Jono curls his fingers into Jackson's shirt, holding him closer. He's had too many people in his life taken from him before he was ready. No way is he allowing Jackson to be another. "I've got a call t' make, too, 'fore we go." It can't hurt to have Josh on standby. Just in case the only way they'll let Jackson leave is dead.
He finally pulls away with another peck to Jackson's mouth before he lets go, needing to get dressed before they go anywhere. And to make that call.
It takes nearly the full half hour before they get to the Nexus, both of their PINpoints recalibrated. Jackson's panic button will take him to the island mutant nation, where Josh can help or the X-Men can take on any comers. Jono's panic button is set for an old nuclear test island in the middle of the Pacific. Far enough away from anybody who could be hurt that he can completely let go with his powers if he has to.
Jono reaches back, catching Jackson's hand with his for a quick squeeze before they move forward, trusting Jackson to tell him when the people they likely need to see appear.
