Off to the side, Blaise and Theo watched the madness unfold. Carefully, so as not to draw attention to the both of them, Blaise reached down and grabbed Theo’s hand, intertwining their fingers together. Quietly, voice barely a whisper, he spoke to his husband, "Theo, if things go awry here tonight, I want you to know how much I love you. And I need you to promise me something—I need you to promise that you won’t do anything rash. Don’t lock yourself away like you did the last time you had your heart broken. Don’t go back to Egypt—don’t push everyone away." He said this all in a rush, without taking a breath.
