Something Different

part 126

A couple days later after lots of questioning and statements they are allowed to go home.

They get escorted back home. Once home they get hugs from everyone.

Nick: Are you okay?
Emily: I don't wanna live here anymore. I can't keep doing this.
Ace: Florida?
Tayler: Nashville?
Emily: I'll think about it.
Kayden: Alabama?
Lane: Give her some space.

Everyone eats and Emily falls asleep sitting between Ace and Kristian.

Nick: How does he do that?
Thomas: Kristian has the Magic touch when it comes to her.
Tayler: So do you.
Thomas: Yeah but when it comes to Ace and Kristian it's different.

Chreesh and the guys hang outside in the back with Tyler.

Rocky: She's been up those knuckle heads asses since she's gotten back.
Tyler: You want Emily to feel safe and comfortable bringing in Ace and Kristian. Those 2 can get her to sleep in minutes.
Kayden: She has a lot of people here for her.
Lane: She's Emily though.
Jaydan: She makes you feel better when she isn't okay herself.
Chreesh: She's the sun that doesn't deserve all this rain and darkness.
Kayden: She has came a long way.
Tyler: She's a tough one.

Back inside.

Chase: She seems so peaceful when she's sleeping.
Jaden: Only with few people.
Tayler: Has she told you anything?
Blake: No. I don't know what happened.
Thomas: She'll tell somebody when she's ready.
Nick: Just give her time.
Blake: It's been like 5 days.
Thomas: Blake she'll open up when she's ready. That's just Emily.
Josh: Don't force her.
Jaden: It won't end well.

Ryland walks over and chase and him leave.

Quintin: Jaden.
Jaden: Hey man.
Quintin: Is everything over for good this time?
Jaden: He called himself in.

Kristian and Ace move Emily and start walking upstairs.

Thomas: You guys stay with her. Don't leave her.
Kristian: I'm not stupid. I'm the only one that can keep her sleeping when I pick her up.

They go upstairs for the night.

Nick: I don't like that.
Tayler: Trust me she's safe with them.
Nick: She has to many guys.
Tayler: Do not. I repeat do not saying anything.
Thomas: Keep it to yourself cause that group of guys will go feral for her.
Josh: You'll get your ass best by Emily.
Jaden: I don't think I have.
Blake: Uh you almost did.
Quintin: He probably almost did.
Tayler: I don't wanna think of what Nick was gonna say okay.
Thomas: Neither do I. I know more than all of you. It's not good.

Upstairs with them. Kristian lays Emily down and Ace sits next to her.

Ace: She's just so peaceful.
Kristian: Yeah she's been through so much.

After everyone leaves. About half way through the night Emily wakes up and cuddles up next to Ace. He lightly stirs awake. And sits up.

Ace: Em?
Emily: Shh.

Emily sits up with him and Kristian lays his head down on her lap.

Ace: Why are you up?
Emily: I always sleep.
Kristian: mmm
Emily: Can we go to the beach?
Kristian: You guys can. I'm sleeping.

Emily rolls Kristian over and pecks his lips. Ace lightly laughs.

Emily: What was that?
Kristian: We're going to the beach.
