Shade nodded and gave him a last glance before she stepped outside and closed the door behind her.
When she had left the room and made her way towards the stairs, she could suddenly feel a wave of anxiety take hold of her that for a moment was so strong it nearly brought her to tears. The reason for this wasn´t Gambit, it was the situation. It was a weird feeling she told herself and an unnecessary one, too, since they were safe now and there was no need to feel anxious, but she dimly realised that the reason for her mood ran deeper: they had been in dangerous situations before, but there had always been a moment later when she could get rid of feeling tense. After the kidnapping in Tunisia she had at some point just broken dow and cried, after the sentinel chase, Gambit had not directly been involved and had therefore been there to hug her, after the brawl in the bar they had gone boxing. This time there had been no possibility yet to get rid of her anxiety and she knew that now it was threatening to break through when she felt her hands tingle slightly.
She knew she would have to put it off for a little further so she took a few deep breaths as she made her way to the exit. Gambit´s friend was nowhere to be seen so she left and walked over to where Gambit had told her the cab would be waiting. Back to the mansion she told herself and then do something physical, riding, punching bag, something of the sort. The thought almost made her smile for a reason she could not even name herself.
