[From Patrick's journal: Describing Tom]
Younger Patrick : His eyes lit up when he saw my card... He said he'd never been to Brighton's most noble institution, even on a school trip! I invited him to visit the museum as my guest. He seemed interested... I haven't been able to stop thinking about him... He's handsome, yes. But there's something else. Innocence, combined with a curiosity... I'd like to draw him. But I wonder if he'd misunderstand... I'd almost forgotten that some people are still innocent.

Younger Patrick : You touched me first.
