                                                            ~ Tyler ~

It had been a week so far. A whole week of poking and prodding, questions and tests - it was beyond infuriating and Sean was seriously fed up with it. He wanted to go home. He hated the whole process, he hated the fact that he’d been down in their record rooms every day for hours on end trying to find out information on the Jefferson Organisation, and so far he knew nothing more than what we’d been told by the council at the meeting. Mostly he hated the fact that I was here and he felt that put me in danger. The silly boy hadn’t relaxed at all in seven days, his nerves were frazzled, his moods bad, his temper on edge so that people were wary of him because he snapped at the drop of a hat and shouted at people. I think that was all due to the fact that he barely slept at the moment; he was slowly killing himself with exhaustion.

His hands cupped the side of my face, his blue eyes searching mine as he looked at me with that expression that showed me exactly how he felt about me, I would never be able to describe that look in a million years but it made my insides squirm and the hair on my arms to prickle. I pressed myself closer to him; his scent filled my lungs making my heart pick up double time. I smiled reassuringly and ran my hand over his chest, playing with the collar on his t-shirt. Our goodbye was like this everyday, no words spoken, he just seemed to prepare himself to leave me for a few hours, then we’d go our separate ways until dinner time.

Finally, he sighed and broke the intense wordless plea he was conveying through his eyes. Today’s worry was worse than normal because we were going to different places today. I was heading to the lab because they had something they wanted to test on me to do with my visions, and Sean was going with Roland and Charles to meet with some important people from the English government. Apparently there was a division in their government that worked with the shifter council to do with the Organisation because both humans and shifters were affected, they had some sort of agreement to share information or something, it was all a little hush-hush but I guess Sean would find out more when he got there.

“So I’ll see you in a few hours. You stay with Jeremy, okay?” he instructed, looking at me sternly.

I nodded in confirmation. Sean liked Jeremy so I think that calmed him slightly that Jeremy was my personal scientist, I worked with him everyday. “Will do. Go to your meeting, you’re gonna be late if you don’t hurry.”

A frown crossed his forehead and I could feel the conflict inside him, he hated to leave me. Everything would be easier once we were back in America; he would calm down more because most of the worry came from the fact that he didn’t know the people or places here very well so it magnified his concerns. The trouble was that we didn’t know how long we would be here for - school started for me again in about eight weeks, but I didn’t really want to spend the whole summer here - for one thing it was damn cold in England!

“Love you, Tyler.” I smiled at the honesty in his voice. I never thought I would have anything even remotely like what I have with Sean, I never thought anyone would want me after what happened to me, but the way Sean somehow made me strong enough to deal with all of that stuff, he made everything better, cleaner, I didn’t feel dirty and used when Sean looked at me the way he was right now.

“You too. Now go!” I instructed, laughing and pushing him away from me.

He groaned and tightened his hold on me as his soft lips pressed against mine in a passionate kiss that made my stomach flutter with happiness, and then it was over. He broke the kiss, turned on his heel and walked out without another word, closing the door behind him. I tried not to focus on the dread and nervousness that he felt inside because he was leaving. Also, I probably wouldn’t have contact with him today either, the tests they were doing on me today should block me from Sean completely, well, that was the plan anyway - they wanted to test out some new drug on me or something and then test my abilities again. This was what was worrying Sean the most. He’d made me promise that my cellphone wasn’t to leave my hand the whole time. It funny how quickly you can get used to the constant contact with someone, once that connection was broken - well, if they could break it, that was one of the tests - it would be awfully quiet inside my head without Sean and his feelings barging their way in there. I wasn’t sure I was going to like it, I loved the fact that he was close to me even when he physically wasn’t.
