Luckily for Josh, he has an empath with him. The more Josh seeks to press himself to Avalon's side, the more the Nalorian welcome him, an arm sliding around Josh's middle, while those silver wings of his close around the other boy once more in a gesture of comfort.
Or maybe more.
Avalon can feel the conflicting emotions in Josh, and already he is just as on edge as his Earthling friend. Being subjected to so many emotions thanks to Henry and Katima, and then having them echoed by poor Josh is just as hard on Avalon as it was for Josh. They have a feedback loop of sorts going, one that seems like there is little escape from.
Then Avalon has an idea. He draws in a deep breath, his voice low in their shared space as he murmurs "Josh.. several days ago, you asked me if I knew if I wanted you for you.. or just because I was hurt by Henry. May I make a confession?"
