[M] Unexpected Deadly Romance (Me and NoviDome)

[Sparkz]

Alicia bit her lips and nodded. Julian was on the verge of another mental breakdown. If Tommy hated them for not being able to protect him, then Julian might lose it... Again. "I-I'll call right now. Hopefully get him... And us scheduled."

[NoviDome]

Julian nodded, running a hand through his hair. He wanted to go to Tommy but he didn't think it would be a good idea.

Alicia leaned against the wall with her head in her hands. "How's Lily handling this?"

[NoviDome]

"Not great," he said softly. "She's in the kitchen with a glass of lemonade to calm her down, I told her I'd be back in a second when I heard Tommy yelling..."

[Sparkz]

Alicia sank to the ground and sobbed. "Fuck... Fuck fuck fuck... I don't want Tommy to hate us and for Lily to resent us..."

[NoviDome]

Julian knelt down with her and grabbed her shoulders, stroking them. "Hey... hey. Lily doesn't resent us. Tommy probably doesn't hate us, he just wanted to be alone. We're panicking. Okay? We need to... We need to calm down."

[Sparkz]

She looked up into his eyes and nodded. "Y-you're right... We're over reacting... He's just .. he's just processing." She chewed on her lip before pulling Julian into another hug.

[NoviDome]

He took a shaking breath and hugged her back. Everything was coming back, all of his fears and worries and guilt, and he was overwhelmed by it. But they were supposed to be strong now. For Tommy, and for Lily. He closed his eyes, willing himself to stop freaking out.

[Sparkz]

Alicia held him and tried to relax. After a few minutes passed, she calmed down enough to pull away. She stroked Julian's cheek. "I love you. We have to be strong....'

[NoviDome]

He nodded, taking her hands. "I love you too... go call the hospital. I'll stay with Lily."
