Xander didn't like the look the man gave him. He felt the auras around him like they were churning his stomach. Too many. This hadn't been a good idea from the start. His hand clung to the smaller one in his. Asha snapped back at Rowan and Xander ignored her comment for the first time as he stumbled towards the door. Outside, was his only thought he had to get away from them. From all of it. The balcony offered the quickest route to fresh air, but that wasn't what he needed. Space, away. And the thought of leaving Asha here alone turned his stomach. She was here to meet someone...
He ignored everyone as he headed out the double doors that had been magically flung open. He didn't care if he was being rude. She was rude to begin with and she could flaunt her powers in front of the snake and see the ramifaications herself. Fucking idiot.
Each step Xander took he felt better, but there were still too many people. He whispered over the churning of his stomach, "I don't want to leave you here to wait alone for your meeting." He couldn't do it. He wasn't sure if he wanted to tell her or not. They were down the stairs in the main area before Xander spoke again in a hushed whisper, "He was a snake."
