Sebastian looked up again at the change in tone and couldn't look away until it was far too awkward and Alec was looking over his shoulder. He held the map so they could both see it and realized he was too tense, he needed to relax. Glancing sideways at Alec he forced himself to breathe and not think about how close Alec was or how tall he was or what made him change his tone or why he was offering to help. These were all things he'd worry about before Jack. The why.

But the tone of Alec's voice was slightly comforting and he was in a new and different place. Maybe he should stop wondering why and start being more accepting. Jack would want him to be more open to the possibilities.

"If we're both new how are you suppose to help me find my way?"
