The first time they held hands, it was in the bedroom of the little girl who was possessed. The exorcism was over and Tomas took Marcus' fingers tips shyly.
Marcus turned to look at him, smiling lightly and took his entire hand while the parents hugged their little girl, crying and thanking the exorcists.
They leaved the house rapidly, Marcus letting go of the warm hand as they walked down the street through the car. Tomas was injured and sniffed the rest of the nosebleed he had earlier, the demon inside the child was hitting everything and everybody around and seemed to hate tomas' presence.

It was the first time they held hands. And Marcus loved it.
