“It matters to me,” Adam said, soft and stubborn. He watched Alec for a second longer, then re-opened his book. “If you’re not hungry, then I’m not either. If you want to get something for yourself, I’ll go with you. I’m not taking your money.”
If Alec got himself food and not-so-accidentally ordered twice as much as he needed, Adam could accept that. But taking money from Alec and calculating for only his own hunger wasn’t something Adam was willing to do. He didn’t have the money for lunch, so he wouldn’t eat.
