[ Reggie wets his lips too, idly, moving over so there's room on the couch for Derek to sit if he wants to. If Reggie knew Derek was a werewolf, this would probably be time he'd ask if he could still smell Nick somewhere -- not just his scent, but him -- but all Reggie does instead is stare at his hands for a couple more quiet seconds.

Um, so-- [ He pauses, but only briefly. ] If Nick doesn't come back, can I contract with you?
[ Given their relationship it feels slightly awkward to ask, a somewhat loaded question with vaguely embarrassing implications, but for the moment, Reggie intends it entirely pragmatically. ]
Not that I think he won't come back, I just... you know, like, just in case, right?
