When they reached the door, Axel couldn't bring himself to knock or use the doorbell, his hand hovered near the door for a moment before dropping back to his side.
He turned toward Ivan and Dallas, almost unconsciously, as if hoping their presence might give him the courage to knock, but the moment he looked at them, his brows immediately pulled together in confusion.
Ivan and Dallas were looking at each other again. It was the same look Axel had caught before, it was as if they were sharing something without words.
This time Axel couldn't ignore it. And he definitely couldn't stay quiet about it. "Okay, is there something I'm missing?" Axel said suddenly, "Every time I turn to look at you two, it's like you're having a whole conversation with your eyes." he added, unable to pinpoint exactly how he felt or what to make of Ivan and Dallas's recent behavior.
