"Fine! The very last thing I need is your care!" Gus holds his bag in a death fist, body so tightly strung with tension, it would only take one little, push. And he'd fly out of control. He sneers at Shawn's back.
"Go ahead, run away, hate to think you'd maybe try something different." But that doesn't mean Gus is going to stand in the background and watch him walk away, again. He's done that far too many times to count. Gus steps forward, equally as determined to leave.
"Yeah, one word from you and this whole thing came crashing down. You already proved that part. Shawn givith and Shawn takith away." Gus grimpses. "You seem to do an aweful lot of controlling for someone who fights their whole life against it. Did you ever think of that? You're the one who set this up, Shawn. You practically handed me these people! And then when I think, maybe, just maybe I can have friendships... you rip it out from under me."
Gus doesn't want to face Shawn. He hates the rawness of his own voice right now. "I knew it wasn't going to last. Not because I'm not one of them. I know I'm not! It's just...you have everybody wherever you go. For a while, I thought I had something like that too." He ends it stiffly. More of an explantion than he wanted to give Shawn. Terrified of what it may or may not mean.
