Xeno gasped for air when Fiona's hand was no longer around his neck. He held a hand over his upper part of the chest, as if that should help him catch his breath. His neck felt sore from the grip. A few seconds passed before he looked up on everyone, and gave them a nod to show that he was fine. What just happened? Fiona had been distanced from him and seemed upset about what just happened, even more upset than he felt himself.
Then he heard an angry voice against Fiona, when he noticed where the voice came from he went a step closer to Jude putting a hand on his shoulder. "It's fine." His voice was almost a whisper, though it was not intended to sound like that. He could still feel the grip clearly on his neck as he spoke, which made him touch his neck lightly with his finger tips.
