Drystan! >>
With Sadie and Stephen having begged to stay over at their grandmother's for the night, Bess pushed her way back into their flat with Brian sound asleep against her chest. Her boy had exhausted himself, crawling like an animal around the spacious, baby-proofed cottage. Part of Bess had wished to stay along with her older two kids, finally feeling like her parents' home was a place of comfort and happiness, especially when her own flat had been filled with such anxiety and tension. She'd stayed the night in Sadie's room after her fight with Drystan, trying her best to make her daughter think it was just a girls-night sleepover. Sadie hadn't been fooled, however, and her daughter's concern had made it very hard to go the night without crying.
That cold disappointment was the worst feeling she'd ever had during her marriage to Drystan. It was the one thing she never thought she would feel, and Bess couldn't imagine how she was going to fix this. She hadn't been able to talk to Penny, and hoped that the girl had managed to avoid her husband while he was away at quidditch practice.
He would be home now though, hopefully. As anxious as she was to really see him since the fight, Bess needed to know that he hadn't left. Merlin, she didn't know if he could handle it if Drystan wasn't home.
"Hello?" she called out, hoping to hear a response. Or maybe he wouldn't respond, and she'd have to go looking for him, but as long as he was there...
