"And you only need one," *countered Virginia, looking at her earnestly.*
"Have you found it?"

*Sylvia thought briefly on her earlier encounter with Dr. Crane, how his hard façade had given way to warmth. She smiled softly and nodded.*
“I believe that I have. I only hope that I can help you find it. Or at least some peace.”

*Virginia's smile was soft, malleable by any change in emotion.*
"I have peace--always. I carry it with me. I only ever wanted to share it with others. Now I hope I can."

*Sylvia’s smile widened.*
“You will. Even I feel the peace that you bring.”
*She grinned playfully.*
“Perhaps you should be charging me.”

*Virginia chuckled at that.*
"For what? I'm not massaging you. And you brought me tea."

*Sylvia just smiled and shook her head.*
“You are lovely. Giving away your charms for free. Perhaps next time, you can bring me the tea…or give me a massage. Then I would not feel so guilty for saying such things.”

"Perhaps next time I won't flee the room like a complete ninny," *laughed Virginia, though the sound was a little dulled by the memory of recent events.* "And you've said nothing you need feel guilty for."

*Sylvia shrugged with a mischievous grin.*
“If you are so certain, I must believe you.”
*Taking a more serious tone, she added.*
“Next time will be fine. If you would feel better about it, we might take it together.”

*Virginia sighed and shook her head.*
"I should be fine on my own. I doubt Declan will ever come back. That was the main problem. If it had been anyone else, I think I should have done alright."

*Sylvia caressed her cheek gently.*
“You will. I believe in you.”
*She studied her face for a moment.*
“You’ve had a taxing day…Should I let you rest?”

*Virginia felt a little bereft at the idea of being left alone with her thoughts, but at the same time she was exhausted.*
"If you think it best," *she said lightly.*

*Sensing her indecisiveness, Sylvia smile and stroked her hair.*
“If you would like, I could stay here for the night. At least until you fall asleep. Would that help?”

“Nothing set in stone. I really don’t mind. Would it please you?”

*Virginia hugged Sylvia happily.*
"Yes--you're so good to me. I feel better knowing you're nearby," *she said quietly, her eyes already drifting shut.*
