Blue wraps around Gansey tightly, and it's him. He doesn't quite smell like himself, he smells like this place, but he's Gansey and she buries her face against his shoulder. She's glad she scurried in, sat before he could stand. He's been here for a few days. Had to be hell on him, even if he was asleep.
His question makes her choke a little, and she can't lie. She's refusing, absolutely, to lie about any of this anymore. "No." She pulls back from the hug and looks at him, eyes relieved and broken at the same time. Her hand smooths over his cheek, and she shrugs her shoulders. "I think I will be, though." She can be. He's there and hanging onto her and maybe it did work. Maybe Gansey's not going to die now.
She takes a breath and bites hard at her bottom lip. "It's been a crappy day." There's a hint of a sad laugh as she says it, because it's the understatements of all understatements. "Adam..." She looks back toward the door, and Adam's not behind her. "Adam's here too. Adam?" She raises her voice a little. Then she turns back to Gansey, kisses his cheek, and hugs him again. "Not sure I've ever been this glad to see you."
