Alastair's words had Xavier freezing in the bed, his skin turning an even more ashen color then it already was. He remembered Moody lurking about. The man had been hovering most of the night and all it had done was set Xavier even more on edge then he already had been. He was a healer at Mungo's. He had never done anything to make anyone suspect that he was otherwise and yet all of a sudden Alastor fucking Moody had been hovering and asking questions and claiming that it was all because Benajmin Fenwick was nervous after what had happened to his parents. The situation with his parents had been unfortunate but Xavier hadn't believed for a single moment that that had been the reason why the boy had summoned apparent back up. In order to protect himself though he had had to play along with the rouse even though the only thing he had wanted to do was punch Moody squarely in his face.
"Auror Moody was suppose to have left. Why was he still at Mungo's?" More importantly what had he been doing so close to Xavier's office? As a senior staff member Xavier had earned the right to a private office and as the head of a ward he had had his pick of offices. Having been one who always enjoyed his privacy he had chosen an office tucked out of the way where he could work peacefully but was still close enough to the ward that if he was needed he could make it there quickly. Moody had been caught lurking once already that night. To hear that he had been the one to find him? It set Xavier even further on edge.
Giving up on finding a comfortable position in the bed, Xavier laid back, his gaze settling solely on his son as he took a moment to observe him.
"I would say send them home, that lurking about here isn't needed but I know better then to tell your Mother such a thing. I would never hear the end of it if I did." The frown on his face deepened as he tried to piece together Alastair's words but it was difficult. He was exhausted, he had a ton of questions and it seemed as though he was going to get no answers any time soon.
"If I cannot be at Mungo's, I would prefer to go home. I do not enjoy being in an unknown environment or with healers that I do not know or trust."
