Caden sits there with his arm around April and stares at the door, willing it to open and for Les to walk in. It's improbable that he'd just show up at Caden's anyway, but still. He hopes.
The comment April made earlier about how should would normally just get out of town gnaws at him. Caden doesn't think that he's enough to make her stay if... if things go bad. He can care about her and want her all he wants, but if she wants to leave, she'll just go. Even as he holds her, he wonders if he's losing two amazing people that he's only just found.
It wouldn't be the end of the world if April left; life would go on. He's just afraid that she would take some small piece of him with her. He doesn't want to lose her.
He doesn't want to lose Les either.
"I guess not," he replies, feeling helpless. He takes her hand and threads their fingers together, squeezing a little. "I'd do anything, if I just had any idea of what there was to do."
