This is based on the Lofty/Max hug from last night but instead of Max its Dylan

Posted on tumblr earlier but thought you all may like it... Its a little crap and I rushed writing it but here you are!
Loftys breathing was fast. He could feel his heart rate racing, he knew he needed to slow it down, he knew how to. He just couldn't.
His chest felt tight and his breathing was erratic. Uncontrollable tears falling from his eyes.
Dylan walked into the staff room. He saw Ben,, his face screwed up, breathing heavily, bent over, half day on he sofa. Dylan didn't hesitate.
He wasn't one for hugging but this was am exception. Ben needed him.
Dylan put his arms around Lofty. Who buried his head into his shoulder, tears staining his shirt. Dylan surprised himself. He found his arms had moved around lofty, hugging him back.
"She had a little girl, Dylan." Lofty sobbed, everything he was feeling just came out.
"I know, I know." Dylan told him. He didn't know what else to say.
"What am a going to do?" He sobbed, staying Dylan's shirt further.
"Shhhh, it's alright. I've got you." Dylan reassured Lofty. His arms tightening. He wasn't letting Ben go anytime soon. "I've got you." Dylan told him one final time, his arms moving up and down Lofty's back in his attempts to calm the nurse down.
What could he say? This whole situation was a mess. Right now he didn't care what happened. Ben needed him, that's all that mattered.
So thoughts?
