He watches her go, understanding what she wants, but this will never be a normal marriage. This will never be "typical". And he hates it. Grabbing his garment bag, he heads for the other bathroom and doesn't slam the door, but it's a close thing. He can't... he can't give her the spontaneity that she deserves. Everything has to be planned. Because of his damned power. Because he could kill her if they're not careful.
He slams his fist against the tile wall, hating that he can't be like other mutants. He can't be the spontaneous, happy, does what he wants when he wants guy. He can't do that. Not even for her.
Kevin is not going to analyze right now why it's important to him for her to have all those things. He just knows he can't do it.
He takes a deep breath and wishes he could talk to someone, anyone, about how horrible her life is going to be, tethered to a man who can't touch her. He pulls out his phone. His go-to is to call Father Frankie, but he won't do this time. He just... wouldn't understand. So, he calls Josh. Because he needs someone to talk to him about this.
