Jehan heard Courfeyrac's return, but he did not move to greet him. He hid himself in the narrow alleyway between two buildings, feigning he was looking for more furniture, but in truth he knew a pain would be upon him soon. He almost cried out, biting into his own sleeve as he waited for the pain to pass, doubled over and clutching his stomach with one hand. The minute crawled by slowly. Once it was gone, he wiped the sweat away, calming his breath before he stepped out, trying to look as normal as possible. "Courfeyrac," he called toward him, smiling at the sight of his love, and moving to greet him. "Don't sound so troubled. I'm not going to vanish," he promised.
