Alex turned and smiled at Maddy with amused blue eyes as she climbed back onto the huge horse. He turned back to Amelia and spotted the growing red stain "hey, are you sure you're alright?" he put a hand gently on her shoulder, careful not to hurt her.

Amelia couldn't help but wince, nodding anyways. 'Yeah, yeah I'm fine, just stings a bit,' she said softly, looking at Maddy as she grinned and quickly trotted off. Amelia sighed softly, glancing up to the sky briefl before back at Alex, unable to meet his eyes.

Alex frowned "Doesn't seem like it" the dark patch was spreading and his eyes darkened with concern "Let me have a look" he said softly, he didn't notice Maddy trotting away as he was completly absorbed. Eric, sensing what was going on lay down with a thump and placed his huge head in his oversized, brown paws with a soft whine.

Amelia nodded slightly, Unzipping her blue jacket and taking it off to show the long scar running down her upper amr, bleeding heavily. She winced slightly, only just managing to keep her hand away from the burning pain along the scar which she was good at hiding normally.

"Jesus Amelia" he traced the scar with a gentle finger, hovering inches above the actual wound "What the hell happened to you?" he pulled off his jacket and ripped of a bit of fabric, it was old anyway, and bound it around the wound to stop the bleeding; it worried him to see her in such pain.

Amelia looked at him softly for a moment before back at her arm. 'That was one my adopted father gave me when I was 10,' she said softly, wincing slightly as the cut was bandaged. Aemlia gave a small sigh. 'I've got tons of them but this is the one that always bleeds the worst and always seems to open.'

"Bloody hell" Alex murmered, he sat down on a log and gestured for her to do the same, "You must have had a pretty hard time of it" he thought for a mometn, his childhood had been realtivley easy. He'd been popular and clever, that'd got him through just fine; but Amelia, although she was clever and extremley beautiful, had had something like this done to her. It made his blood boil just thinking about it.

Amelia smiled softly and moved over to sit next to him, nodding slightly. 'Yeah, I've kind of become hardened to it now though. Ever since I was eight I've had to live with being abused at home and even after I moved out, I always seemed to get into abusive relationships,' she sighed, looking down the trail, rubbing her scarred shoulder with her hand.
Aemlia gave a gentle sigh, half relieved that Alex was there of all people she could talk to and for some reason, knew she could trust him to go a tell these sorts of things. 'But it's nothing, really, just keep moving forwards and don't look back to let things like that get you down,' she said, trying to brighten herself up a bit.
She knew deep inside that she could have been more than just an agent for the FBI, that she could have been anything but had never been at school enough to learn past the typicals and even after that she was only taught by the FBI and now couldn't imagine any other job which at times got her down but right now, she felt more safe than normal, even when alone at home.
Amelis looked up at Alex, her blue eyes glittering softly, tears forming in the corners of her eyes.

Alex slipped his arm round her waist, so as to avoid her shoulder, and pulled her closer to him and into a gentle hug. He felt angry about all she'd been through and wished he could change it for her, he traced gentle circles on her back "Its OK" he murmered, they'd been friends for a long time, he hoped she would think it was ok.

Amelia gave a soft smile, wrapping her arms aroundhis softly, unable to stop the tears that flowed down her face. She always kept her feeling inside, at least until she got home where she could be alone with her animals and where no one else could see her but today she just couldn't help it.

Alex stroked her hair and smiled gently, his blue eyes sparkling with concern. "I promise I won't let anything like that happen to you again" he murmured protectively in her ear.
Eric lifted his nose and went to investgiate something in a bush, not far from where the two sat, locked in an embrace. His tail quivered excitedly as he pushed his nose into the soft leaves.

Amelia nodded slightly, pulling back a little way to wipe the tears from her eyes. She gave a small smile, looking over the Eric for a moment before back at Alex, a few strand of her hair falling across her eyes as she brushed them back with a slightly Embarressed look across her face.

Alex smiled at her "It's Ok to let your emotions out once and a while" he said gently, "It's perfectly normal after what you've been through", even though I probably don't know the half of your problems he thought sadly, wondering if his thoughts could really be true in this case and senario.
Eric let out a whimper as something bit his nose, a tiny kitte, only about five weeks old, stood there; her little ginger coat was fluffed up to make her appear bigger, but it din't do much affect...more a merkatt than a tiger.

Amelia smiled softly as she looked back to Eric and gave a small smile when she saw the kitten, looking at Alex once more before getting up and moving slowly next to Eric, reaching out a hand carefully to the kitten, giving a small tutting noise to try and comfort the small cat.

The tiny kitten relaxed the hairs on its coat and revealed how thin it really was, it let out a pitiful mew but stayed where it was, its green eyes watching in terror.
Alex bent down beside Amelia and put a hand out, he pushed Eric away and brushed his fingers together to attract the tiny kitten.
Slowly, with both the noise and the movments, the kitten began to edge forward very slowly, its eyes wary.
