He leaned into her hands a bit as she whipped the tears away, he breath was shaky. His emotions were destabilizing, it had been a long time coming.
James didn't say much after that, he was drained, both emotionally and physically. He looked at her uncertainty, the emotions she was transferring to him were calming him down.
He looked at the bed, a bit of fear in his eyes, nightmares were common for him. It seemed like every night he had one, some terrible collection of images and sounds. Sighing quietly he sat on its edge and slowly laid down.
His eyes slowly closed and then opened again, he looked to her. He didn't have a family, whoever his parents were, they'd left him in an alley for Garret to find. Anna, Nyota, Euna, Klef, Hal, they were his family and he was grateful for them.
He started to quietly hum along with her song, sleep wouldn't come for him, but he'd rest the best he could. Hoping that through him resting, Anna would stop worrying. He had a long road ahead, the suffering and pain wasn't over yet, but he had friends, an odd collection of family to be there for him. Despite hoe he felt, he wasn't alone, and he never would be.
