[sup][b]Interacting With:[/b] Gage Brooks ([@BlackPanther]), Cassandra Arvanitis ([@Caits]), Miranda Burke ([@Damo021]), Sebastian Monroe ([@December]), and Xerxes Arvanitis ([@YoshiSkittlez]).[/sup][/color][/center] [hr][hr] [color=Lavender]“You should get some rest. I promise I'll still be here when you wake up again.”[/color] She didn’t want to go back to sleep… sleep was where the nightmares began. The screams of all her friends… the horrid stench of copper everywhere… the pain ripping through her body- she just couldn’t do it. A flash of panic flickering over the surface of her eyes, Syleste shook her head back and forth in answer to his suggestion, her fingers curling over slightly as she tightened her grip over his hand just that little bit more. He was worried about her; and it was that very thought that had a gentle warmth spreading through her very being. There was something about his being there that made her feel safe… that helped her to feel calm and relaxed… to feel loved beyond anything else. She had always been led to believe that a father or brother was the one who was meant to do that; but it had been made more than clear to her that ever since they met, Gage was the one who kept all her fears a bey… the one who kept the monsters from coming after her... unfortunately though she had the feeling that not even he could help stop the nightmare from coming back to her once she closed her eyes. [color=DarkOrange]“Alright, you two. How are we doing?”[/color] Her attention torn away from her boyfriend the moment a new voice filled the room, Syleste let her ever unseeing gaze turn over in the direction she could hear it coming from. For the longest of times now, Xerxes had been her doctor- one of the few people that her mother had come to trust with her health and disability. It was most likely due to that fact that her mother hadn’t come barging into the hospital in a mess of anger and panic… [color=DarkOrange]“Syleste, I'd like to check your stitches first along with a few other things. Gage... would you mind?”[/color] Hesitation clear in her features, Syleste nodded her head lightly up and down in response, reluctantly loosening her grip over his hand before eventually, she let go altogether, allowing him to move back so that Xerxes would be able to look her over like he needed to. They both just wanted what was best for her… she wasn’t about to stand in their way if what they did was going to help...
