"You all came!" Ivory smiles, sitting up straight against the hospital pillows. She reaches out and holds her hand out towards Ben who takes hold of it. A smile stretches out on his face and he lifts her hand to his lips, placing a gentle kiss on the back.
"How are you feeling?" He asks, standing by her side. Ivory blushes slightly, looking up at him through her dark lashes.
She appears to be well on the road to recovery.
Her skin has re-gained its healthy colour and her blue eyes hold more life inside them. She's still disappear into her own world from time to time, a glazed over look in her eyes. The pain that fills her features saddens my heart and I can't imagine the ordeal she's endured by the hands of Jane.
"I'm feeling better, I can't believe I'm going home today." Ivory lets out a small laugh in disbelief. I smile widely at her, letting go of Jake's hand to walk towards her. Ivory immediately holds out her arms, signalling for me to embrace her.
