Which feels like a terrible thing to say. Because it feels like he betrayed Steve somehow. By... Developing a crush?
Falling in love at a distance?
"I made the bracelet with you in mind." Just gonna. Own up to that. "I heard you were there and I wanted to make something and then Steve saw it and said I should give it to someone and you. Were actually there. So."

He just thinks he should be less of a disaster, maybe.
