Whether Tony simply didn't get the looks Jeff and Lucas were exchanging or whether he was purposefully ignoring them wasn't clear, but was probably an easy enough guess. He returned the humorless chuckle and shrugged his shoulders. "I guess I forgot to take it off! Probably because I'm always wearing it, you know?" That last rhetorical question was emphasized by his drawing the words out and flashing a side glance to Jeff before he fell into line behind Lucas.

He couldn't help scrunching his face up into a frustrated pout once their backs were to him. The least Jeff could do was be honest if there was something going on between him and Lucas; acting like Tony hadn't the foggiest idea was just insulting the poor boy.
