It was early in the morning, just before dawn. Paige had woken up in a sweat, and with no one to help her ran outside, by the lake. in her pjs, shorts and a cami, she sat by a forest, trying to stay hidden. She didn't want anyone to find her crying.
Missing her baby girl.
Missing her old friends.
missing, oh for heavens sake.
She missed her fiance. But it had been months since she'd seen him, he'd left. and She tried to forget. She couldn't, of course. It was always there.
But at the moment she was bawling like crazy, missing Melody. she didn't like to talk about her baby girl, who lived with her mother. She couldn't keep her with her, she was simply too young.
On her knees, crying so hard she couldn't breathe, she leaned over the water and saw her reflection.
she hated this.
So very much.
she just needed someone.
hopefully someone she knew,
to calm her down.

Delilah walked by the lake, looking for someone to tourment when she saw a familliar figure hovering on their knees. She walked over to the girl and looked down at her.

"Listen you pansy, get up." She smiled a little more gently when she realized the girl was crying. She sat down, recognizing Paige and pulled her into her arms.

"What's going on with you?"

If anyone came by and saw Delilah being so nice, she'd have to kill the girl, but for now it was safe to be gentle.

Paige couldn't stop crying. She just couldn't.
"Everything. Just everything. Cole's been gone. I haven't been able to see my daughter. I've lost everyone." She hid her face in her hands. Delilah was one of her favorite people.

Delilah patted the sort-of friend on the top of the head. She still wasn't used to being nice to people but this was a start.

She finally stopped, and heavy breathing began. She felt weak and tired now. her face was completely tear stained and ached. It was awkward, with Delilah, her being Cole's cousin and all. She used to hate Delilah, for no apparent reason at all, but Delilah got nice. She actually, when not around other people, was pretty sweet.
