After Sterling bumped into Nox, he became hyper-aware of everything else around him. The power was being used as a tool now for his senses much more so than before. He'd been pushing it all away except for the feeling of Raffe's hand in his. Beads of sweat formed on his brow with the strain of it all. He was tired. He needed to heal. The doors whooshed open and Nox glanced up from his little cousin who was still fuming about his suggestion.
A brunette walked in followed by another. Kali? What the fuck was she doing here. He didn't expect to see her ever again. And she saw him and made her way to them.
"Nox."
"Excuse me. We were talking here. What gives you the right to interrupt us so rudely."
Kali was eyeing Nox and she went to touch him, Nox grabbed Sterling with a weave of air and pulled her behind him stepping in front of Raffe but not letting go of his hand. He didn't need his limbs to protect anyone even as tired as he was. "Don't touch me." Nox pulled away from her touch before she touched him. The reaction was almost violent, but he hadn't felt that way before. Something pushed at the edge of his memories. Something important. Something he should know. A pair of green eyes floated in his mind and he blinked back the memories. Aria...
Nox wove a thin wall of air between himself and Kali, it wouldn't stop anything for long but it would keep her from touching him without time to react to it. He didn't remember why he shouldn't let Kali touch him, but he wasn't going to let it happen now. "What are you doing here Kali?"
"We were just visiting an old friend. Weren't we?" Kali turned to the woman with her.
