He clung a little tighter to Alex's hand, even as frustration flared inside. He hadn't told Alex his secret, risked everything in doing that, just for him to go ahead and leave anyway, just like everyone left.
"I don't want you off somewhere protecting my secret. That's not why I told you. I told you because I trust you, and...and I want you to know who I am, and..." He didn't fully have the words, didn't want to pathetically beg Alex not to leave him, but he could feel everything roiling around inside of him, and he hated the feeling. "You said if I could get my hand fixed, you'd go away with me. And now that you know, you want to leave?"
