To have his name breathed with such fondness drew him to his feet and across that small distance Fell had already begun to close, but no further. He didn't reach out to touch the oddly adorable man as it felt like he stood on the other side of an invisible wall, instead Anthony stood on the side opposite looking in, screaming silently into the bluest soulful eyes he had ever seen just like those he were one of those silly pumpkins. There was a fond term, something on the tip of his tongue that he very much wanted to say. An answering call to his siren, but the nickname drifted away into the fog of memory.

"It's a good reason to scream."

He glanced aside, catching a look at Alec's upset stomach expression. Sorry cousin, he was making a bungle of this too, wasn't he?

"I was supposed to come here to call all this off, whatever this is, but I can't. I feel like I'm two people. When you are around I want to throw all the rules out the window, just run away together. When I'm with Grace its all, future and kids, and being the best person I can be... Am I loosing my mind?"

He drew in a shaky breath, trying to calm some of these raging emotions before they overran his senses entirely.

"But its not your fault. I don't want you to think any of this is your fault. I just wanted you to know... I need you to hear it once! I think I'm in love with you too."
