#marcello14

Sav hadn’t returned to the grand hall after she had ran from it, instead barring herself in her room, ignoring the sound of her phone vibrating as she desperately tried to block out what had just happened. Her eyes were puffy as she kept crying, changing into one of Marcello’s sweaters that had been left there at some point, and burying herself under her blankets, just wanting to hide from everything that had happened. She didn’t know how long she had been there, going between feeling utterly numb and near sobbing, sniffing back her tears that were soaking her pillow anyways when she heard the door open. She desperately tried to quiet her cries, not peeking her head out - not wanting to face her family, sure it would only be reprimands. 

Despite her obvious sniffles, her obvious location in the bed, she desperately just wanted whichever one of her parents or sisters it was to go away, just burying herself deeper into the blankets when she felt him climbing into the bed, the familiar feeling of Marcello’s arms wrapping around her, just causing her sobs to increase, growing more insistent as he slid under the blankets with her. “What are you doing?” she asked, the words barely coherent around the crying, barely able to comprehend that he - that anyone, really - would actually come.
