Seeing her jump he winced slightly. He hadn't meant to scare her. "Are you kidding? If I listened to everything PROFESSIONALS said well...let's just say they aren't always right about things. They deal with what everyone else considers the norm. But every person is different. Instead of dealing with that they just stick with the norm and say you are different."
"I don't know what to say Lexi," he said standing up and stretching. "But I think you should get off those potions. They aren't really helping you."
Lexi shook her head and continued chewing on her nail. "
You will. I know it." Then she let him pull her hand away from her mouth and frowned at him. "
That's not really a habit I had before was it?" she asked as she looked at her mangled looking nail. Geez.
"
Well I never really had a lot of experience with stuff like this. They locked me up and threw away the key last time. I never really had a chance to ask them anything," she said with a hint of bitterness in her voice. Not directed at Ivan, of course... just there.
She watched him get up and stretch and furrowed her brows further. Was their conversation over now? Well then. Standing as well she went in for a hug and sighed. "
Everything will be okay. Somehow. Some way." Pulling back she smiled up at him and nodded her head once and turned to walk away.
