"How can I show that I won't hurt you? I'm not… at least, I don't think that I'm hostile." Melanie shrugged, then sat against the opposing wall to Jax. "I won't leave, I'll tell you that much."

Jax literally hissed, baring his teeth and backing up more against the wall. She was going to knock him off of the safe space and watch him fall, laugh and than kill him, he knew it.

She jumped from her spot, trying to back away, but then realizing that there's a wall behind her. Melanie put her arms up to block her head. "Please don't hurt me…" Melanie barely whispered, her voice squeaking.

Jax hissed again and was basically plastered against the wall, looking like a scared cat with his eyes wide open and his body pushed up against the wall. It's a front, I'm going to die.

"D-don't do that, please. Don't be so scary…I-I won't do anything to you, I won't. Please don't…" She was begging, for what was unclear to her. She puts her arms down and made it so she was hugging herself. "Sh-should I leave? Is it my fault? I didn't mean to-I didn't…" Melanie was both talking to herself and to Jax. "I'm sorry!" Melanie seemed at the verge of crying.

Jax whispered a little mantra that went from being insdie his head to coming from his mouth. "She's going to hurt me, she's going to kill me, I won't even get to go sissy's grave, or mama, or pappa's, I'm going to die." He cried, tears rolling down his face.

Fox looks curiously at Met, and then where the person ran off.

Oof, I should mention that when Jax get's scared he starts to become more and more childish.//

He follows the person, finally catching up and seeing the situation. He stays back, trying not to be seen.

Met watched Fox walk away, fiddling with his thumbs. “I don’t think we should follow them,” He said nervously, following anyway.

Fox's pace slows. They kinda just nod.

"I-I don't know what to say, Jax. Do you want a hug? I don't know how-" Melanie let her arms hang at her sides, and she felt worthless. "Can I help at all? What can I do?"

Jax put his hands over his ears, trying to block out the ringing in his head. His breathing quickened, his chest moving up and down swiftly. He tried to calm down, taking deep breaths that would eventually become short intakes of breath.

Fox sees the two, and keeps his distance, trying to not interfere, trying to not make things worse…

Melanie stood up straight, and slowly, steadily, she inched towards and climbed up the cabinet. She cautiously went towards Jax and gave him a hug, hoping for him to understand that they're both hurting. For him to understand that she doesn't kill-it's clear that she can't, even if she tried. She was too frail and weak.

Jax hissed again, pushing her away and flailing his hands. Touching him when he was like this was not a good idea.

Fox watches, trying to see how to not be seen by them, or interact with them if needed.

Melanie tumbled and banged her shoulder on the floor, yelping in pain like a hurt puppy. She clutched her shoulder, where it would probably bruise soon, and lay in a fetal position, whimpering.

Fox abandons the "Stay hidden" plan, and runs up to Melanie to check if she's ok.

Melanie notices Fox, and her eyes widen. "What…? Are you gonna…?," Melanie stood up too quickly, and grimaced when she used her right arm to get herself up. "D-don't hurt me, you…you thing!"

Fox steps away, he falls, but keeps scooting away. He scoots into a corner, whimpering.

Guilt stabs at Melanie, regret soonly following. "I-I didn't mean…" Melanie pauses, and looks down, "I guess I hurt when I try to heal people…"

Fox stops whimpering, he slowly gets up, and hugs Melanie.

Melanie stiffens, but doesn't shove him away. Eventually, she rests her head on Fox's shoulder, and she cries, not wanting to live in hostility.
