Chapter Nineteen
"I don't understand, you're leaving? Why?" Robert clamoured as he ran to catch up with Mycroft who was striding back towards the hotel purposely. When he received no answer to his question he reached out to grip the older man's wrist and halting him in his tracks. As Mycroft turned to face his partner, a coil of concern settled in Robert's stomach as he took note of the tear stained cheeks even though the pale eyes staring back at him were bone dry.
"Mycroft." He whispered gently, as he searched for some way to offer his comfort even though he was completely confused as to what was going on to make him come so undone. He went to raise his hand up towards the other man's face but Mycroft drew back, a hard unsettling emotion crossing his features before blankness once more.
"I don't want or need your pity Robert." He sniffed in distaste as he stepped back once more, putting even more distance between the two of them. "I must return to London as soon as possible. Somebody…close to me needs my assistance, you should stay here."
"I- Do I have a choice?"
"No." Mycroft replied sternly as he glanced over his shoulder quickly and then back. "I'm sorry but believe me; this wasn't how I planned it to go."
" Yeah, me neither." A slightly disoriented chuckle left Robert's lips before he could hinder the action. "But you know, we were only in each other's company for almost three weeks. Guess I didn't expect anything."
Mycroft didn't have an answer for that so he nodded curtly and turned to leave when Robert spoke up again, his quiet voice carried by the now harsher wind.
"They're pretty special then, this person! They'd have to be I guess, to have a hold on your entire heart like that and make you drop everything in an instant."
Mycroft stopped and smiled sadly at the student, his gaze thoughtful, longing, and melancholy all at once.
"Yes. Yes I suppose he must be."
