These two men are more like a couple than Louis and Charlotte.

Zachary glowered upon hearing the whisperings. This gossip happened to back Bruce’s suggestive remark earlier.

“Goodness! What are they talking about?” Louis was so embarrassed that his cheeks flushed. “They actually thought that you and I…”
