“We should get moving,” Mike says to the President. He nods, and the group hurries off the tarmac. Tom hurries into one of the vehicles, while Aaron and Kendra get into their respective rides.

Kendra glances over at the remaining two, “Do you guys need a ride?”

“We can get a cab,” Lyor responds before Seth can accept the offer, and Kendra drives off.

“I don't want to take a cab,” Seth sighs.

“Good,” Lyor replies, “We aren't.” He starts walking, and Seth hurries after him. “What are we doing?”

“Walking, it's healthier. And we lost our luggage anyway.” Seth groans, and follows him. “Isn't your apartment the other way?”

“I'm walking you home first,” Lyor responds.

“Why?” Seth asks, “You don't care.”

“Last time you walked off there was a tsunami,” Lyor sighs, “You have a bad track record.”

Seth rolls his eyes. Lyor smirks slightly. They walk in silence for a while. “You didn't mention saving kids,” Lyor comments eventually.

“I just didn't think that it was relevant,” Seth responds.

Lyor nods. “Nice work, I suppose.”

“Can we not talk about this? I just want to forget it happened,” Seth says.

“Sure,” Lyor nods, and they continue in silence. When they arrive at Seth’s apartment building they stand awkwardly. Seth tries to turn towards the building, but something stops him from moving. The same thing stops Lyor from turning back towards his own apartment. Seth opens his mouth, and then closes it. Lyor gestures towards where he should be going, in an effort to remind his own brain that he should start going there. “Do you want to…” Seth pauses. Lyor looks at him. “Well… your apartment is pretty far, you could crash on my couch.” He pauses, instantly regretting the offer.

“I'd better not,” Lyor says eventually, “I have to get back to my place and get a fresh pair of clothes and stuff.”

Seth nods quickly, glad that the dark of the night hides his embarrassment, and hurries into the building, not looking back. Lyor walks away, looking back multiple times.
