    Summary

    “It’s nothing, Gil. Goodnight.”

    JT fumbles with his coat, tries to pretend he wasn’t just listening in, but if Malcolm knows he doesn’t mention it. He just gives JT a little wave, and tells him goodnight, too, taking out his phone and tapping away on it as he nudges his way out the door into the night.

    Gil sighs, standing in the doorway, bracing himself against the frame. He’s never looked his age, but now he looks so, so much older.

    “He’s not okay, is he?” JT asks, after a moment, and Gil doesn’t respond. Doesn’t have to.

    It wasn’t nothing.

    Whatever happened, it wasn’t nothing.
