Audrey snuggled against Alex very tightly as she cried. She just buried her head against his chest and stood there. She didn't want him to let her go. She was really glad that he didn't ask about her parents. She didn't feel like explaining it now.

Alex just stood there with Audrey. He felt really bad for her, but he had warned her not to get too attached to Allison.

She started to cry a little louder. She clasped her hand around her mouth, not wanting to make noise. "I'm such an idiot." she sobbed. "I should have listened to you." She was crying a lot now. Her whole body was shaking.

You are not an idiot. It is hard not to get too attatched to people like her. Some people are easy to not get attachedto, but Allison was such an amazing girl, everyone liked her. Alex said. Audrey was far from an idiot.

Audrey continued to sob. "How do you do it? How do you not break down when something like this happens?" she cried, still hugging him very tightly.

It's not easy sometimes. But when I was in highschool I vonunteered at a nursing home and the old people they made me visit kept dying, atleast I wasn't in the room with them, well except for one, but still it was kinda hard. Then when I started working at the hospital there was a little boy I got too close to that had been shot that died which was really hard, then a disease went through the hospital and everyone was dieing. It gets easier after a while, but it never is totally easy. It's not as hard when people that are incredibly rude die though as the nice ones. Alex said.

Audrey hugged him a little tighter and cried. "I hate this..." she sobbed. "I hate seeing people scared and upset and no matter what you do and what you tell them, it never helps. And then, when they do die, I just hate seeing their family cry."

It is pretty awful. Some days I don't even know why I decided on this job, but then there are days where everything goes great and I love my job. Alex said. There will always be bad days, but there are more good than bad.

Audrey nodded. She hugged Alex tighter. She didn't want him to let her go. She didn't trust people very easily but she trusted him. She buried her head against his chest and just cried softly.

Alex hugged Audrey a bit tighter. He was kinda enjoying hugging Audrey, but at the same time he wasn't because she was upset.

Somebody knocked at the door. When there was no answer, Mr. Cranely let himself in. He galnced over at Alex and Audrey and smiled slightly. They looked cute together. He walked over and rested his hand on Audrey's shoulder as she just continued to snuggle up with Alex and cry. "Mr. and Mrs. Jones just wanted me to thank you two for everything. And you can both have the day off. It's been a rough day for all of us." he said softly. He gave Audrey a pat on the back and then left the office.

((Wow, I just suddenly got incredibly tired. 5 and a half hours of sleep isn't near enough for me, I'm dead if I don't get atleast 8, and if I get more than 10. lol))
Thanks. Alex said when Mr. Cranely said they could have the day off.

((lmao!!!))
Audrey didn't really hear what Mr. Cranely had said. She was no longer really crying. Her breath was still weird and uneven but she was okay. She closed her eyes and just stayed in Alex's arms. It was making her feel better, knowing that he was there for her.

Audrey hugged him very tightly, not wanting to move. She wanted to stay with Alex. She was so comfortable in his arms. Something about it felt right.
