Alex checked his watch for what felt like the tenth time that morning. Or...it probably qualified as afternoon by now. He wasn't sure whether he should be worried for Michael because something had clearly been wrong or upset that he had apparently forgotten that he was supposed to meet so they could talk. He knew he wasn't a part of whatever was going on with them, but it was the first time he'd wished he was.
Hope filled him when his cell phone went off and his heart clenched a little when he saw the name. Kyle could be calling him for any number of reasons, but he couldn't help but consider that Kyle was a doctor.
"Is everyone all right?" were his first words after answering the call. He didn't even know if Max or Isobel knew that he knew. They might not give him a straight answer if he went up to them and asked what had happened last night. They might not, but Kyle would. If he knew. Alex's frame of reference began and ended with his father and the little information Michael had given him before Alex had walked away again. Kyle had been the one working on a cure with Liz and directly treating Isobel.
