Both sides of the Books

Tai stared down feeling useless. He slowly stood up to leave. wincing deeply as he stood. He slowly finished restacking the books

Cass went back to the couch she was laying on. She closed her eyes and fell into nightmares again. She would toss and turn, sweating and breathing hard.

Tai passed her as he left he sighed softly, laying his coast over her wishing her knew what was wrong with her. He sighed softly knowing in all truth she may be a muggle for all he knew, not that it really mattered. He looked around wandering why she was alone.

Cassidy opens her eyes. She sat up slowly with her eyes in a daze. She was semi-conscious as she stood up, sleep walking.

Tai caught her stopping her from wandering off into the mall; finding it not to be a good idea to have her sleepwalking around the malll. He shook his head silently. Holding her in hopes to stop her from walking off.

She didn't bother to go further, mentally and physically tired for the stress and depression. She fell into sleep once more. Her body lighter than it should.

Tai laid her back down stroaking her hair silently. He took a deep breath watching her as she slept. He was confused by this girl

Cassidy just slept, her chest raised up and down with each breath. Most of her hair was covering her face. She just wanted to be in her room.

Tai brushed the hair out of her face. He sighed softly. he stood up planing to leave.

Cassidy begins to wake up. Her eyes squinted tightly as she was trying to break free of an sleeping spell.

"Don't leave me," she whimpers.

Tai looked at her with a look of confusion. 'Why would she want me here?' he thought to himself. but he sat down beside her looking at her worriedly

Cassidy used her arms to support herself as she sat up. The dark spots under her eyes detect that she suffers from insomnia. She rubs the bruising under her neck.

Tai frowned deeply seeing both of these things. He took a deep breath looking down. He was completly silent.

"I should go," she mumbles standing up. "I'm making you uncomfortable..." Her legs were a little wobbly but she had managed.

Tai reached out steadying her silently. His hands warm, yet callused. His eyes hidden by his haid

She felt relax when she felt his hands on her. All she wanted was to be in his arms, strange as it sounds since she doesn't like when someone touches her. 'Hold me,' she thought hopelessly.

Tai relaxed slightly seeing that she didn't struggle. He pulled her back lightly onto the couch. "Please stay. You're fine" He murmured softly

Cassidy did as he told her. "Okay." she mumbles.

"Are you alright" Tai asked softyl brushing a strand of red hair out of her face. Giving her a tiny smile is green eyes watching

"Yes," she whispers. Her cheeks blushes a bright red with him looking at her.

Tai nodded silently. He turned to look up at the ceiling. Wincing deeply as he shifted his arm slightly.

"Are you hurt?" she mumbles lowly. She pulls her sleeves up and down anxiously revealing old and new scars.

Tai nodded silently. His hand shooting forward to stop her from continuing her pulling of her sleeves "I'm fine" he mumbled

"I wanna go home," she mumbles.

"Why don't you?" Tai asked softly turning to look at her once again. A strand of hair falling in his face. his eyes filled with curiosity
