(She bit her lip as she sat through the pregnant pause that seemed to hang over the room, laden with an overwhelmind assort of emotions, all of which were knocking at her as though she were a stone and they were chisels. The way he sort of moved over to be in her space as though knowing that she needed support was what had her looking up at him. Her doe-like eyes were just as soft as his murmured words and her heart turned over at the sincerity and truth in them. Something about his tone and his gaze told her that he was telling the truth, and knowing that she would never again be alone had more tears slipping down her cheeks. She wanted to reach for him, seek out his comfort, but she didn't feel right doing so, not when he looked just as pained as she felt. She had no way of knowing that they both needed to grieve, no way of knowing what he had experienced, and as she lowered her head to hide her tears she had no idea that she was breaking his heart. Suddenly she wished she was home, so she could do as she used to do when the grief hit.. run upstairs to Keegan's room and throw herself into his bed, curling into his covers and letting his scent envelope her, promising her that she wasn't as alone as she felt.) He left me. (She didn't realize she had murmured the words, thick with pain, but it was true.. they had all left her. Her mother, her father and her brother. All of them had left her, died long before their times, and here she was, picking up the pieces when she should be doing nothing more stressful than picking out the prom dress she would wear in a year.)
