[ Poe stays very still. He can't help remembering the way he thought about kissing Karen almost a month ago now, the way they did kiss later. This is dangerous ground, it's foreign territory, it's something he wants and he doesn't know what to do with it in either case.
But he doesn't want John to think he did something wrong. Not when the man so rarely seems to show this part of himself. Poe's never seen it outside of the bedroom. The change in context means more than it should.
So Poe reaches out and brushes John's leg with his fingertips, another silent thank you.
The driver interrupts the moment. "We're coming up to the walkway to the caves. That's as far as I can take you."
Poe drags in a breath and looks to the front of the cab. ] That's fine.
