Arjen drew in a quick breath, his chin lifting so he could meet his eyes. Max had always revelled in their height difference—he liked looming over him.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e“We should spend more time together.” Max could not afford to sound tentative. It had to be an order with Arjen.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e“I don’t think so.” Arjen pushed at his chest, trying to get him to move.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMax held firm. “It doesn’t have to be a big deal.
