RUN

"Y/N!" Emma yells as you fall to your knees. your legs still burning for all the running. You place your hands on the ground as you try and catch your breath. Not only from running but from all the things that just happened......

"Conny....Oh god Conny...." You choke out as you feel hot tears forming in your eyes and roll down your cheeks. You sit back on the ground and look up at the sky with your eyes closed as you listen to Emma talking out of breath to your right and Norman trying to catch his breath from the run, his hands on his knees.

"Demons are imaginary creatures.......And everyone found foster homes..." She takes a couple of deep breathes before she continues....

"Mom is the usual, gentle mom right?"

'Mom....she was there....she must have known.....dear god'

"That girl....in the back of the truck.....wasn't Conny...was it?" Emma asks as her voice breaks every so often.....

I finally open my eyes and look over at Norman as tears still feel down your face.

He looks back at me with sadden look on his face. He hated to sound of Emma asking him to make her believe that everything that just happened didn't happen and it didn't help anymore when Y/n finally looked at him. She looks so hurt, lost, and hopeless

"Please....Please tell me that wasn't Conny....please" Y/n begged. Her last please was so broken it broke Normans heart.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH" Emma screams her heart out. All her emotions. Everything comes out in one breath......

I just looked at Norman as more and more tears feel down my face. "No...." You crocked out as I started to sob. 

" Tell me it was all fake please! Norman please I am begging you! Tell me that wasn't Conny" You sobbed as your voice was breaking with every word that fell from your mouth.

Norman walked over and hugged both you and Emma. 

You placed your head in the crock of Normans neck and sobbed until your hearts content. He didn't mind. He caressed your hair while the other one was hugging on to the sobbing Emma. You knew he was crying as well as you felt tears on your shirt from where his head is placed.

"Welcome back" Rays voice cut through the silence that had formed over the three of you

"How did it go?" He asks as he sees that no one answered him the first time.

He looked from Emma that didn't even lift her head up to look at the raven haired boy in front of them. To lost in thought.

Then he looked to Y/N who was holding onto Normans hand for dear life. At least she looked at him along with Norman.

As Ray saw that no one answered him again he made a face that encouraged them to answer

"We didn't make it." Norman says sense no one else was. God you hated the way he sounded. He sounded to empty that it sent a ping of sadness through you. you felt him tug you and Emma to go upstaries with him. 

You look back at Ray and see a sad look on his face. 

"Night...Ray.." You say ever so softly your throat hurting slightly from all the crying and screaming

"Goodnight....Y/n..." He reply's but he sound like he is in another world, like he is rethinking something...but what....
