The girl tried to stifle her weeping a bit as she tried to calm down with little avail. It all had hurt so much. She nearly jumped as she felt his hand gently resting against her back as he tried to calm her. He did like her, she just couldn't see it but how was she supposed to know? He gave no indication and they hadn't talked until now. Even then it wasn't under the best of circumstances. Lia wiped away at the red stained tears that marked her face as she finally calmed down a bit. "I need you to communicate with me. Show something, anything that could hint that it's okay with us," she softly murmured as she sat back up; rubbing the last of the tears away.
"I can't tell what you're thinking. This is the first time we talked about what happened and I honestly thought you didn't care past what happened..." She thought him indifferent. She needed small emotional queues to emphasis that they were okay. Even his touch on her back calmed her a bit and assured her he cared. That was all she needed. Lia looked up to him. She felt like an idiot for not realizing this earlier.
The girl turned a bit to nuzzle into his side. He said he didn't cuddle, but she needed it right now. Even if he just sat there, she'd take what she could get. "I'm sorry... for everything..."
