Remi's quick and easy stepping down made Emmett feel guilty suddenly, though he knew he was likely entirely validated to be worried for his safety in this situation. Still, his heart pleaded with him to make a compromise, so after a moment he stepped forward again.

Suddenly Remi would feel a wave of embarrassment as Emmett tried to think of a way to explain his knowledge of this, but he couldn't think of anything. A safe word? Y'know, like a phrase I say when it's getting too far.
