Even when he closes his eyes, Grey can feel Manabu's gaze on him- searching, assessing, comparing, finding lacking... He can't bear it, he has to get away.
His eyes snap open again and for a moment, his gaze darts towards the apartment door. He could tear it open, bolt down those stairs, Manabu wouldn't be able to chase him in the state he's in. He'd be left completely helpless. With nothing and nobody to protect him if anybody came by looking for a missing test subject.
Grey can't just run away, but he feels damned defenseless himself in front of Manabu. His gaze darts to the other side of the kitchen, to the bathroom. Good enough.
Grey practically throws himself into the bathroom, and slams the door shut behind him. He locks the door for good measure, then collapses onto the floor, cramped between the sink and the wall.
no subject
