May 19th: Need a little more Will power.

by **Will Stanton** » Thu Feb 17, 2011 5:48 pm

Will was in bed, kind of staring out the window.

by **Sara Stanton** » Thu Feb 17, 2011 5:52 pm

Sara is standing in the doorway after having brought Robin to bed, looking at Will.

"Is everything alright?" Oh god could you ask any worse question? Of course he's not okay...

by **Will Stanton** » Thu Feb 17, 2011 5:57 pm

"Hrm? Oh. Uh, yeah...yeah, I'm alright, thank you," he said, smiling the ghost of a smile, and then looking back out the window.

by **Sara Stanton** » Thu Feb 17, 2011 5:59 pm

"Are you sure?" she asks, climbing onto the bed to sit down next to Will.

by **Will Stanton** » Thu Feb 17, 2011 6:00 pm

"I mean....yeah, I am, right? Now? Everything's better, right? Takes more than that to keep me down, and all that..."

by **Sara Stanton** » Thu Feb 17, 2011 6:05 pm

"I understand..." she just says and settles in next to Will, joining him in looking out the window.

"What are we watching?" she asks as if they were just sitting in front of the telly.

by **Will Stanton** » Thu Feb 17, 2011 6:07 pm

"Oh....oh, I'm just, kinda, staring.

I don't...I've been trying to piece together what happened..."

by **Sara Stanton** » Thu Feb 17, 2011 6:11 pm

"Do you really want to? Sam said you might not like it..."

by **Will Stanton** » Thu Feb 17, 2011 6:12 pm

"I dunno...it's just...I was...

I was fine one moment, and then the next...I dunno...it's...unsettling."

by **Sara Stanton** » Thu Feb 17, 2011 6:28 pm

"I think you should trust Sam. I'm not sure I'd want to know about something that rattled her..."

by **Will Stanton** » Thu Feb 17, 2011 6:33 pm

"Yeah...I mean, she knows what's best for me, right? I shouldn't fight against that..."

by **Sara Stanton** » Thu Feb 17, 2011 6:35 pm

"I'm just worried it might make you feel worse..."

by **Will Stanton** » Thu Feb 17, 2011 6:41 pm

"I...

I'm..I'm fine. I'm a big boy, I can handle things..."

by **Sara Stanton** » Thu Feb 17, 2011 6:48 pm

"If you really think it'll help... Just tell me if there's anything I can do."

by **Will Stanton** » Thu Feb 17, 2011 6:55 pm

"I just don't KNOW. I AM fine, now, right? So I should just get over it..."

by **Sara Stanton** » Fri Feb 18, 2011 3:04 am

"You don't seem entirely fine to me..." she says, putting a hand on Will's shoulder.

by **Will Stanton** » Fri Feb 18, 2011 3:05 am

"Well, then, let's fix what's wrong and move on," he frowned.

by **Sara Stanton** » Fri Feb 18, 2011 3:12 am

"I'm not sure what's wrong is just that you can't remember some things..."

by **Will Stanton** » Fri Feb 18, 2011 3:14 am

"Then what is it? I just wanna go on. It's nothing major, we'll just motor though, woosh, and then it'll be great," he frowned, harder.

by **Sara Stanton** » Fri Feb 18, 2011 3:21 am

"Will I don't think this is something you can just... shrug off."

by **Will Stanton** » Fri Feb 18, 2011 3:29 am

"But that's what I do, right? Good ol' Will--everything rolls of his back with a shrug and a smile..."

by **Sara Stanton** » Fri Feb 18, 2011 3:34 am

"Everyone's allowed to take some time to recover from something this horrible."

by **Will Stanton** » Fri Feb 18, 2011 3:35 am

"Then tell me what to do and I'll do it," he practically snapped.

by **Sara Stanton** » Fri Feb 18, 2011 3:40 am

"I... I don't know... I wish I did."

by **Will Stanton** » Fri Feb 18, 2011 3:40 am

"Then I'm fine," he declared, looking back out the window.

by **Sara Stanton** » Fri Feb 18, 2011 3:42 am

"Just... please tell me if there's anything I can do..."

by **Will Stanton** » Fri Feb 18, 2011 3:50 am

"What is there to do? Am I cut? Am I bleeding? Am I falling to pieces?"

by **Sara Stanton** » Fri Feb 18, 2011 3:57 am

"Not physically maybe... But you were hurt. Badly."

by **Will Stanton** » Fri Feb 18, 2011 3:57 am

"But I don't remember being hurt, thus, I must be fine," he harumphed.

by **Sara Stanton** » Fri Feb 18, 2011 4:06 am

"I wish it was that simple."

by **Will Stanton** » Fri Feb 18, 2011 4:19 am

"Then let's just make it that simple," he frowned again. "Just...shake it off and move on."

by **Sara Stanton** » Fri Feb 18, 2011 4:21 am

"If it's that easy then why are you sitting here, staring out the window?" she asks softly.

by **Will Stanton** » Fri Feb 18, 2011 4:23 am

"Iz jus' interestin', 'zall.." he mumbled.

by **Sara Stanton** » Fri Feb 18, 2011 4:30 am

Sara sighs and wraps her arms around Will, staring out the window with him for a while like that's perfectly normal and normal is good right?

by **Will Stanton** » Fri Feb 18, 2011 4:32 am

Will put his hands over Sara's, and just kind of leaned back into her.

Eventually, he started shaking as he held back some tears.

by **Sara Stanton** » Fri Feb 18, 2011 4:37 am

"It's okay... everything's fine..." she, well, lies as she holds him tight but it's the comforting kind of lie.

by **Will Stanton** » Fri Feb 18, 2011 4:39 am

"God, Sara....what happened to me," he cried. "Why do I feel so..." he trailed off.

by **Sara Stanton** » Fri Feb 18, 2011 4:43 am

"I don't know..." And I don't think I'd want to know.

"S-something horrible. She almost erased everything that makes you who you are..."

by **Will Stanton** » Fri Feb 18, 2011 4:50 am

"I feel so EMPTY. Like someone's scooped out my stomach with a melon baller..."

by **Sara Stanton** » Fri Feb 18, 2011 4:57 am

"You just need some time to rebuilt. Like the gingerbread house and the library and the garden..."
