[When Mikey picks up the phone, Kim dares to breathe. She takes a couple careful steps to join Mikey and Jimmy, as though this moment were far more casual, stopping just close enough that she could put a hand out to either.
And while Mikey is engrossed in his friends' welfare, she chances a glance at Jimmy, as aloof as she can manage but lingering. They have this, she tells herself. It doesn't stop the tremble in her fingers; she puts her hands together to still them, one hand locked into the other.
She puts the command in her voice anyway as she looks back to Mikey, brows knit. She cuts in cleanly, with a thread of concern:]
It's going to take you a bit to get back across the city. You go, and I'll talk to this guy.
