Maybe if Preston was dead, she would be down and hiding herself to cry like this. She moved closer and gave her fellow lion a hug.
"I miss my family too..." Ava murmured. She missed Dima, Alana, little Keenan, Zhenya, her parents, even she missed being yelled by her mom. "Even my twin brother is here, I also miss him since we're not in the same house and uh... He spends lots of his time all by himself." Like studying, reading and... Well, she doubted if Teddy spent his time talked with his fellow Eagles. For now, she's not really mad at him anymore.
Muffins! People said that eating could make someone who wasn't in a good mood become better. Ava then grabbed the muffins plate and offered it to Noelle. "D'you want some? And I have hot chocolate too."
Yep. Her dead goat Baskins.
Sniff.
Then Ava was hugging her and it took everything not to cry. Because when you draw attention to someone's feelings, who are trying to hold those feelings in, they start to leak out. "
Its okay. People and things die but I wasn't expecting it and I had him since he was a wee little thing." Sniffle sigh.
Noelle listened as Ava said she missed her family too. "
I used to always be with my mum and when I was upset about something I could crawl into her bed but she's not here." The holidays were coming up though so she would get to see them soon.
Sniff.
The sniffling and the plate of muffins in front of her was a good combination. Nodding, she grabbed one softly. "
Thanks." She said and sat the muffin in her lap. "
What are you doing down here?"
