"Are you alright? Did they manage to hurt you?" I asked him.
"No, thank you for coming before they could hurt me." He told us as we walked out of the room. "Ash, please don't tell your brother about this. I slipped up today and I don't want him worrying."
"Slip up means taking drugs or booze, and that was not slipping up that we walked in on." I told him after he started walking by himself. "What the fuck was that? He targeted you and it sounds like this was not the first time."
"Look, I made mistakes before and I can't try to hide them but I know that the past cannot be changed. I messed up and Achilles got to me today, and this is a mistake that I am not planning to repeat." His whole body language started to shift to more of a nervous person rather than his regular proud stance. "Just please don't mention this to Alexander, he would just get upset and try to hurt himself to protect me."
