Ella hesitated when she walked up to her bedroom. For a second, she just stared at the open door looking at her red bag. She was still confused as to why Molly had posted a parcel at Lyra's address, knowing for a fact, that she was originally going home.

Sighing, Ella went towards her bag and unzipped it. She took out many of her clothes and quickly decided on changing. She found a white shirt and a pair of red chinos before taking of Jude's 'Sherlock' hoodie and quickly put on the white shirt. She then took of her shoes and sweatpants and grabbed her red trousers, before putting them on. She wanted to be comfortable to whatever lay ahead of her.

Grabbing her chestnut hair, she twisted it a little and with one hand, she rummaged through her bag and found one of her hair bands and quickly set to work to pull her hair up into a messy bun.

Her eyes slowly went back to what she came upstairs for in the first place. Ella was now staring at the parcel, as if it was mocking her. She shook her head thinking that was an absurd thought and picked it up, looking at Molly's handwriting.

For what seemed like a long time, Ella looked at her style of writing. Molly had always been good at calligraphy and seeing certain words that Molly had taken time to write, made her realise, that she would never see Molly again.

She was brought back from her thoughts, by a gentle tapping on the door. Ella turned around and saw Ben, leaning on the door frame, with worry etched on his face.

"We were getting worried, are you alright?"

Holding the parcel tightly across her chest, she nodded.

"I'm bearing up." She reassured him, noticing him frown at her.

"Your such a liar." Ben replied.

"I'm fine," Ella sighed "I just wanted to change out of the clothes I was given."

Ben stepped inside the room and walked up to her, wrapping his arms around her and holding her tight. He looked down at her and gently kissed her forehead.

"Your not fine, your head is all over the place."

Ella looked up at him with a frown.

"This parcel is not helping matters either. Perhaps we should do this another time?"

"No!" Ella shook her head, making sure the parcel wasn't battered from Ben's power hug "I want to get this over with. This is from Molly and this could be important."

"Are you quite sure?"

"Yes or it will only plague me."

Ben watched her, as she was watching the package in her hand. He gently took hold of her hand and pulled her towards the landing.

"I've made a fresh pot of tea if you fancy some." said Ben, as they walked downstairs.

Ella snorted.

"What is it with you and tea?"

Ben turned slightly when he reached the bottom step and gave Ella a bemused look.

"What's wrong with drinking tea?"

"Well nothing, except you always drink it." Ella replied as she stepped down from another step.

"I prefer tea," grinned Ben, tugging Ella a little "now come on, Tom's in the living room."

Holding the parcel in her right hand, Ella followed Ben towards the living room. Tom stood up from where he was sitting when he spotted Ella, a smile played on his lips. She had changed her clothes and to be perfectly honest with him, she looked much better wearing her own clothes then what her friend Jude had lent her.
