Feeling Eric's arm tighten around her slightly Stacy didn't mind. The shelter he was offering, the comfort and kindness was accepted well and Stacy's fingers tightening around his hand slightly was a silent was of saying it was ok.
Hearing his words and confirmation that everything would be ok and that there was no way Rich could take Ashlee was refreshing. She new that it would imposable for him to take her but just hearing it from someone else other than herself was an extra but that Stacy needed.
As Eric whips the tear from her cheek and rests his hand on her face Stacy bends a little bit to rest it even more. The feel of his skin was rough but it was a working man's hand and to her it felt nice and we welcomed the warmth it offered. The strange butterfly's that fluttered in her stomach did not go unnoticed but not attachen was drawn to them.
"It's been a long time since I trusted anymore but hearing you say that...without a shadow of a doubt I believe you!"
Giving a little smile Stacy really meant what she has said. Eric's words comforted her and she really did trust him when he said everything was ok. Why She didn't know but there was just something about hi that Stacy just seemed to be drawn to.
"I haven't told Ashlee that Rich called and I don't plan on it. I think he would only confuse and upset her. So can you just...keep this conversation between us?"
Hearing Leo call her Ryan looks up from her work bench giving a smile. Seeing the look on Leo's face though she new something was wrong. Before he said anything next a million and one things went through her mind on what it might be. Her heart starting to thump a feeling of dread overcoming her.
As Leo tells her that Tal had been hurt Ryan can feel a lump form in her throat at the look of fear pass over her eyes. How had he been hurt? What happened? It was so bad he had to be at the hospetil? Did it happen at work? Was it Alec again? A million and one questions ran through Ryan's mind.
Standing she wastes no time at at all standing and throwing her rage on the work bench and grabbing her jacket. She new she was in the middle of a car but she didn't care. The car could wait this could not. without saying anything else Ryan was out the door and on the way to meet Eli.
...It didn't take long and Ryan was coming through the Er doors. Seeing her brother she just about sprints over to him laying a hand on his shoulder. The last time she'd been or felt like this with her brother was when they were waiting for word on how there father was doing.
