Cordy had just picked up her teacup and was taking a slow sip—Patrick's words almost left her spitting it out.
Patrick frowned and asked in confusion, "Aren't you worried?"
Cordy considered it—but John had always been straight…
"You don't really understand how amazing those two men really are," Patrick said solemnly. "You should know how incredible John is even without rose-tinted glasses. Others aside, I very much have no argument even if I lost you to him."
"As for Sean…" Patrick trailed off, embarrassment showing on his face for once. "He's a real keeper only after I really got to know him."
"Really? Is he that amazing?" Cordy was skeptical.
"Are you doubting your cousin's charisma?" Patrick demanded, clearly upset.
Cordy raised a brow—here he was, defending his belief again!
"Anyway, I'm going. I have to check out what those two are up to!" Patrick said and left.
Cordy watched as he left really urgently right then, afraid that Sean would be stolen.
She sighed feebly, though she was soon smiling in relief.
She had felt guilty toward Patrick for the longest time, and that if there was one person whom she had wronged, it was him.
But she could finally let that go—after all, loving and being loved was equally important!
And what Patrick had now was his perfection!

Cordy slowly returned to her room, and John happened to arrive as well, intending to take a bath.
"Where have you been?" Cordy asked.
