The reply to the first remark was on Mike's lips when Briggs cursed. He twisted around to see what was wrong and felt his stomach hit the floor. This wasn't good. This really wasn't good. With the way Briggs looked, there was no way this would be easy on him. Not with his history.
Cursing under his breath, he knew there was only one thing to do. Trying to find the balance between haste and care, he stuffed himself back into his pants and zipped up. In pain, but moderately decent, he got to his feet and went to the camera.
"We had a deal!" His voice came out more frantic than he intended. He couldn't let Briggs in on the actual details. Then it wouldn't work. "You've got no idea what you're doing to him! It's me you want, I'm the one who lied to you, not him!"
