She landed next to the sofa and struggled over to it to sit before her legs gave way. When she sat down she buried her head in her hands and the tears that she had been holding back for some time now finally broke their boundaries and began to flow uncontrollably.
She had never felt such shame, such guilt, such remorse.
'I've done more harm than good.' she thought, 'They should've sent someone else, someone better, someone...anyone else'
In that moment she felt trapped, trapped in her own head unable to escape her thoughts. She wished that she could be someone, anyone else if only just to escape

Justin walked up to his house after a busy morning. He unlocked the door and walked in. He jumped a little because he saw a familiar face sitting on the couch crying. He took off his jacket and ran over to her. "Liah what is wrong!?" he asked sitting next to her. He rubbed her back trying to soothe her and stop her from crying. He snapped his fingers and a tea pot and cups began to levitate toward them. He created rain to fill up the pot. He heated it with lightning and snapped his fingers again. Chamomile Tea packets levitated to them and poured out into the cups. The tea began to come together and finally he poured hot water into the cups and allowed them to mix. He snapped his fingers again and the things already used went back into the kitchen. He handed a cup to Liah to help soothe her.

"Nothing." she said quickly drying her tears.
'I'm not going to make them worry about me anymore or feel guilty.' she thought, 'I've done enough damage.'
"Thanks," she said, "for everything. I owe you my life."

"No you don't!" he said. "I was just there when you needed me." he said. "Why don't you go up to one of the guest rooms upstairs and freshen up. Both rooms have their own bathrooms. You can stay in the green room or the yellow room." he said standing up.

"Thanks but I think that I'll just sit here for a while if its okay with you," she replied, "I'll go up later, ok?"
The truth was that she could barely stand let alone walk and climb stairs but she didn't want to let on how weak she truly was. To her it was embarassing and she was determined to put on a brave face for Haden and him as much as she could. They had enough on their plate due to her mistakes and if they knew she was this vulnerable it would only add to their worries.

"You don't have to hide anything from me, Liah!" he said sitting down again. "I'm serious, You've been through a lot and I sense that something is missing from you, because you had something when I first met you that you don't have now." he said as he pondered what that something was. "It is your powers! You don't have them anymore! That is what you are missing!" he said putting an arm around Liah trying to comfort her.

"Yes, they're gone." she replied, it didn't make sense hiding that fact from him he'd find out from her dad sooner or later, "Rabecca took them and then...then she twisted them...made the power evil...that's...that's why Avalon fell."
Her body began to shake as she tried to hold back a fresh wave of tears that threatened to overcome her.
"Its all my fault!"

"It's not your fault!" he said rubbing her back. "We should have been more prepared and should have tried to save you and Avalon." he continued rubbing her back trying to soothe and comfort her. He snapped his fingers and a box of tissues came flying out of a drawer in the kitchen. He grabbed it and handed it to Liah and said, "There, there! Let it out!"

His sympathy and understanding made her feel even worse cause no matter what he had said it was her fault. None of this...none of it would've happened if she hadn't run off.
"It is!" she kept saying over and over again now close to hysteria the full weight of everything she had been through now hitting her, "It is!"

"It is not!" he yelled back. "Listen, Aayliah! I was the reason you left! I was the one forcing you into my home so you would be safe and Haden wouldn't worry about you!" he said calming back down. He snapped his fingers and the mysterious wall of witchcraft and weaponry. He got up and walked and looked around. "Ah! here it is!" he said pulling a light lavender potion in vial out. He showed it to Liah and poured it in her tea. "Drink that! It will help calm your nerves!" he said.

"Both of you were trying to protect me," she whispered gaining some control over herself again, "and I refused to listen."
Looking away from him she continued to drink the tea and began to feel pleasantly drowsy. She was confused but her troubles seemed to evaporate as she drank more and more of the tea.

"The potion will let you relax and let you sleep better!" he said. "So drink up." He saw that she was getting drowsy, so he picked her up in his arms and carried her carefully upstairs. He walked up to the yellow room of his house and opened the door. He entered carefully, not wanting to hit her head on a door post. With some free fingers he snapped them and the bedsheets were blown loose and opened up to allow someone to be rested. He didn't know whether or not to undress her so he waited for her to fall asleep or for her to give him permission to.

When he lifted her, she wanted to protest she was quite capable of walking or so she hoped but she didn't have the strength to, she was too sleepy. She felt safe in his arms and relaxed even further as she carried her upstairs almost fully asleep by the time they reached the room. When he stopped she looked into his eyes and smiled before closing her eyes and letting herself fall back into the blissful oblivion of sleep.

Justin smiled back at her when she awoke for a second. He walked over to a dresser with a few items of clothing. He walked back over to Liah and decided to undress her without trying to take advantage of her. He pulled off her shoes and then undid her pants. He slid them off and moved up to her shirt. He undid it and then slid the nightgown he had grabbed a few moments before. He slid it down over her head and down her body. He pushed her into the bed and pulled the covers over her body. He gathered her clothes and layed them on one of the little chairs in the room. He walked over to a large comfy sitting chair, pulled it closer to the bed, and curled up there. Not long after he tucked her into bed he fell asleep.
(OOC: Night passes and morning comes, so liah I guess you can post like you woke up before me and I guess you can fall back asleep or whatever.)

When she woke at first she didn't remember she was but after a few seconds it all came rushing back. She propped herself up in the bed and her gaze fell on Justin's sleeping form.
'He stayed here all night!' she thought in suprise.
She then struggled to her feet and put her covers over him gently, trying not to disturb him. She then walked over to the window and sat on the sill, staring out as the sun slowly rose.
