Edmund rested his chin on her head gently and just let her cry it out.
As she stood there crying in Edmund's arms, she became very aware of how... public all of this had been, and how public it still was. Amelia. She was BOUND to hear. Someone had to tell her. It was Sutton's fault, she had to find her first... before anyone else told her. "Edmund, Ed, let me go! I have to leave! I have to find Amelia and tell her and apologize and say it's all my fault before someone else tells her and she breaks up with him," she quickly blurted as she tried to tug free of Edmund's arms, feeling very frantic to set everything right again.
She didn't want people to be mad. She didn't want them to cry.
