The alarm was sounded at eleven in the morning, the day after Eggsy visited.

The alarms should have gone off before then, but Harry had hacked the machines, pulling and stripping wires and looping the feedback back into itself so there was no sign that he was no longer connected.

He had borrowed clothes by picking his way through the hospital, acquiring one item after another, cards and pass codes and by the time he left, he was dressed and had loose cash, a pilfered phone from a wanker who refused to turn it off and said wanker's credit card, which he used to withdraw the maximum he could and then tossed.

With more CCTV than any other city in the world, he then vanished off the grid.

By the time Eggsy was brought in by Merlin at quarter past midday, Merlin was waiting for another ping from a new internet cafe, the various footage of Harry's escape running behind him, being analysed by technicians for any hints.

"He realised he'd been made and vanished from the last internet cafe in under two minutes. He was off the cameras again within five. You're being authorised to locate and bring in Galahad, before he becomes a target or, worse, gives himself a stroke."

Eggsy didn't take up much, leaving Harry as much room as he could. Chuckling at that tug, then another one when the door opened. Except it was nervous. He trusted Merlin's discretion, but he had to accept that eventually all of this would be talked about. He could only hope, for Harry's sake, they wrote it up to recovery.

Eggsy stayed still, only taking a moment to unbutton his jacket but not worrying about taking it off. Just offering himself to Harry so he could rest.

Eggsy stayed as still as he could, breathing shallowly. Waiting for a seizure that didn't come, scared that eventually the memories would actually cause damage that could take Harry from him.

Glancing up at the knock, he looked a bit surprised, and definitely nervous, that Merlin was there. "I apologize for not reporting like I should've," he said in a low whisper. "I'd planned on it but then..."

Then there had been memory and pain and he had let that go.

"It's my fault again," he said, not whining but owning up to his mistakes. "When he asked me about Arthur, I knew better," he admitted, shaking his head. "I'll hold my ground stronger," he offered, wanting to be responsible and worthy even in this.

"I'll do better to try and keep things calmer and limit how much we talk about the past," he said, already running over in his mind all he could have done differently.

"There's ways of not telling him that ain't lying," he murmured, though he knew Merlin was right. "I should have just kept it to what he asked, nothing more."

And it was a vow he made to himself. Just what he had to, nothing more.

"I could've been pushing," he said, because it was what he was afraid of. "Even if I didn't mean to." He stared up at Merlin, serious and intense. "I got to watch that."

He did just as he was told, silent, intent on Merlin. He was still Eggsy, but he respected his life as a Kingsman as well. Even if he was good for smarting off about it as well.

Eggsy didn't even think, reaching out and stroking his hand along Harry's arm, reminding him he was there, holding him close. Not saying a word until he felt certain he was asleep again.

"And what if he's remembering things wrong," he asked in a soft whisper. He hadn't even meant to but then the words were there. "What if we're like messin' up his memories somehow?"

Or, as he wasn't saying. He. What if he was messing up Harry's memories, making him believe he felt something he hadn't before? He wasn't even sure that was possible, but it was a fear he had.

Eggsy stayed so quiet, just staring at Merlin. He wasn't entirely sure what to say, or even how to say it.

"I guess. I just..." He waved a hand, gesturing to where Harry was asleep against him. "I never saw this before. I couldn't have been that bloody blind, could I?"

Except the memories he held closest were of failing Harry, disappointing him, and then seeing him die. If there had been something else to see, he had blinded himself to it.

"And you don't got t'answer any of this." Because putting Merlin in that spotlight. "And I need to say I will never regret not listening when you said stay away from him, but I should have respected you and the Kingsman more."

Eggsy wondered if that would mean Harry would regret things once he knew he'd let his guard down. Damn but he hated that idea.

"And he didn't want me to see this," he said, shrugging one shoulder with the slightly movement, not wanting to disrupt Harry. Even as he spoke.

"I'll get the tape for you," he murmured softly, stroking Harry's arm once more, trying to soothe him once more.

Eggsy watched Merlin, curious and not sure what all to think. He was physically uncomfortable and he would stay there as long as he had to, just to keep Harry close to him.

"He didn't do shit to take anything away from me," he said, knowing that it was likely that Merlin agreed, but that didn't mean Harry did.

"And what's changed now?" Because he needed to know if he was going to be dealing with Merlin if Harry continued to feel the same way even with his memories.

"What? You're saying he thought before I would turn him down?" He snorted, voice raising slightly because even he knew that he'd acted like a damn fool around Harry and he liked to believe he never did that. Not ever.

"I don't want him doin' anything he'll be upset about. Not with me. All I can do." He'd failed Harry once. He wouldn't again.

"Right until he gets his head screwed on right," he muttered, fearing that reality.

His gaze followed Merlin, making a face. "Yeah, you do that. I'm going to be a pillow. I'm making that my assignment for now," he said, meaning it.

He knew Merlin was right, but it didn't mean much to Eggsy. He liked Harry. That's all that mattered to him. Even though he hadn't been in a relationship either, though he wondered why that was for Harry but he didn't ask.

He smirked at that you can stay. Smiling when Harry snuggled in, considering what Merlin had said.

"When you get you memories back, first thing I'm going to ask is how you haven't dated. Handsome, charming, deadly bloke like you?"

Except he could guess. This was his life, just as it was becoming for Eggsy.

Even in shape as he was, Eggsy was going to pay for this later, but knowing that didn't make him move. Instead staying there, smiling when JB leapt up into the chair and just kept stroking Harry's shoulder, along his back, keeping him close.

Eggsy sighed, shifting and loosening his arms slightly. "Shhh, it's okay. You were just sleeping off your headache," he murmured softly. "How're you feeling?"
