Growing Up [Private: TheLastLion & Stormy]

[TheLastLion]

"I think he does," Jade replied. "He just has a hard time vocalizing it."

[Stormy]

“I hope it’s that.” Destiny replies softly. “As much as I made it hard on him or he made it hard on me when we were younger I always loved him no matter what.”

[TheLastLion]

"I'm sure he feels the same. It just takes him a while to reach the point where he's comfortable opening up." Jade added.

[Stormy]

"I guess so." Destiny replies. "But why wouldn't he feel comfortable with me? I'm his sister."

[TheLastLion]

"To be fair, it took a fair amount of time before you were able to open yourself up with me and Sadie."

[Stormy]

"But... that's different." Destiny replies. "At some point, you and I were just friends, same with Sadie. Flash has ALWAYS been my brother. I... I mean don’t get me wrong.. there’s nothing at this point that I would tell Flash that I wouldn’t also tell you, but I think you get what I’m trying to say.”

[TheLastLion]

"I think I understand." Jade replied, "Perhaps it would help if we were proactive with making him feel comfortable."

[Stormy]

Destiny just looks at Jade. “Yes.... but again... not at the moment.”

(Sorry for the delayed response.)

[TheLastLion]

"Right. Let him vent and come down."

[Stormy]

Destiny sighs as she looked to the side, then back to Jade. “How long do you think you’re going to want to stay here?”
