Obsessed One-on-one RP (CLOSED; STALKERS ALLOWED)

(she has a c-section scar)

Alice shook her head vehemently. "No. It never went that way for me."

“Good,” Isobel replied, pushing away all the memories that arose. She finished bandaging up Alice’s stomach— but a long scar caught her eye. Was that— was that what she thought it was? But she knew both staring and questions would only upset Alice, so she quickly moved on to bandaging her arms.

Alice caught Isobel's eyes lingering at the bottoml of her stomach. She inhaled sharply, willing Isobel to move on… she did. She took Alice's arm and started treating it. Filled with relief, Alice's shoulders sagged and she relaxed into Isobel's grip.

Alice’s obvious relief didn’t escape Isobel’s notice, but she said nothing on the subject. “Right, I’m done bandaging, I’m going to help you put this cast on, okay? Tell me if it hurts.”

Alice’s obvious relief didn’t escape Isobel’s notice, but she said nothing on the subject. “Right, I’m done bandaging, I’m going to help you put this cast on, okay? Tell me if it hurts.”

@amber_is_in_a_loop

Alice nodded. She'd never worn a cast for her many broken bones, and never thought she would. It was a drastic change to be taken care of, and though she wasn't used to it, she liked it. She tucked her hair behind her ears and smiled down at Isobel. "Thank you."

@blue_topaz

Isobel shrugged, gingerly fitting the old cast onto Alice’s foot. “It’s not a spectacular feat. Just fixing you up a bit. Is this too tight?”

@amber_is_in_a_loop

Alice wiggled her foot. "I think it's good." She attempted to stand up.

@blue_topaz

Isobel rushed to support her, though she knew she wouldn’t need it. “Be careful. Okay?”

@amber_is_in_a_loop

Alice snorted. "I'll be careful." She stood up and easily straightened. She walked around the room with a slightly heavier limp than usual but still relatively easily. "All good." She gave Isobel a toothy grin.

@blue_topaz

Isobel leaned against the wall, sighing. “I can’t do anything about your rib, though..”

@amber_is_in_a_loop

Alice rubbed at her sore stomach. "I think it should be fine." She unconsciously drew her finger across her scar, thinking. Finally, she hobbled back to the couch to put her shirt back on.

@blue_topaz

Isobel watched her, rubbing tiredly at her eyes and wondering how on earth she could have gotten into this situation. "If you say so."

@amber_is_in_a_loop

Alice turned to Isobel. "I should probably leave." She met Isobel's gaze keeping her expression neutral.

@blue_topaz

Isobel sighed, looking her over. "I can't exactly stop you… are you going home, then?"

@amber_is_in_a_loop

Alice hesitated. "Of sorts." She collected her things, mulling things over. "Anyway. Have a good week?"

@blue_topaz

Isobel didn't fail to notice her hesitation. "Won't I see you before then?"

@amber_is_in_a_loop

Alice's face brightened, though she tried to hide it. "Up to you."

@blue_topaz

Isobel tried for a smile, though she was inexplicably exhausted. “For sure. Come by tomorrow…. through the lobby, preferably.”

@amber_is_in_a_loop

Alice nodded slowly. Without saying a word, she left the apartment. She walked down the stairs, out the building and to the park. It was deserted.

@blue_topaz

Isobel heaved another long sigh, head spinning. She sat down heavily on the couch, trying to place her emotions.
What am I going to do? I’ve got a funeral in a week, all the way in Montreal, and a stalker? A very injured one?

@amber_is_in_a_loop

Alice roamed the park, stopping at every other bench. It was a very nice night, warm and a little humid. She stopped at the far corner of the park, the corner farthest away from all entrances, the corner where almost nobody ever came.
And sat down on a bench. She lay her extra clothes out beneath her and lay down.
