Doesn't take a genius to know that.

You'd be surprised how many people don't realise that.

Cassie, right?

Not really, I know how stupid people can be.

You like being called John or Luther?

*He chuckles.*

I suppose you do.

Either's fine. No point lying to you about my name.

Kinda defeats the purpose of an amazing code name, doesn't it?

Its not an amazing code name. Really think I'd use John Doe for a code name?

They've caught our trail again?

*He sighs, nodding.*

We have to move. Again.

[Curses quietly]

How soon?

The next couple hours would be preferred. But we've got a day, at least.

Sooner is better than later. Come on, let's pack and move out.

*He sighs, moving slowly to start packing his things.*

They don't know about France yet. Mostly because we're not sure when or where we'll land, I think.

Would it be worth the effort to go somewhere else first? Settle into Spain or Russia or where ever else and move to France a few weeks after.

No, no decisions yet. We go to the airport and then we decide.

[Moves to wrap his arms around Luther from behind, kissing his neck] Mm. Not decisions, just options.

I'm not going to let anything happen to you, whether they get close or not.

I'm not worried about me. I can't lose you. I can't go back to what I was before I was with you.

[squeezes]

I'm not going anywhere, love. I promise.

*He nods, turning in his arms and hugging back.*

I wish we could stop running.

I know. I do too. We will one day.

I hope so.

*He leans up to press a kiss to his lips.*

Technically you can. You just can't hide, and running doesn't even work very well.

Same difference. The point is, they find you.

That much is unfortunately true.

And there's no escaping.
