James had to sit down, his head was spinning and he kept feeling like he was about to sink off into some deep dark abyss that threatened to consume him. He heard the hum of a car, but he just couldn’t keep his head up anymore. Not until he felt hands on his face. He was preparing for a strike, by when he heard Eames’ voice, the rest of the world started to melt away. A wave f relief washed over the former assassin and he felt the heaviness leave. “Eames.” he breathed out, wrapping his arms around the other. He held the other man close and focused on the sound of his voice

Eames couldn’t even imagine the panic going through James’ head at that moment. He could see the panic in the words, knew that whatever it was had to have been bad enough to beg him to come find him. And it hurt to know that he was out there terrified beyond belief. Especially when he found him just sitting on the ground like some lost child. All he’d wanted to do was pick him up and take him back to his flat. First, though, he had to calm him down. Otherwise the ride back would be full of more tension than either one of them wanted. “Shh, James, I’m here,” he told him, wrapping his arms around him. It didn’t matter that people were looking at them, that they’d stopped to stare at two men holding each other like there was nothing else going on in the world. All that mattered was James and making certain he was okay. “I told you I would come. All you had to do was ask. And here I am. Just like I said I would. Whatever it is that got you we’ll work through it, a'right?”
