For a moment Kyle isn't sure he's not going to end up with cracked ribs, and yet he doesn't fight it, doesn't say a word. The tears on the face of a man who has done all Elijah has is more painful than anything he could imagine. He just wants to do whatever he can to stop those tears, to fix whatever has gone wrong. And yet he suspects he won't be able to do that.
And he's right.
He knew about the truth telling, about the things he'd admitted to, and Elijah naming the man he loves and knowing that it means his family is likely to see that. They hadn't meant to talk about that but it's the least of their problems now, isn't it?
"Because somehow it meant saving your family." In his mind there is no doubt that must be it. "I don't know about this Antoinette." And he hates the feelings he has about that, about what if this is Elijah becoming involved with someone he'll regret later? Who like others probably think, is bad for him.
But it isn't the time for his worries, for his feelings that he doesn't deserve Elijah, all the things brought up by that bite that has him telling everyone he's not a good man.
"There's no other reason you would leave your family, Elijah, and from what you've told me, I can't imagine Klaus would either." He hugs him tighter, pressing his cheek to Elijah's to hid his own tears as best that he can.
He wants to ask a million questions, about when and how and what can they do but he knows. The same thing he's been thinking about since they fell in love. They don't leave here.
