Summary
Thomas clears his throat. "We have held hands. Yesterday, after Compline, he kissed me. There has not been anything else.”
“Kissed you?”
Thomas studiously tips his head upward, avoiding all eye contact. “Yes. Not for very long.”
“Was it any good?”
“Aldo!”
“Worth a shot.” Aldo grins. “You could get some real money with his admirers, you know. There’s a lot of young women out there wanting to know how the prettiest Pope to ever grace the See might kiss.”
“Well.” With a certain primness Thomas folds his hands together. “I’m afraid they would have to go through me first.”
Oh, John, Aldo thinks. Beloved, beloved.
(Aldo Bellini can do without the papacy, but he cannot do without Thomas).

Summary
— Если по любви, — говорит Джулио, слыша самого себя как будто бы со стороны, настолько это непривычные для него слова. — Если с человеком, которому ты важен. Тогда и не больно, и не стыдно…
(У Альдо есть пара неловких вопросов про секс. Джулио рад объяснить.)
