Sylvie stared blankly out the car window.
Not moving.
Barley blinking.
Stella had to check a few times do double check she was breathing.
The only thing the young blonde did was keep a death grip on Stella's hand.
When they got to Gabby's apartment, gabby grabbed Sylvie's over night bag, while Stella helped guide the young women into the apartment building.
When the three women finally reached Gabby's apartment, Sylvie looked a bit more aware of her surroundings.
Once everyone was sitting on the couch for five minutes waiting for the blonde to talk, Gabby finally spoke.
"Sylvie? Honey?" Gabby asked getting to blonde to slightly look up, not making eye contact though, "I know you dont want to, but we need to know what this panic attack was about."
Sylvie shook her head, "I-I can't. You don't understand" she said sounding more and more flustered.
"Hey, it's okay." Stella said
"No. No its not okay. I can't do this. Ill be in trouble. Hell hurt me. I don't want him to hurt me. Please-"Sylvie exclaimed before choking out a sob.
"Honey. It is okay. I need you to take a deep breathe for me. Okay? Just try. In and out." Gabby repeated this mantra numerous more times until Sylvie focused on her face.
"Okay Sylvie did Cruz or Otis hurt you?" Stella asked hating that she even hd to ask the question. But the with the way that she feared the two men had scared the women deeply.
"No! They didn't do anything. I promise." Sylvie replied quickly.
"Okay Sylvie right now you don't have to talk about anything. Why don't I go make some dinner and you and Stella can watch TV and then maybe if you feel up to it, we can talk?" Gabby said standing up hoping the blonde agreed.
"Um yea sure only if thats okay with you two." Sylvie muttered quietly.
"Of course that is okay with us." Still said with sad eyes looking at the young blonde.
"Great ill get on dinner, not sure what it will be yet." Gabby said walking into the kitchen, "Please, put the TV on whatever you two want okay."
As Stella reached towards Sylvie she couldn't help but hate the way that the women flinched. She turned on a comedy movie she had never seen hoping it would calm Sylvie down.
About fifteen minutes later Stella saw Sylvie inching herself towards Stella. Stella just opened her arms allowing Sylvie to lean on her shoulder.
And within the next thirty minutes the young blonde was asleep, exhausted from day spent crying and panicking.
