The edges of the shadows snapped back to their normal state as if they had never been twisted at all and the air cleared immediately. Keegan was taken aback by the response. He couldn't think of what to say. So he just stood there staring at the mysterious stranger with his mouth partway open until he gracefully whisked away to deal with the suited man. Mrs. Blackwell closed it gently for him.

It took a few more seconds of stupefied gawking before Keegan snapped himself out of his euphoric haze and returned to the real world. Even a few more to drag himself away from his newfound soul-mate and dive into the warped glove box to get his information. He felt dizzy. Dizzy enough to drop most of the contents of the box onto the floor before taking what he needed and just leaving the rest there. When he returned the firey young man was back. For some reason which he really couldn't put his finger on, he was comforted that he was here. And even more comforted that he was talking all this so well and not screaming at him or running away in shame.

[color=a0410d][b]"Yeah, trust me, as much as I want to just duck outta here--"[/b][/color] he started.

The cops stepped up to them. He didn't feel the need to finish that sentence and just thrust a thumb over his shoulder at them with a shrug. The irritation the young man was putting off was almost palpable as much as he tried to hide it behind his smile.

[color=a0410d][b]"I-- I'm sorry. I'll try and make it quick. Then we..."[/b][/color] he took a breath and shrugged again, [color=a0410d][b]"Should  talk or something right? I mean we probably need to talk. Just... Don't go anywhere."[/b][/color]

He went to go speak to the officers but only got a couple of steps before immediately whipping back and grabbing the man's hand in a firm shake. A tingle that turned into a full on chill rushed up his arm and all the way down his spine. The burning sensation was gone.

[color=a0410d][b]"Keegs--"[/b][/color] he shook his head, [color=a0410d][b]"Keegan Lowry, by the way. Good to have you here."[/b][/color]
