Claiming Emma
“She looked like she was sleeping and she was just going to wake up and start her day any moment. Impossibly small in that bed, her usually golden skin seemed bleached white under the harsh florescent lights. She looked younger than the sixteen he knew her to be, but remembering the last time he had seen her at eleven, he knew she had changed in significant ways. Not the least of which was that she was a mother now. Ridiculous to think about when she was still a child herself. She looked ...peaceful, at least, without obvious pain or the slackness of expression he had been dreading. As if the mind was gone, but the body hung on.
Noah noticed with even more relief that she looked well taken care of, her hair clean and braided, her hands resting on the top of the covers had a pretty pink gloss on them that looked new, and there were pots of plants placed by the bed and at the window scenting the air of lavender and roses. They neatly disguised the underlying disinfectant hospitals always smelled like, if they didn't smell of worse things.MoreLess
