Who: Emily & Ollie What: Comforting When: Wednesday, April 9th, afternoon Where: Emily’s dorm room Rating: TBD While visiting Trent Emily held in her feelings and didn’t let the smile waver from her face. She expressed that she was thankful he’d get better and didn’t push when he tried to make light of what happened. He’d tell someone when he was ready. She had held his hand and kissed his forehead when she left.
There was silence on the walk back to Sphinx house. All Emily did was take Ollie’s hand and drag him to her room. That was when the floodgates opened. Her smile fell and all the emotions, fear and worry, that she had been holding in spilled out in wave after wave of tears. She knew rain would soon start to fall outside, but frankly that was the least of her worries. She wrapped her arms around Ollie’s waist as she bunched her fists up in the back of his shirt as she blubbered,
“Ollie…he looked so pale…what if…what if he never gets better? What if he never is the same again?”
