[hr][b]Interaction Tags:[/b] [@Lady Amalthea] [@Nallore] [/center][hr] Ash was uncharacteristically silent as they walked outside. She eyed Kai carrying Ada like he used to do all those years ago. Something wasn’t sitting right with her about all of this. She could feel something wrong in the back of her mind that she couldn’t quite place. She’d get her answers and then decide if she was just being overly cautious and was just in shock at finding her two closest friends back together as a couple after all this time. Being careful and gentle with Ada, Kai carried her over to her desired resting spot by the benches as instructed. He smiled down to her and kissed the top of her head before he sat her down carefully on the seat. He sat down and let her cuddle up to him, his arm hooking around her shoulders to hold her close to him. He scratched his beard and looked back to the door of the gym hall. A frown formed on his face as he was in thought, right until the moment that Riley hugged him then gave him a gentle punch on the arm and began asking her questions. Ada stepped up first and began answering Riley’s questions. Kai smiled softly as she spoke, a content little look blooming on his face as his eyes drifted closed slightly while listening to her. As he closed his eyes, he saw the angry face of Ada’s spouse that had returned from the dead and his eyes snapped open. He was inside the building in front of them all, probably anxiously awaiting Ada to return inside. He glanced down at his arm around Ada and thought about this man doing the same loving things to her as he was now and his stomach knotted into rage and despair. Ash let her eyes travel from Ada to Kai as Ada answered Riley’s question. She saw Kai’s face and she realised that he was in a state of confusion. She worried for them both, now even more than she had moments before DJ had entered the gym hall shouting to Marc. She placed the shoebox down beside Ada as she began to speak to her, before stepping back and crossing her arms. She was mad at them both and she wasn’t sure why exactly. [color=crimson]“I know that.”[/color] Her short sentence held an unspoken message that both Kai and Ada would know. Ash was not happy with this arrangement. She took a small breath and turned as she saw Marc heading past them on the phone still. She watched Marc as Ada’s attentions turned fully towards Kai for the moment. Marc looked harassed. Very harassed. She let her gaze stay on him longer than she usually would have but she was more curious about him since she had seen him standing up to DJ earlier. She and Marc had always got along well enough after high school and, considering their romantic past, they were on very friendly terms all things considered. She’d have to ask him if he was alright later because she could practically feel the tension in his shoulders. Not that she expected him to open up, but she might as well offer her ear if he needed one to nip. His eyes wandered down to Ada as she looked up to him, his hand caressed and gripped hers tightly as she slipped her fingers between his and his smile widened as she caressed his cheek. He rose his hand up with hers within it and kissed the back of her hand before resting it down on his thigh again. [color=cc5200]“I believe you didn’t know. You’re not one to go back on your word, I know that,”[/color] He took a deep, calming breath before he could speak his next words. He really wanted to smoke some MayJane but knew that Ada would kill him for even thinking it. [color=cc5200]“and that is exactly why you need to speak to him. He is your husband and those vows mean something, as does your word. He isn’t dead, that much is clear.”[/color] His empty hand balled up into a fist on his thigh as he spoke. This was harder than he expected. [color=cc5200]“You may never have been in love with him, but he is most definitely in love with you. He deserves some answers and closure, the same way that I owed you some answers and closure for all these years. Don’t put him through what you’ve been through. No one should go through that.”[/color] When he was done, he took a deep breath again and kissed Ada on her temple before hugging her tightly to him. Ash stopped watching Marc when she heard Kai telling Ada to talk to DJ. She hadn’t expected him to do that, she thought he would keep her huddled away all to himself for a while longer at the very least. Ash chewed on her lower lip before she relaxed her stance and walked back over to Ada as the poor woman sat there crying to her and Riley as she sat in the arms of Kai. [color=crimson]“Adsi, you know what you need to do. You don’t need us to tell you.”[/color] She gripped her knee gently and gave it a light squeeze before reaching back over for the shoebox and digging through it to find the bandage that Ada needed for her ankle. [color=crimson]“We’ll get some ice on that from the bar once you’re back inside. DJ isn’t going to hurt you, so don’t freak out on him again, okay?”[/color] She crouched down in her heels and tight, little dress and set to work. Thankfully she was wearing mini shorts beneath the dress to keep her modesty as the night drew onwards. She never knew when the paparazzi would show up to hound her. Kai and Ash both looked to Marc as he walked back over to them and began to speak to them all. [color=crimson]“We’ll come back inside in a sec. Just getting Ada’s ankle wrapped up now.”[/color] She nodded towards the blackened and swollen limb in her hands and gave a tiny smile to Marc before busying herself with the wrapping again. Satisfied that it was tight enough, Ash stood back up and smoothed her dress down. [color=crimson]“Okay, you should be good. We should really go back inside now like Marc asked, but don’t think you two are off the hook so easily.”[/color] Nodding to Ash, Kai gently lifted Ada onto his lap to get a decent grip on her without hurting her. Carrying her like he had before, Kai’s mind drifted to the fact that this carrying arrangement was exactly like carrying a new bride over the threshold. He stopped mid-step before shaking his head and adjusting his grip on his Anela. [color=cc5200]“Oops, stood on a stone.”[/color] He continued on and made his way back to the gym hall doors. He’d be putting Ada down as soon as he physically could once they were inside. He may have wanted to floor Ada’s husband when he was causing her so much distress earlier but he felt awful for the poor man now. Ash ran ahead of them to grab the door; she’d noticed Kai hesitating but didn’t think it the right time to question him. She’d steal him once Ada was busy talking to DJ because come hell or high water, that woman was talking to her newly resurrected husband whether she liked it or not. Gripping the door handle, Ash let Kai carry Ada through but she stopped Riley with a quick hand on her shoulder. [color=crimson]“I know they didn’t give a lot of details or answers out there but let’s try not to question them too much right now. Ada is dealing with a lot right now and Kai seems out of it. Best not to push them too far, y’know?”[/color] She quickly grabbed Riley and gave her a hug. [color=crimson]"It's good to see you. Let's head inside."[/color] Ash let Riley go inside before following her and closing the door behind herself.

She completely understood where he was coming from, she’d been through the loss of a spouse to the heart of another. It was a difficult pain to process and she knew there were many more lashing outs to come. She took a breath and smiled at Lawson as he apologised again. [color=daf05b]“Like I said, you’ve nothing to apologise for. I can understand what you’re going through all too well…”[/color] She looked towards the doors as they closed over and she sighed. Turning as Lawson began to ask her questions, she knew he was just being polite but to help him perhaps keep his mind off of what was going on outside she would oblige him. [color=daf05b]“It’s miss now, formerly married, now divorced. It was a pretty messy end. It’s quite alright if you don’t remember me, Mr Lawson, and thank you for the compliment. I did not attend your wedding unfortunately as I work as a corporate lawyer in NYC so couldn’t get the time off. We’re relatively close but nothing excessive.”[/color] The doors opened to the hall and Jas looked over expecting to see the group returning only to see that Marc was re-entering, she hadn’t actually seen him leaving. That man had become an efficient ninja apparently. She felt bad lying to Lawson who was going through so much so considering her little joke with Ada was pretty much a moot point now, Jas decided to come clean. At least to Lawson. [color=daf05b]“I have to be honest, Mr Lawson. I’m not actually Ada’s cousin, I’m an old friend of hers from this school. We were planning on playing a prank on everyone that used to treat me poorly ten years ago but considering the current situation it seems pretty ridiculous now in hindsight.”[/color] She tucked her hair behind her ears and shrugged her bare shoulders as her fingers smoothed her dress down. [color=daf05b]“I completely understand if you’d like for me to leave you alone. I can even go check and see if Ada is ready to speak with you?”[/color] Just as she was done asking her question, the doors opened and the group re-entered the hall. Jas clasped her hands together in her lap and waited to see what would happen next. [hr]
