[Running from demons counts as a "pinch". It's different from the monsters they usually fight. These aren't something that Jack can punch or stab or send an arrow into. These things could do something worse than kill him; they could control him. Jack's had his fill of that.
Their hiding place will also do in a pinch. Jack knows what Johnny will do if they're found, as clearly as if he could read his mind. A part of him is probably hoping for it. He's hyper aware of how close they are too, though a few seconds of silence isn't long enough for his mind to start to wander. Jack seems the interruption in the light coming through the blinds, and then Johnny is even closer than ever.
Jack knows what he's doing. He grew up with bodyguards, and more than once another man has put his body between Jack and danger. But not like this.
Jack catches his eye and shakes his head slowly. Don't you dare do it, Johnny Storm. You don't risk yourself for him.]
