Chapter 21: Comforting times

Judy knew Destiny couldn't be alone. So instead of taking her home she took her to the ranch. As she entered her driveway she noticed Destiny cried herself to sleep. "What happened to her my lady?" Gerald asked. "She was bullied horribly at school and needed to leave. I didn't want to leave her alone. Is my parents home?" Judy asked. " No my lady they went out with June and Thor. They said they will be gone all afternoon not to make lunch. Do you need me to carry her to your room?" Gerald asked. "Yes please I'm going up to clean my makeup. It upset me to see her in so much pain. Please do not let my parents know we are friends." Judy pleaded. "Of course your secret is safe with me my lady." Gerald pronounced. Destiny woke to Gerald wiping her face. She jumped up wondering where she was." My lady didn't want to leave you alone. She went to clean her makeup and asked me to clean yours while you rested. I only want to comfort you. You are so beautiful and kind and don't deserve any hardships. Who ever is hurting you needs to back off. We witches and wizards need to stick together." Gerald calmly said. "I'm okay. Thank you for your kindness." Destiny mustered. If Marcus knew Gerald Sardell was comforting his girl he would loose his cool. Or would he really? Destiny felt like everything she knew was gone and she would question everything. Marcus showed her love once and now his parents lives are at stake he is forced to show her hate. He refused to comfort her so he can't blame Gerald for wanting to.
