Heritage *Started but OPEN*

I nodded and headed for the kittchen, I grabbed a clean cloth from a drawer and soaked it

I smiled lsightly, "Anytime" I whispered back

i nodded and gave him an awkward hug.

'put her on the sofa.' i said indicating to one. 'i'm going to give it a thourough check.' it was a shame we didnt have any healers around as this was going to take a while to fix.

I set her down on the sofa

I came back with a huge bowl of cold water and several cloths, it was always easier to use more then one on a severa injury

i grabbed ben's arm, with my good hand, as he set me down.
'stay here?' i asked.

'thanks lilith that's great. someone hold her cos this will hurt.' i dipped the cloth into the water and took her arm before pressing it on top.

I sat and held her shoulders against the sofa, she'd probably hate me for it but I couldn't have her hitting Adrian or Lillith in pain

I smiled and held Rana down with Ben

'your lucky it's only second degree, we'll need some ointments but i have those, for now it'll be these cold damp clothes, i'll get you some painkillers too.' i said as she winced and struggled to pull her arm free.

i screwed up my eyes, knowing they were trying to help but the pain was immense i just wanted to curl up.

I hheld her against the sofa, I looked at Adrian waiting for him to tell me to let her go

I watched Ben

i wrapped it around her arm and let her go.
'it'll take about three weeks to heal.'

i pulled my arm back with a sob. it still hurt.

I let go of her stepping back

I let her go but stayed seated with her

'lilith do you want to come with me while i get some painkillers and ointment?' i asked heading out of the room.

my whole body was shaking and i could feel the sting of the cold damp cloth on my arm.

I looked over at him, "Um..sure" I said, leaving the room to leave them alone

I looked at her, taking her good hand, "you'll be fine" I whispered

i gave her a smile.
'let them have some time alone,' i said once we were in the hall.

i gave him a shaky kind of smile.
'it was horrible, i've never been so angry and scared in all my life.' i blinked back more tears.

I nodded leaning against a wall

"how are you feeling now?" I asked

'come on lets get that cream from my room,' i said. 'better for us to stick close together.'

'shaky,' i admitted still shivering. 'i feel a bit dizzy too.'

I smiled, "How close together" I laughed stepping closer to him

I sighed, "Just rest"

i laughed.
'as close as you feel you need to be,' i said.

'you wont leave will you?' i said clutching his hand and looking up with fever bright eyes.

I smiled slipping my hand in his, "This should be enougth" I said, "If you feel scarred don't be afraid to get closer"

"I won't" i said, "Promise"

'me scared?' i laughed. 'well only if i see a spider,' i grinned.

'good,' i said my eyelids fluttering as i tried to keep conciousness. 'i d-dont wan 'im come back.' i slurred. i felt like i was falling into darkness.

I laughed

I sat with her

we reached my room.
'it's a bit messy.' i warned, it was also larger than the others which meant that i had piles of cds on my desks not put away and my clean washing was still folded on top of my bed. i hadnt done that yet.

'was 'appening?' i tried to ask my mouth tripping on the words as my vision blurred.

I smiled, "Don't worry" I said

I held her hand, "You're ok"

i let her in and began to absently sort my cds back into aplhabetical order.

i tried to shake my head. my eyes rolled up as i lost conciousness.

I smiled watching him

I looked at her not knowing what to do

I nodded
