Will's hold on her didn't hurt her it felt like the only life line she had anymore. She only felt worth while these days in his arms and it was a comfort. She buried her face in his neck and shook with her tears as she tried to get them under control. The tears just kept coming though as all the hurt from the past few years poured out of her.
She bit back a sobbing laugh when Will spoke how he was glad she wasn't his mother. The tears still wouldn't stop but she had stopped sobbing. "I love you too...I just can't sit around though, Will. I'm going insane. I need to do something. I wasn't made to lay around worthless."
No matter what laying around doing nothing was being worthless to English. Sitting down to rest was being worthless, sleeping was being worthless, recooperating from a broken leg was worthless. She would be worthless till she could properly walk again and nothing would change that.
