I watched the chaos of the firetrucks and police that pulled up. It seemed more than half of the local division was here right now but it was for good reason, Someone tried to kill me and hell if they knew Tink was here her then as well but even I knew no one knew about her really plus you couldn’t kill someone like them that easy. Me though? Well I was still human in a sense, I was a writer that was the only immortality that came out of this but apart from that I was human. I could die easily, I was as fragile as the rest were.
I could’ve gave a s**t less at that time too about my home, it was destroyed that was pretty clear and I wasn’t going to be staying there anytime soon but Tink, she could’ve gotten hurt a lot worse than she did. If she had? I couldn’t think about it, what had happened already had me grinding my teeth together trying to keep from screaming at these idiots to figure out who the f**k did this to me.
Izzy was talking to some of the officers and directing others where to go but Tink was still sitting here almost spacing out. I couldn’t tell what was on her mind but whatever it was it was making her look beyond stressed out. Slowly I moved my hand towards hers and wrapped my fingers around it, giving it a squeeze. Words weren’t something me and her could really use right then, neither of us knew what to say or do and I was more than sure we both were suffering from a version of shock but we were still here.
Thanks to her, I was still here.
I had a lot I owed to her just because of that but there wasn’t a whole lot I could say on the topic just yet. Looking over the others I just stayed put and dared someone to say something about us right then and there. Turning I gave her face a once over making sure she didn’t have any bad burns there… Her hair was something I was more than sure she wasn’t going to be too happy about. It hadn’t burned it off but there was a good bit singed off and then well the side of her head had the worst damage but I knew she’d figure that out on her own without me saying something.
I blocked her view of what was going on behind me and grabbed her other hand forcing her attention on me. I offered a small smile to her and mouthed the words thank you and she nodded her head to me in reply, wincing a little when she shifted. Her back was going to be sore for a while but even I knew it’d be healed up in a matter of hours and she’d be good to go, hell her hair would probably grow back in some areas. She was different than the others, she was a Faerie, she could do things others couldn’t and her healing factor in her body was one of the best perks.
