Room 425, Saturday Morning

[new_it_girl]

Hanna was sitting by the window in her room, staring off at nothing in particular. She had just woken up days earlier from a coma she suffered after falling down a well, so her expressions were more pensive than usual. This might be even more life altering than that time she faked her own death or when she was on the losing end of a random love triangle. It had been a traumatic year! Life was hard.

At least she felt safe. For now.

Too bad she didn't seem to hear that ominous music in the distance...

"Fandom is my home now!" Hanna replied, adamant about that. "I would never go back to that...place. I'm done with that life!"

Rapunzel blinked. She seemed to be doing a lot of that today. "What? What happened?" And why hadn't Hanna said anything!?

"I...I don't want to talk about it," Hanna replied, her voice cracking as a single tear slid down her cheek.

"Oh, I'm sorry!" Rapunzel rushed over to her roommate only to stop helplessly. Handkerchief, handkerchief... there had to be one around somewhere!

"It's okay. Not your fault," Hanna sniffed, grateful that her roommate was so concerned.

"But, I didn't even notice anything was wrong!" She felt like an awful roommate.

"Oh, Rapunzel, you did nothing wrong! You couldn't have known," Hanna assured. She had so many secrets. Even her closest friends, including her roommate, didn't know about them.

"But I should have. I mean, you've been so nice to me. So helpful. And I didn't even notice that you needed help."

"And you've been so kind to me when I needed it most," Hanna told her. "You have no idea how much that means to me."

With that said, she reached over, attempting a hug.

Hugs! Rapunzel liked hugs! She squeezed her roommate tightly. "Is there anything I can do to help you?"

"Just...stay safe, okay?" Hanna replied. "You never know what shady characters are out there."

[leavingthenest.livejournal.com]

"I will. I promise."

A few days ago she would have laughed at the idea of the island being dangerous, but she couldn't ignore how scared Hanna seemed to be about that note.
