Helena did appreciate the truth, and while it did hurt, it wasn't something she hadn't been aware of. She knew it would hurt, most things regarding Christina still hurt her so deeply. One hundred and twenty years on and that knife still cut her deeply.

"I am glad for that. I want you here with me. There is no other way that I could get through it." Which was the truth. Without Myka, Helena knew she wouldn't be able to deal with it and she would lose herself all over again. "Whatever may come, whether it's related to Christina or not, I need and want you here by my side." She knew Myka would push her when she needed it, and if she was confronted by Christina, she would undoubtedly try to close up on herself to keep the pain to as much of a minimum as possible. Helena needed someone like Myka that knew when to push her. It was one of the many reasons they worked so well together, they knew when to push the other and when not to.

Myka pulled Helena into a hug and simply held her. She knew it wasn’t much, and the anticipation of waiting to find out if the ordeal to come would involve facing Christina, again, was getting to Helena. Myka couldn’t take away the pain that always accompanied Christina, but she could help Helena see that she wasn’t alone this time.

“I love you, okay?” She rubbed Helena’s back. “We’re going to get through this.”

Wrapping her arms around Myka tightly, Helena leaned into the embrace. While a hug may not be much in the grand scheme of things, it meant the world to Helena. She found great comfort in the embrace and in knowing Myka was there for her. It certainly helped to have these physical reminders at times, reminders that she wasn't alone anymore.

"I love you," Helena responded before she closed her eyes and buried her face in Myka's neck. It was something that she didn't typically do, but she wanted the comfort, the grounding that Myka's presence and scent gave to her. It was also silent acknowledgement that they would get through this together, come what may. Alone, Helena knew she couldn't withstand whatever was coming, but with Myka by her side, she could.
