It's her world, she made me
WHO: Gabriel Gray and Claire Bennet. WHAT: Venting to the one person who will listen. WHEN: Afternoon, after their graffiti convo. RATING: PG-13 for now. STATUS: In progress.
Claire was no longer tip-toeing past her uncle and father's room anymore. She walked with purpose towards Gabriel's room, the weight on her chest already seeming to lighten at the prospect of going to someone who would not only listen without screaming, but he'd understand. And that was all she had wanted lately; understanding. But people would rather throw sticks and stones, and she was learning how to deal with it. She had told no one about her experience with Sylar and had avoided anyone who could potentially read her thoughts or see what had happened.
Claire knocked on Gabriel's door softly, her sigh heavy but her heart racing; she was anxious after his hesitation, but was hoping they could help one another. "It's me," she practically whispered, looking up and down the hallway.
