[color=LightCoral]“One sec, Syl…”[/color]
 
At the ring of a familiar voice sounding so closely to her, Syleste turned her head over the pillow, her soft pink lips parting ever so slightly from one another as she allowed her beautiful, nevertheless ever unseeing eyes to lift up in the direction that she that could hear her friend’s voice coming from… feel the warmth of her touch coming from. Cassandra was a good friend… one who always brought to her comfort when she was in need of it most; but there was something behind her gentle tone, something that seemed… worried..? Frustrated..? Or was it anger..?
 
Did that mean..? W-Was something wrong..?
 
Panic once more flickering across her features, her breathing once again began to pick up; her chest heaving lightly up and down with each breath that she took as her right hand met the mattress for the second time since she had woken up, her face scrunching up in pain as she pushed down against it, trying again to lift herself into a sitting position, though seeming to give up as the ache she had been fighting against began to dull… slowly disappearing from her body, and allowing her to relax back over the bed. Whatever it was that Cassandra had done, it had helped her… so much.
 
[color=LightPink]“..thank you…”[/color] Her voice was soft… barely audible as she spoke, though it rang clear as day that she was grateful for her friends help in this moment- she didn’t know what it was that Cassie had been on about when she had asked her to wait, but whatever it was, it had worked a charm. Cassie had always been so sweet… and so kind to her- Cassandra was like the sister she’d never had, and her father like the one she’d never before known in her life. Apart from her mother; the both of them, along with Chewie, were her family… the closest thing she had to family, [color=LightPink]“..i-it doesn’t hurt as much anymore…”[/color]
 
[color=Lavender]“I’m here.”[/color]
 
That’s when she heard it… when she felt it; the sweet sound of his voice, and the warmth of a hand taking a hold of her own. He was here… Gage was right here; by her side, and he was alright- he was safe. And honestly, right now, just knowing that meant more to her than anything else in this world. Her head turning in the direction she could feel his loving touch coming from… the direction she could feel the warmth of his breath flowing down over her soft skin, Syleste couldn’t help the small smile that played over her lips, her fingers curling gently over his own as she did everything to give him all of her attention.
 
[color=Lavender]“I promise I won’t leave.”[/color]
 
He was promising that he wasn’t going to leave… that he was always going to be there for her when she needed him to be- how could she ever ask for anything more..? Squeezing his hand softly with her own, Syleste nodded her head lightly in response, doing what she could to bring his hand further up so that she could instead hold it in place over her heart, [color=LightPink]“..I know… and I won’t ever leave you either, Gage… I promise…”[/color]
