It wasn't beyond Jeremy how awkward this was for both of them, but he just wasn't the sort to drop it and walk away. He cared too much about other people's feelings and didn't want her to think he was just built like his brother who just fucked and walked. He might have been quite drunk that night, but that didn't mean it hadn't meant something to him. He had written it off as a one night stand and a bit of fun, but only because he hadn't expected to ever see her again. That was generally now those things worked. But at the time, he had no clue that they had any connections, especially none as significant as this. He certainly had no clue she had mistaken him for Sebastian, which was funny now they realised what had happened, but he felt like it was his job to make her feel better about the mistake. Whether either of them liked it or not, it was now not 'just a one night stand' because they had important people in their lives that connected them. That could either continue to be awkward, or he could try to make it less so. "It's awkward, I understand that. But we're used to being mistaken, it's no big deal. Don't sweat it. But like I said, you kind of lucked with the boring half of the deal. I hope you don't mind too much," he joked with a laugh.
He just shrugged bashfully at this. "I'm not exactly used to casual sex. I mean, I've done it occasionally, but I'm more a fan of enjoying it with someone I'm committed to, you know? Not that I didn't enjoy it with you, because I really did! I just enjoy all the added extras of a relationship to, and I suppose post-coital cuddling falls into that basket. It was just reflexive and I apologise if that made it uncomfortable for you. And yes, I do very much understand that rough patch was an understatement. I'm a child psychologist, but I didn't really want to make any assumptions as to knowing Kurt's case personally. I only know what we've heard through Blaine and he's been pretty cut up about it with worry. I do know about eating disorders though, and how horrific they can be. Especially one as long-term as Kurt's suffered. We're staying here permanently now. I've just been looking around at the job market, and maybe have secured a contract through the local schools here, thanks to Sebastian who is an Attorney. It's just waiting to see how it pans out, but definitely here for the long haul. We missed Blaine and Miami seems to be the place to be."
