She put a hand to her mouth, watching him with horror.

Amyntas coughs again, “What happened-“

She was shaking she realized as she dropped her hand. "Y-you were dead. You're heart stopped. You weren't breathing." She started crying now as she said the words.

Amyntas frowns, “Oh…again…” He mutters. He then hugs her. “Shh…I’m ok…”

Ariella folded into his arms, crying into his arms. "Again?" She asked hysterically.

He goes quiet for a moment, then nods. “Yeah…”

Ariella looked up at him, tears falling and nose running. "What? How?"

Amyntas wipes her tears, “I…don’t know…I’ll black for a while…then all of a sudden I’m back…”

Ariella closed her eyes as he touched her cheek. She sniffled. "Let's not do that again."

He sighs, silent.

Ariella slumped back into him, still crying quietly. She was slowly starting to calm down.

Amyntas holds her close, closing his eyes. “I’m sorry…”

"It's not your fault." She mumbled into his chest. She wrapped her arms around him tight.

He sighs, hiding his face in her hair.

Ariella just shook in his embrace.

Amyntas holds her until she calms down, and even then, he still keeps hugging her.

Even after she had stopped crying, she stayed in his arm. It was nice, comfortable.

Amyntas sighs, “I’m sorry if I’m still cold…I can’t tell anymore…” he wasn’t, surprisingly. Instead, he was warm. Very warm.

She shook her head. "You're not anymore."

He hums, “Ok…good I guess…”

She nodded, closing her eyes. She snuggled against him.

Amyntas sighs, “What time is it…?”

Ariella shrugged her shoulders. She hadn't been paying attention.

Amyntas sighs, “I’ll try to find out..”

Ariella nodded her head, sighing softly.
