Sea life protection is a task for the peaceful, the Earth lovers, the ones that will never turn violent…so they say.

The man with the baseball cap stifled a grin as he approached the jetty that was still blocked by the police. Among other spectators, he watched the still smoldering remnants of the fishing boats. When he had seen enough, he walked away, and his smile turned to a full laugh.

Hands cuffed behind his back, Matthew went on his knees and made his way to Nicolas. “Hey, buddy, wake up. It’s way past time for you to have a look around.” He flinched seeing the wound on his partner’s left temple and the blood that had trickled across his cheek and chin. “They got you bad, hmm?” Nudging him was not enough, and Nicolas’s breathing was labored. Decisive to help him, Matthew bent to put his lips, then his teeth around the upper edge of the duct tape where blood had kept the tape from sticking firmly to the skin. He pulled it off the moment Nicolas opened his eyes. They were nose to nose for a second. Matthew spat out the tape that stuck to his lips.

“It’s not what it looks like,” Matthew said and brought distance between them.

“What does it look like?” Nicolas’s voice was raspy and weak.

“That I was about to kiss you.”

“Oh.” Nicolas looked around, his eyes still half closed. “Where are we? What happened after I passed out?”

“I can’t tell you. They clubbed me down first.” Matthew inhaled as he followed Nicolas’s gaze. “Somewhere close to the waterfront. You can smell salt in the air.”
