'Knock, Knock' Her hands shook as she balled them into tight fists, hoping to keep her nerves down. She could feel the butterfly's fluttering around her stomach as if they were high on caffeine, constantly bumping into the inside of her belly. She was so nervous, she felt like she could throw-up any moment. Waiting patiently outside the wooden door she looked around her at the woods. Nothing has changed much, she thought to her self, smiling slightly as she recalled all of her good times, here in Forks. She'd missed it here, playing in the woods, and surprisingly she missed the rain. It doesn't rain that much in the part of Texas she's been living and she hates it. Although it's not the rain that making her dislike the place, it's the...People. The creaking of the door bought back her attention. She turned around to come face to face with Charlie Swan and she couldn't help the soft sigh that escaped her. Charlie stood there motionless, staring at Evelina standing infront of him. He couldnt belive it, after all this time she finally turns up. He was happy that she was here, but he felt his mood change instantly when he took in her appearance. She felt uncomfortable under his watchful eyes. He seemed to be taking in every tiny detail that made her, her. Evelina looked down at her tattered, blood-soaked clothes and softly shrugged without looking up. "W-what?" Charlie manged to get out before falling silent again. Evelina didn't know what to say. Obviously she couldn't tell him the truth, but she really didn't want to lie to him. She opted for another shrug, still not looking up. She didn't want to see his face at the moment, she was scared that if she did, she might end up telling him everything. "Evelina, what happened to you?" Charlie asked softly, taking a few small steps towards the bloodied girl standing before him. He felt sick thinking about what could have caused this much damage to the girl he had always thought of as a daughter. "Nothing." Evelina whispered. Still refusing to look at him. Charlie didn't believe her, it was obvious that something had gone down with her, but he wasn't going to pressure her right now. All she needed was comfort. "Come 'ere." Charlie said soothingly, again taking another few steps closer. After hearing what Charlie said, Evelina limped forward towards Charlie and hesitantly wrapping her delicate arms around his waist and his larger arms encircled around her shoulder, pulling her closer and resting his head on top of hers. Evelina gripped the back of Charlies shirt in her fist, as if trying to make sure e couldn't disappear. "It's going to be okay now, Evie. I promise." He whispered into her hair. "You're safe now." Those three words floated around her head, as if teasing her, because she knew that it didn't matter where she went, she'll never be safe. No one can keep her safe, they're going to find her, one way or another.
