Sylan stood slowly and sat on the edge of the bed. "Lanie ..." He said softly. He didn't know what to do to comfort her so he sat there waiting.

Sylan wrapped his arms round his youngest sister holding her gently. "Shh baby... I'm here, I'm here." He felt her tears soaking into his shirt.

Sylan continued to hold her even after she has stopped crying. "Whatever you are apologiseing for ... don't worry about it, I accept your apology, now lets say we forget about it... ok?" He asked looking down at the child that clung to him like a lifeline. "I'm not going anywhere... I promise." He wispered hugging her again.

David smiled and waved at her.

Sylan didn't move from where he sat nor did he loosen his grip on Lanie. He saw the nervous look she shot him. "I can't tell him for you ... I wasn't there, please... don't be afraid to tell him."

Lanie's stomach was churning she was scared. did she do something wrong? was she going to be in trouble? crazy thoughts kept going through her mind. she fineally pushed them aside and spoke up. " my uh, e-ex boyfriend and someone h-his friends" she looked at the ground and paused. " they beat me" she said her eyes still foucused on the floor.

Sylan looked over at David. He had been right when he had said Josh, and now Lanie had confirmed it.

" ok well lets check you out see if theres any internal bleeding or brusing" he said. he checked her out and then sighed. " ok well you have a slight internal briuse on your stomach twards the left." he said marking on his clipboard. " but thats it...you can go home today."
the doctor now turned to Sylan. " young man, i need to have a talk with you." he said looking very serious.

Sylan nodded and stepped out of the room with the doctor. He didn't say anything knowing he was probably gonna get chewed out, but he didn't care.

The Doctor sighed and looked Sylan in the eye. " look, by law i have to turn this in, but i wont, if you promise me that something like this will never happen again. " he said catching the young man's gaze

Sylan nodded. "It won't ... She's been frightened enough now not to do something that stupid ever again." He glanced back at the room, then steppd into the doorway where Lanie could see him. He had no desire to leave her even though David was in the room with her.

Lanie saw Sylan at the door and relaxed a bit.

The doctor sighed. " so something like this has happend before?" he asked getting a little angry.
