Jay flinched when he was touched, but wasn't in much of a condition to panic as he normally would have done. He leaned against Bridgett, still unable to look her or Drew in the eyes. He hiccuped, trying to stop himself from crying again. Stupid, stupid, stupid! You let your guard down and now you're just going to break down! And so he did. It seemed that Jay had accepted defeat, clinging to Bridgett and trembling violently. He remembered every time he was hurt, every time he was made to feel worthless, every horrible moment in his life for as far back as he could remember.

(Lol exactly)
Bridgett hummed softly as she moved her hand to stroke Jay's hair while he cried in her arms.

Drew watched the two people before him as he sat back and let it happen. He waited for a moment to speak when everything would be calm.

(Jesus Christ DRIDGETT JAY IS LITERALLY SEVEN AND DOES NOT KNOW LOVE)

(Yes, exactly, I was gonna point this out, but I thought I;d let @Smol_Snake do it)

(HAHAHAHAH SORRY IDK WHAT JAY'S AGE WAS XDXDXD)

@Fraust

Jay wasn't sure what to do at first when Bridgett started running her fingers through his hair, but he found that he sort of… liked it. He didn't know that there was physical contact that wasn't explicitly bad, dangerous, or harmful. It actually calmed him down some and he started trying to wipe the tears from his face, still clinging to Bridgett.

Drew made eye contact with Bridget as they silently communicated their sadness that this boy is going through a thing like this.

@Fraust

After a few minutes, Jay's breathing slowed. He had fallen asleep, his face streaked with tears. Naturally, he was exhausted from all the events of the day.

@Bri_Soto

Bridgett was surprised to realize how close to both Jay and Drew in the little while they've been together. She felt like she could communicate telepathically with Drew now as she conveyed her feelings through her eyes and he did the same.
She looked down at Jay to find him sleeping in her arms. She looked at Drew, silently asking his help to move him to an extra bed she had upstairs.

@Swiggotyy_Swootyy

Drew smiled a little at the kid. And leaned his head back against the wall. He sighed and summoned a kids bed. He then sighed, stood, and walked over to Bridget and Jay. He looked at the girl and the boy with his hands in his pockets. He whispered, "How long have you known him?"

@Fraust

(I mean my mom and sister are practically telepathic. They're off in their own little world and everyone else is just like lol wot)

@Bri_Soto

Bridgett looked down at Jay fondly. "Not long. I only opened the library a few weeks ago and he started coming a while after that."

@Swiggotyy_Swootyy

(idk if they can communicate that well without words, but y'know)

(Drew's powers all have to do with the mind. I was thinking that he could probably read minds. or at least, read emotions.)
