Mental Breakdown

As I was about the close the door behind me, the suspicion from earlier gripped me. "Hey, Dean?" His head perked up at the sound of my voice. "Who pulled the fire alarm?"

He stiffened and his eyes widened in panic. I noted unsteadily as his eyes moved to the CCTV camera and he kept shaking his head. "No one was helping me. What makes you say that?" The hand on the table slid away as he fit it underneath. His body was defensive and I realized I had made a huge mistake. 

I kept my mouth shut as I waited for someone to show up. How was I supposed to make this situation better? I heard footsteps from behind me. It was Sebastian. He was almost running towards me. He stayed hidden from Dean's side and whispered to me. 

"Come out. It's okay."

"It's okay, Dean. I didn't mean anything by that. I'll leave you for a while," I said with a slightly stiff smile and closed the door. I quickly moved away as if the doorknob was on fire.
