Part 1

Terrwyn's POV

"So, what you're saying, is that Mary isn't my mom and I'm actually the princess of a place called Rhona, a place that doesn't exist in this dimension?" Ellie asked scoffing. She seemed to be taking it exceptionally well, I was surprised. Angus nodded slowly and gave me a sideways glance, I just shrugged and concentrated my attention back on Ellie.

Something was wrong. I could tell her heart beat had increased and she was visibly shaking uncontrollably. I rushed over to her as she started hyperventilating, not being able to catch her breath. She reached for her throat and tears rushed down her eyes quickly. She was having a panic attack. I sat her down on the couch and crouched in front of her, trying to get her attention. "Ellie, look at me, hey, look, I'm here, take deep breaths, like this," I took a deep breath in and held it for 5 seconds and then I slowly let it out. "You try, you can do it." She took a short ragged breath and then slowly blew out. "Good, try again, and I want you to name 5 things you can see in this room, can you do that for me?" She nodded and looked around the room while still trying to steady her breath. "...Angus, fireplace,... door-" she took another breath, this time calmer and then continued, "tv, and -" she looked directly at me, finally able to breathe easier and smiled, "you." I kissed her forehead and held her a moment. "Good job, Ellie, you did good."

Part 2

Angus's POV

Ellie had went to go take a nap and Terrwyn helped me unpack my things. "I really want to thank you for coming so soon, we need to figure out what we're going to do." I could see she was concerned with Ellie's well being, which made me slightly smirk. "What are you smirking for?" She asked kind of annoyed. "Nothin' just cute that you are taking a liking to her." She smiled and shook her head, "My mother took her away from the only person she knew, not once, but twice, I feel inclined to help, besides which, she's the princess of Rhona, it's my duty to protect the royal family, nothing else Angus." I sighed and stopped unpacking and looked at Terrwyn. "I've known you a long time Terra, you and I both know you most certainly do NOT like guys. I see the way you look at Ellie, you care for her, not because you feel inclined, but because you've developed a crush." She rolled her eyes and smiled, "Maybe I have."
