"I'm sure Davy knows you didn't mean to upset him." Jerry tries to smooth things out but knows he might not be able to. "You're a guy. It's natural to want one but..."
Jerry didn't finish that sentence because it would just make the anger worse.
"Then you're in good company." Jerry felt for Sven but the way he was behaving was getting on the American's nerves. "Davy's done that for those other boys for years now. You know, Davy's the one who was there when Sam's boyfriend committed suicide and his parents dumped him on some back road? He's been the one there to keep the predators off Syn and my brother." Jerry stared at the Swede. "Maybe Davy needs to think about himself for once, too."
Jerry stood up and tried to keep from getting annoyed since he knew this is all Sven's anger and whatever other emotions he's wrestling with. Jerry kicked at the dirt and stones by the curb of the car lot. "Davy's had amnesia around the events for a long time. I don't even know how much he remembers to tell you."
That was an honest thing about the situation. Jerry wondered if Davy's reluctance was because he didn't remember, he couldn't answer any questions Sven might ask.
