What if they try to poison your parents next?!" The last sentence was directed at Pam as well. Jez set down her cutlery and folded her arms, glaring pointedly at her friends.
When Jez's voice got heated Nate shot up from under the table, successfully hitting his head on the underside of said table. "Ouch..." he murmured, rubbing the back of his skull. But there were more important things to worry about. "No, Keegan didn't have any. There was only enough for me. But I
do understand what this means, and I'm
extremely scared. I'm trying to hide it as well as I can..." Nate admitted. After fainting, he didn't need any more attention on him. After all, they had all night to talk about it in the common room, and that was a much better place to worry. "I don't need more publicity," he added, extending a hand for a quick squeeze of Jez's. That was what Nate needed. Comfort. And the food was helping, but it wasn't enough. What he really needed was to know that Pam and Jez were safe. Then he could worry about his parents.
