By the time they’d gotten their hands on a car and were well on their way from the fight, Kell’s head had begun pounding in earnest. The dull ache from before had returned with a vengeance and the pain was not helping Kell’s foul mood. Johnny drove in silence, paying attention to the road before them, interrupted by glances in the rearview mirror. After a couple of hours had passed, Johnny’s glances became more focused on Kell.

“Are you okay?” Johnny finally asked.

Kell huffed. “Oh, I’m great. I’ve spent the past twenty-four hours or so being hunted, attacked, terrorized, and all around fucked with. I woke up yesterday wondering about normal stuff like bills and splurging on a coffee, but now, now I get to run to who the hell knows where with a bunch of insane people, werewolves, and witches chasing me the whole way.”

“I understand this must be trying,” Johnny began.

Kell gave an ugly laugh. “You understand? Then why don’t you try to share some of your understanding with me? Because so far, all I’ve got are some half explanations and a whole lot of frustration. I barely knew stuff like this existed and now I’m trying to learn on the run. The only thing I’ve learned is that the world is even more nuts than before. All I’ve got on my side so far is you, and how long until our luck runs out, Johnny? Because I don’t know about you, but it feels like we’re working with odds we have no chance against.”

It didn’t help that he’d felt Johnny pull away from him in the house. Something had changed between the two of them, even if it had been for a moment. Kell had been growing comfortable with the idea of something blossoming between them. Even after the kiss, of which just the memory made Kell’s body tingle, he wasn’t so sure he was going to have a chance in hell with Johnny. On top of everything else going wrong around him, he didn’t know how to deal with wanting Johnny yet knowing there was a good chance he’d never have him.

Johnny winced. “I would have never chosen any of this for you if I’d had a say in the matter, Kell. I promise you that. I’m doing the best I can with what little we have.”

Kell knew that but he didn’t think it was going to be enough. When Johnny’s face caved in a little more, Kell realized the thought had been broadcast. Kell didn’t want to hurt the man, but he was scared and frustrated. It infuriated him even more that he couldn’t even have angry thoughts without them being overheard.

Johnny leaned away from him as he drove. “I’m not trying to hear them, I swear. But you’re…broadcasting quite heavily at the moment. It’s an effort to not hear them. Either your emotions are making them stronger, or your emotions are making your telepathy stronger.”

“Amounts to the same damn result,” Kell growled, now leaning away from Johnny as well, hoping the space would help.
