"Right sweetie we need to get you back to my house so you can rest up and have a shower because I can barely see what you actually look like underneath all that dirt. What do you think about that? You can have something to eat after you shower." Theo gently helped my stand but after I started to sway and fall he picked me up and held my bridal style to prevent me from falling on my face. I looked around to see Tristan grab my medicine and the jelly before picking up the glass of water he had dropped and placing the empty glass on the table whistling Zara to follow after us as we exited the infirmary."So bailey have you got anyone waiting for you to come back or are you by yourself?" Tristan's voice made me shiver as he stared intently at me before turning his head to look at some people passing by."I-I’m by myself." I heaved out a breath as my vision blurred " the last group I was with um they uh died like a few days ago well I think they died. I was on a suppl

"Are you ok?" Tristan’s voice jarred me out of my awkward fiddling and caused me to jump, I looked up at him to him softly smiling at me reassuring me that everything was fine and he wasn’t going to harm me."I'm sorry I didn't mean to scare you, you just seemed really out of place." he knelt down in front of me and took my hands that were pinching each other. he rubbed the little crescent marks left behind."You don't need to be afraid anymore, I know that we are all complete strangers to you but trust me when I say I will not allow anyone to harm you. I promise you bailey." he gently squeezed my injured hands and smiled up at me before getting back to his feet just as Theo walked in with a towel in hand."oh perfect Tristan has already warmed up the water for you." he turned to Tristan before making a shooing motion with his hands and turning around to face me. Tristan shook his head and smiled at me before walking out of the bathroom and gently cl

A gentle nudge under my chin bought my attention back to Tristan standing in front of me his eyes shone with concern for me.“I’m sorry.” It came out as barely a whisper but I knew he had heard me because his lips turned down the slightest before he smoothed out the frown and replaced it with a gentle smile. Is that what she meant when she said they hide the way they felt about me?“Don’t say sorry you’ve been through a lot in the past day, how about we go get some food and then you can go lay down in the spare bedroom?” he spoke cautiously like he didn’t want to overwhelm me, they are so kind to me. I’m scared of what they are going to want in return of all this kindness, what are they going to make me do to pay back the burden I’ve placed on them by being here?“Ok.” I looked back up him and sighed, I can’t let these thoughts ruin the right now I can’t let them see how weak I&r

“Bailey?” Theo gently questioned the concern made me feel a bit of guilt for the way I ran out of the room but there we go again her making me unable to trust myself and those around me, I have no one but myself to blame. It’s always been all my fault.“Bailey, are you ok? You scared me I’m not sure what’s wrong but its ok if you just wanted to rest, I’ve out clean sheets and a clean blanket on the bed so you can have a lay down. It’s getting late so I’m going to go to bed and Tristan is going to sleep on the couch if you need anything just yell out ok hunny?” his voice was unsure and sounded a little bit hurt as I backed away from the desk, I didn’t bother to reply not wanting my voice to give away how guilty I was feeling and how weak I was for running away like that.I heard Theo sigh through the door before his foot steps faded leaving me to my own devices, I feel horrible for making him feel like he
