Leigh stood in the hallway at school as Tom walked over to her and smiled
"you have been avoiding me I thought that we could talk" he said as she looked to him and nodded, she followed him to his classroom and sighed
"I know what you asked me Tom, about moving in and I do want to. I do but with all that's happened I am so scared and I don't know what to think" she said as Tom looked to her and smiled. Tom could see how scared she was and he knew that it was all getting to her
"I love you Leigh and I am not going to rush you into anything not when you aren't ready, I just want you to know I am here and I will support you no matter what you want to do. I am here and it will be okay" Tom said as he pulled her close and hugged her, she hugged him back and smiled as he held her close
"I just need time that's all" she said as he smiled. He knew how hard that things were for her and he knew that he wanted to be there and support her
"take as much time as you want, I'm here no matter how long it takes" Tom said as Leigh looked to him and smiled

Leigh sat in the common room and smiled as max walked in and looked to her
"I thought that we could talk I know how tense things have been but I am your brother. I'm sorry for what you went through, when mum and dad died I promised I would protect you and look after you I had no idea he'd do that nevertheless to you" max said as Leigh smiled
"it's not your fault max, I don't blame you" Leigh said as max smiled
"then maybe you can come home, your my sister and I miss you" max said as Leigh looked to him and sighed
"I can't. I'm not going to come home I'm sorry it's just too much. It doesn't change anything with us, your still my brother and I love you and I won't let it effect us but I just can't I hope that you can understand that" Leigh said as max looked to her and smiled,
he knew he was disappointed but he knew what Leigh was going through and he knew how he just wanted her to be okay after all that had happened
max knew that the last thing he wanted was to loose his relationship with his sister

"I have been looking for you, are you okay" grace asked as Leigh looked to her and smiled
"I guess so things are just a mess that's all with everything and I don't know what to do" she said as grace wrapped an arm around her and pulled her into a hug and smiled
"I know it's hard but you need to be happy no matter what it takes be happy that's all I want for you" grace said as Leigh looked to her and smiled but would it be that easy?
