If John was expecting Bobby to have a problem with keeping an eye on their friend after she'd been attacked, he was going to be surprised. Bobby nodded curtly at John's words. "Yeah, good idea."

As much as he hated to admit it, John's logic did make some sense. "Wait, but how would they know she's a mutant, in that case?" he pointed out as the thought occurred to him. "Maybe it was just a random thing." Which didn't mean he wouldn't be on his guard going forward. He wasn't taking chances. If someone had found out what Em was, it wasn't at all a stretch to think they could know about him and John too, and wouldn't it be convenient? Two mutants at one address.

He glanced toward the front of the house, wondering if they were safe here, even.
