Herbert rolls his eyes a little, not at Alfred, no of course not, but at the mere thought of Sarah. "Well I agree with you there, but that still doesn't matter. You felt how you felt. And there's nothing wrong with that."
And he holds him. Through his crying over his heart aching for someone else. Because he loves Alfred, and they have all of eternity to figure out their own complicated feelings for each other. Whatever time Alfred takes mourning the loss of a potential love is a drop in the bucket, compared to what they could have. What they will have.
