Keelin came running up the stairs to the aid of her distressed wife."Whats wrong" Keelin asks out of breath.

" I feel like I'm going to be sick." Freya leans back and forth trying to stable her body and mind. Keelin runs over to catch her wife and carry her to the bathroom.

"Freya you're shivering" Keelin carries her wife to the bathroom.

"I can't breathe" Freya chokes out.

"Hey its ok" Keelin turns Freya on her side and puts preassure on her wife's chest the way she liked when she was nervous.

"Its just happening over and over again." She chokes out.

"Whats happening over and over again" Keelin applies more pressure to Freya's shaking body.

"It's just happening over and over."Freya starts crying again.

"Are you thinking about your attempt?" Keelin asks.

Freya doesn't answer but leans back on her wife.

"Babe, please talk to me" Keelin whispers.

"Its just terrifying to think about what was going through her mind and it just makes me think about when I tried.." Her voice trembles. " I cant stop thinking about how her blood was just everywhere. She has always healed quick. I've never seen her not heal in less than minutes but she just bled out. I didn't know what to do so I just grabbed her and ran. I was terrified she'd just die right there. It was just so terrifying." She shakes. " I just can't stop thinking about it and I just want to lay down all day."

Keelin rubs her wife's shoulder "Well I can st ay in bed with you all day."

"It's Christmas day go spend it with our son I'll be okay I promise"Freya climbs off the floor and crawls into bed.

"Are you sure" Keelin looks at her wife.

"Yes go on." Freya shoos her. "I'll call if I need something"

For days after this she tried to pretend like she was still ok. She tried to pretend like this all wasn't effecting her at all,but it just got to her. Each day you could see her soul just breakdown a bit more. Until she eventually got back to the worse state she was back

"Freya how are you doing today." Keelin tries to pretend her wifes condition wasn't worsening.

Freya just nods ever so slightly.

"Do you think you can go for a walk today." Keelin asks.

"I feel like I can barely move" Freya croaks out. " I can try"

"Don't push yourself." Keelin helps Freya out of bed and the start their walk around the compound.

Freya hated these walks around the compound they reminded her of a parade, a parade in which her poor mental health was displayed. She could feel everyones focus on her and it was depressing.

Almost everyday they both completed this ritual along with another one where she tried to play with Nik for an hour but she always was just absolutely winded before the time ran out. Everyone noticed this change and it was extremely concerning to say the least.

"Freya I think you need to see someone" Kol after months of internally wrestling with this speaks up. "You've just kept bouncing back to the bottom when we finally think you're getting better."

Freya looks up at him from her bed "like who last time I checked most therapists arent equipt to deal with a,1,000 year old witch."

"I've been asking around.." Kol empties his jean pockets out into his hands.

"Goddamn it kol" Freya covers her head with a pillow.

"There's a vampire she's gotten her degree numerous times in the past few centuries because she's so dedicated to the practice." Kol finds the information he scribbled on a bright peach post-it.

Freya groans.

"Please Freya you're my sister and I'm scared we're loosing you," he almost pleads

"Fine" she groans again.

"I'll schedule something" Kol runs off.
