Subject: Inside
In reply to: Skeeter 's message, "inside" on 11.05

(She froze as she listened to him, anger welling inside her at his words. She had known that Skeeter was the sort of man to lay it all out straight, but she hadn't thought him capable of hurting her like this. She sat up, looking over at him with daggers for eyes.) You jackass. How dare you.. (She shook her head, glaring at him.. he had just insulted her brother, insulted her and pretty much insulted Braden for having feelings for her.. the only people who had gotten off insult-free had been himself and Gia. Before she had even thought about it, the glass on her nightstand had smashed on the wall beside him.) Take your self-righteous fucking attitude and leave me alone. (She growled out, tears streaking down her face. She couldn't believe this.. the one person she thought would understand how she felt.. had just gone and made her feel rediculous and insulted her brother to boot.) And tell Gia that I think she deserves an award for putting up with you. (She said insolently, shifted up further on the bed to lean on the headboard, her knees drawn up and then laid her head down, looking at the opposite wall, sobs wracking her body.) (She hadn't meant to do so, but had ventured down the hallway a few moments after he had disappeared to go talk to Reese. She'd listened in on most of the coversation and was going to let Skeeter handle it.. but then the glass came flying across the room. She winced.. Reese was at an age where she was at times a woman and at times a girl.. and he was trying to handle her like a woman when she needed a mother. She made a psst sound and motioned to him to come out of there, lest get get brained with something heaver than a glass. She had a sad expression on her face as she laid her hand on his arm and whispered to him, trying to keep quiet in the hall.) She's tired and hurting, Skeeter.. she just needs someone to let her cry. (She said, still unbelievably understanding after Reese had been rude to her. She remembered being a young woman, knew what it was like to be mixed up emotionally.) We can't lecture her now.. she needs a little coddling to get back on her feet. (She pursed her lips a little.) This is the first time any of you have gone on a mission since she arrived, she has no idea what Braden is capable of out there, so how is she supposed to know to trust him to come back.. you know what to expect of them, so it's easier for you.. please.. just go in there and apologize and give her a hug.. just let her be upset and don't ask anything of her.. (She knew that she could go in there and talk to Reese and calm her down.. but more than that she wanted Reese and Skeeter to be back on good terms again.)
