( it's enough to bring his attention back around, fully, head tilted to the side in that way of his, an act which remains playful and easy, still just as teasing as before but with a hint of something a bit deeper, more sincere. genuinely interested in the way of keeping secrets where others are concerned, because everyone keeps them differently, he's found. in ways that don't quite fit the mold.
wherever this conversation leads them, at the very least, it's lifting noah's spirits, and that's more than he can say for anything else. he's getting more and more comfortable with him, around him, and that's something that he can't say he gets much of. )
Keeping them, telling them, or somewhere in between?
[Noah is deeply pleased to find friendship with Henry to be such an easy thing. Again, he's reminded of Blue. Like they had always been lifelong friends and it was just a matter of finally getting around to meeting.
Of course, Noah cheats a bit, he can't help it, but Henry at least seems willing to take the leap of faith with him. It's nice. So many people are guarded, and it isn't that Henry isn't, but there's still a sense of trust there.]
Yes.
[Because of course with either/or, Noah answers with a 'yes'.]
It depends on the secret. But if it's no one else's business, I'm good at keeping them.
