Xavier's pov
She didn't push me away.
She held on to me like her life depended on it.
She trusts me.
Someone trust's me. They depend on me.
My grip on her became tighter. I won't let her feel the way i did. I won't let her be abandoned like i was all my life. I hugged her closer to my self as I lifted her off the ground slightly.
She cried harder hiding her face in my chest. How broken is this girl...?
Its getting cold.
I need to calm her down before she gets sick crying so much.
I don't want her to have panic attacks like i did.
I swiftly picked her up in my arms. She was like a tiny broken girl in her father's arms. Face hidden in my chest while arm's hugging me tightly as if I would disappear. He body vibrating incoherently due to the intensity of her crying.
Hope's pov
He just let me hide.
He let me cry.
No questions asked. No explanations given.
I felt myself being swept off the ground in his arms like a little girl. Just like... just like a father would do for his little girl who is in pain.
This made me cry harder.
Why did they give me up...? Was i so unworthy of their love...?
Just then I heard, " shhhhh its ok to cry sometimes.... I'm right here. Cry as much as you want. I got you"
As I felt myself being settled on his lap sideways. My head pressed on his chest as he hugged me tightly, caressing my hair hiding me in him.
His heart beat.
It's soothing.
I cried and cried until mu tears died. Finally I stopped. I don't know how much time had passed but it was evening now from what i can see as the bright room was dark now with dimly lit footlights shining from the stairs and corners.
