running down to Scorpius. "Go help him before he hurts himself," he pleaded. "I'm sorry, Scorpius."
Scorpius scowled at James, reaching out and shoving him. "Go away, James. Cepheus deserves better." He ran up the stairs to his brother's room.
