"Thin..." Garrett repeated. Not eating for a few days might have had something to do with that. "I'm just not hungry." He sipped his tea.

***

Eliene sighed. "None of this was your fault. Or Garrett's. It's important to remember that."

Sazan nodded slowly, although really... if he'd followed through on several things... none of this would have happened.

"YOu need to eat though... not much. I could jsut make you some toast with butter and that might... it would fill your stomach a bit." Noelle whispered to him. "It might make you feel better." He was so... in shock.

Garrett shook his head, refusind. and closing his eyes. He was too tired to drink anymore of his ea, or even to hold to cup. He sank back down.

Noelle took the tea from him. "Garrett... you need to eat something." She whispered putting the tea aside. "Please? You won't have to do anything. I'll make you some soup, something warm. It'll make you feel better I know it." She said, really trying he looked... gaunt.

Garrett ultimately ignored her, turning on his side and trying to get some more sleep.

***

Jacob lay out in the grass, looking in the clouds. He was beside two exhausted children, and possibly and exhausted Whisper as well.

Noelle frowned and slid out of the bed. She was going to make him soup whether he would eat it or not.. he needed something! And the fact that he wasn't eating scared her. SHe walked out into the kitchen to start.

****
Izy was looking up at the clouds too, but she really was exhausted, curling into Whisper who was close to her and CHristain.

Whisper glanced over at Jacob and smiled a bit. She was a little tired, but more, she was worried about Jacob.

Garrett lay in bed and stared off, giving up sleep for now. It was too hard for him now.

***

Jacob looked over and smiled at Whisper. The kids weren't between them, so he stole a soft lingering kiss.

Noelle brought it a bowl of soup, mostly broth. She didn't think he could eat something more substantial, but there were bits of chicken and some vegetables if he wanted. She sat down on the bed, the tray in her lap. "I made you something." She whispered to him. "Garrett... will you please eat?"

***
Izy took hold of Christain's hand and with her other hand put her thumb in her mouth.

Whisper smiled a bit into the kiss and when it broke, looked up at him happily. "You're amazing," she breathed.

Christian glanced to Izy, but he'd been watching Whisper and Jacob. Gross, he thought, shaking his head and turning away a bit.

Garrett sighed and closed his eyes, managing to sit up. "I'm too tired." He muttered.

***

Jacob smiled and kissed her once more before letting her rest beside him.

Noelle nodded. "I know... Garrett, but you need to just eat something. It's not hard... just sip at the broth. Please? It'd make me feel so much better." She whispered to him. "I can even help if you want." She took his hand and held it. Trying so hard to take care of him.

****
Izy looked over, seeing Christain turn away from her, but she saw what Jacob and Whisper were doing... it looked interesting. They were both smiling after. Maybe it was fun!

Whisper rested her head against his shoulder with a contented sigh.

Christian sighed as well, but he was ready to go home. Laying here was boring.

Garrett had closed his eyes. He felt like something was being drained. It was really affecting him.

Jacob smiled and closed his eyes, content to nap there.
