Everybody hurts,
Take comfort in your friends.
Everybody hurts,
Don't throw your hand, Oh, no
Don't throw your hand
If you feel like you're alone, no, no, no, you are not alone

She didn't know how she made it there. In a daze she wandered through the streets of Chicago at night. The only light came from streetlights at first, then as she got into poorer neighbourhoods, the light from people's windows.
It started to rain, but she hardly noticed, until she smelt it. That musty smell that always used to comfort her. When she looked up, she saw where she had walked to. She rang the doorbell and heard a patter of feet coming from the kitchen. Light flooded the doorstep and she looked up to meet his eyes. There was a certain amount of surprise on Luka's face but she also saw that he was glad to see her. "Come in," he said, in his deep soothing tone.
He saw her blotchy face, and he knew that it had happened. She had broken up with Carter. On one hand, he felt relieved because he still had feelings for her. On he other hand, he was concerned because he wasn't ready to jump back into a relationship with her. But when she fell into his arms, and pressed her head against his chest, he knew that all she was looking for was support. She needed comfort, a friend and someone to help her get over him. He put his arms around her and immediately felt comfortable, something he hadn't felt in a long time.

Everybody hurts,
