Alex closed his eyes. At least he could sort of explain Michael and the others keeping him out of what was going on last night. Michael had told him what was going on with him; he hadn’t shared the details with what was going on with the rest of them. And maybe he would have, but Alex had walked away after finding that console.
But Kyle and Cameron had been the ones to fill him in on current events. Hell, he’d been there when Kyle had found out who was really responsible for his dad’s death and it was that truth that had shaken a few things clear in him.
He rubbed at his eyes and then snapped them open when Kyle said that his father had actually shot Kyle. He was moving before he knew it, reaching over and pressing his hand against the bruise. “You didn’t break anything, did you?” Alex had worn enough of those vests to know that they usually stopped what they needed to, but you might have to suffer a bruised or even broken rib depending.
But then Kyle continued, talking about Noah and how Liz had been stabbed and Alex couldn’t help but notice the one name missing in that disturbing tableau. He stopped pressing against Kyle’s chest and asked quietly, “Michael was supposed to meet me this morning. You haven’t heard from him, have you?”
Maybe he should have been more upset by that, but he’d been okay with his father actually being shot. That Kyle had found a way to stop him while still keeping that part of his soul? It seemed like Kyle was doing better than Alex was in terms of his father.
