His first attempt hadn't gone so well. Billy had been trying to help and had been the one who unfortunately bore the brunt of it. Adam still feels bad, he hadn't really been hurt but he had been bodily forced off the bench. Adam doesn't like feeling unpredictable, it's what had made his rage so frightening in the end. He couldn't control himself. And here and now it's like the potential for violence and pain inside of him has been made realised and he's still terrified that he might be the one to harm Gansey in the end.

It's impotent and he feels his cheeks burning a little in frustration. Adam is failing and there's nothing he can do, Adam is --.

It bursts out of him suddenly with a crackle of sound. His eyes fly open and he thinks there's not enough room between them to protect Gansey.
