The public thing can be fixed! And it's not like they have to walk back to the apartments hand-in-hand. That part comes later.
Wing is very definitely not shy, though he does have a healthy sense of propriety and that's part of what keeps him on the ground, propped up on his elbows, rather than reaching for Deadlock or the paper again.
The other part is a small sense of defeat, and the realization that pride aside, the Decepticon knowing his little secret is not so bad. Except the big reveal isn't what Wing thought it would be. It would make more sense if not for his mistake in taking the ability to read for granted and forgetting about Deadlock's past in the gutters.
Wing stares for a moment, more confused than ever, trying not to look hurt and failing more than a little. A frown threatens his own face as a chill seeps into him that the bonfire could never dispel. "Why is it so strange that I might want to see you happy?"
