Why did that hurt so much? Why did it bother me that he could forget about it like it never happened? Like fuck, he was the first and only guy I’d ever kissed. How was I supposed to forget that? Actually, he was the first person I’d ever kissed and…felt all that with.
As always, Maddox acts with his emotions first - Devon uses (flawed) logic - they need to work on their communication styles and both need to learn some qualities from the other one. It's interesting that Maddox can accept his queerness, but still can't rationalize it because he doesn't totally understand it.
