This is what Alex was thinking when the panic turns to outright sobbing, and all of his conclusions disperse into the stale air. Neil is crying, and the Courier is at an outright loss.
He twists to his side, pulls Neil's hands down to hold together in one large hand. Alex cups the back of Neil's head to hold him closer, and kisses the thin line that represented loss. ]
