Making a face he shook his head "Nope, it was pretty nasty. At least I didn' get hurt though." he said looking down at her hand twisting his lips into a grimace.
His eyes searched her face as she spoke, he had no idea! "Merlin..." he whispered. His arm went around her again that wasn't holding her hand with the ice on it, holding her close as she leaned into him. "I had no idea. I'm so sorry!" Merlin, he couldn't imagine that kind of pain in a family. And for it all to be on Amelia's shoulders? No wonder she was claustrophobic! "At least there's Harper there, te help the healing now." he said softly though he knew it wasn't much but at least it was something.
Looking down at her as she asked if he'd lived in the Grand Canyon. "Yep I sure did." Wrinkling his forehead he thought a bit, "Hmm, jus' short of a year and a half. We moved there in early April and left in October the following year."
"Hopefully she'd be helpful. I mean we would be showing an interest in her subject so that should make her nicer, right?" Amelia said questioningly. Because most teachers were nicer when you were genuinely interested in their subjects. Although some weren't...
"Well no... But you could have gotten sick. Which would be much worse. And it's okay. I really don't remember it or her much. Only the pictures really confirm it you know. But it is good to have him around. He does make things better. It's amazing how much actually. I think babies tend to do that anyway. They just represent life to me," Amelia replied with a shrug, before settling fully into his arms now that he was holding her.
"That is so awesome. So you used to climb it, but wasn't that scary? I mean, what if you fell?" Amelia asked with some concern. Because depending on how high the drop was he could have died. And that would not have been cool. Not at all.
