They Found Me
#24
Connor sighed. Ok, this was gonna be a bit tough. He'd have to think fast. For some reason, it reminded him of the older guy he ran into in that antique bookstore in Moscow. There was a sense of menace to him and despite the innocent situation and Connor had had to lie his ass off for all he was worth. 

It wasn't amy sense of menace he got from Nox. But the situation was delicate all the same. He'd had some vague ideas of what to say, but, as they say, the best laid plans go up in smoke after the first shot is fired.

He looked at Ayden. His wife. Carrying his child. This wasn't about his life. This was aboilut his family. Which meant he had to dance. 

He laughed, as if it wasn't a big deal. "I wouldn't say taking my wife off the Ath- their radar was nothing. So I do owe you." 

He paused. This was all completely true, even of being said to manipulate. "And, well...I've seen videos of you online. I watched a bunch of them, honestly. A bunch of times. And then I just got to thinking about it- what it must be like with this power and the attention and the fighting- and, for some reason I just got kinda worried about you. I know you can take care of yourself. I know that. He didn't say thay Nox reminded him of his son. 

But of he had to put words to it, that was it. And Connor would have done anything to help Hayden. Anything.

"Anyway, doing what I do and knowing the people I know, I tracked you down. It.was just gonna be a call to say hey. But here you are back in the States. And, well, I just figured maybe you could use help- or at least a friend.

He looked at Ayden and smiled. Don't mind my wife. She doesn't bite. Not too hard anyway. Still, if you are worried about her, I can keep her out of this. Not a secret; we don't do that. But not involved."
