Rio came up to the door. "Fiona… I'm still here… If you need it…"
Rio came up to the door. "Fiona… I'm still here… If you need it…"
Her fingers rested on the lock but her mind wouldn't let her undo it. It took a minute but she gathered her strength and undid the lock before collapsing again, sobbing into her hands.
Rio carefully tried the door. Opening it he soon had Fiona in his arms murmurring that it be ok.
The voices rejected him, trying to force him out again but her heart was already so broken, she couldn't bring herself to move.
Rio couldn't help tears welling up as he tried to comfort her, eventually resorting to sining a lullaby in the language of the sea.
It was like her heart stopped to listen. She couldn't help it, she was a sucker for a good singing voice. Her tears slowed slightly, almost pausing to hear.
Rio smiled sadly, and kept sining until the song was done, but he didn't stop there, he kept going, switching seamlessly to a love song.
She wiped her now tear stained cheeks before glancing up at him with a water smile.
Rio kept singing, gladthat it was helping.
Her heart wanted to listen, to let go, to love him, but her mind wouldn't let her. And just the thought of it, being a prisoner of her own mind, made her gaze dropping again, her face falling.
Rio lifted her chin gently, his eyes telling her not to give in again.
Her eyes were rimmed with tears, threatening to spill over. But his voice was so pretty, calming even. She could listen to him all day.
Rio kept singing, switching songs every time he ran out. He sang like that for hours, until his voice started to give out but even then he didn't stop.
She calmed slowly the more he sang until she finally relaxed. When she knew the song, she'd hum the harmony, sometimes singing.
Rio smiled when she sang, eventually pulling both of them tho their feet, hugging her.
"I'm sorry I'm such a broken mess." She mumbled into his shoulder, hugging him tightly.
"Everyone has their dark spots…." said Rio softly. "Will you let me try to pull you out of yours?"
"Please…I can't take them anymore…"
Rio nodded, "We'll work through this… I know we can.."
"I hope so." Her grip on him only tightened.
Rio tightened hius grip on her in reassurance. "Do you want to stay here?"
"I-I can't. Please no." Her eyes brimmed with tears again.
Rio held her, "Calma… you can come home with me…"
"I-If you wouldn't mind…"
"Of course not!" said Rio, smiling at her.
She cracked a tiny, broken smile. "Thank you."
Rio smiled, "Always." he told her.
"Now is not the time to quote Harry Potter." She chuckled softly.
Rio laughed, "It brightened the mood!"
"I mean, it certainly did but still!"
