hidden injury
John exhaled slowly. Something tight in his chest finally came loose the moment he saw her face. He'd spent the last hour convincing himself he was too late.
"You're okay," said John. The words came out rougher than he intended. His hand found her face, her shoulder. He was checking, just making sure @pleinsdemuses was real and here. "You're okay." John stepped closer. "I needed to see you first. To make sure-" his voice was softer now. "Someone must have talked or know something."
