Rachel's eyes widened but she dipped her head down, forehead pressed against his hand which she still held in her hands. She wanted to hide the look of horror on her face, not just for Danny but because of Zoe and Cai too. They had seen stuff? She supposed she must have realised that... She knew Zoe had a vision that led to his rescue.
She didn't know much more than that. Zoe hadn't been big on the details.
How much did they know about her boyfriend that she didn't? She clutched his hand, protective of it. She was the only one he'd let touch him, that meant something, didn't it? Even though she wasn't psychic and hadn't been able to help rescue him at all?
Cai wanted to get up off his chair and start pacing, but he kept himself glued to it. He didn't want Danny to flinch at any of his movements ever again. He paled though, visibly.
Zoe wasn't trying to be mean, just honest. She could hear the edge in her voice, but she didn't know how to change it without losing any of her emphasis. They couldn't treat any of this like it was easy. It was not fair on Danny to act like things would be okay.
"You shouldn't have to worry about protecting me," Cai said, quietly, eventually. "That should be my job. I'm taller."
