"Alex!!" Nix called out before his head could slip off where he had leaned on.
Jolting awake and in confusion, he frowned and closed his mouth.
Nix narrowed his eyes at how Alex had been blanking out at every chance of inactivity for over three days since they had planned their escape.
They were going to carry out their plans in a few days and he looked mentally drained.
"Do you know when Sid will be back?" Nix tried to start a conversation.
Blinking a few times before he understood what was being said and shook his head. "All he had said was that he would be busy with a task, so it might take a while before he would be back.'"
Even though they were roommates, the sense of familiarity was still out the window.
Nix had asked the question, not because he wanted to know where Obsidian was, but rather to confirm that they were alone and he could understand what had been wrong with Alex.
