Hope

Looking up at Eric Ashlee gave a nod. She didn't want to get another lashing so she might as well follow. It would be better than way even if she was upset. Putting the items she was using away she followed Eric into the break room in the barn.

Sitting down and seeing Eric grab the first aid kit Ashlee let out a long sigh. She should of known he she couldn't hide how much pain she had been in. Just letting him work she was silent watching. She didn't know what to say, she still felt so angry about this whole thing and hurt.

   "Ok, I'll be back later to finish."

Standing and letting out a long sign Ashlee just headed out of the barn. Stopping at the door she looked down at her hands. Turning and looking at Eric she nodded.

   "Thanks."

She held up her hands before turning and heading out. She'd start her school work and the just hibernate for the rest of the day.

Opening his eyes and watching Scott Dalton was quiet not wanting to startle Scott. He hoped tomorrow would be better for him after a good night sleep. He was worried for his friend, if things didn't look better tomorrow he'd talk with Hope.
