[rp][locked to Sarah]
After Jeremy went with Sarah to get her things back, after he saw what remained of what she went through, the deaths that she saw, experienced, helped with on hand, Jeremy could not leave her, would not leave her. He asks if she'd prefer going back to her house or to his room at Martha's house. It doesn't matter which one she says, because he is

She more or less passed out, or rather, her body decided it was giving out on her mid-walk, before she could even decide if she wanted to go back home or not. She'd have been a little gunshy about taking Jeremy up on his offer, even if going back home wasn't really something she wanted to do, and at the same time, she didn't want to impose on whoever lives with him, which...she realizes she'd never asked about. She assumed he lived in the Tower with his sister.
Elena had been furious while she was left in the Tower without being able to leave it, but once she was able to she'd have returned to her room at Martha's, and she'd have been worried when Jeremy came home with a girl that was passed out. The night was already a disaster as it was, and the concern only grew, but she didn't question it, either ( ... )

It was obvious to him that she needed it. She passed out in front of him, and he half wondered if he should take her to the hospital instead. He remembered that Martha was a doctor and Martha looked over her, assuring him that she would be okay if she rested, got fluids and food when she woke up. Jeremy listened to her, but it hasn't been easy to not worry.
Every part of him is worrying. He saw the whole... setting. He saw it. It hurt to see. It hurt more to know that she was there when it all exploded, and he can't-- can't imagine what that must have been like, but he has a better idea after walking through the aftermath of it, seeing all the blood and the corpses that remained ( ... )

The problem is, no sooner you wake up, it all comes rushing back to you in distorted images and with rapidfire force. Sarah blinks away the lethargic, groggy feeling and lifts herself up, leaning against her elbows as she looked around. Her fingers slip into her hair, cradling the side of her face, and at least the painful thudding in her head is gone, too.
Elena would've kept him company, and also made him dinner since she wouldn't have expected him to remember to eat while he was worried. This should be threaded, either this or after Sarah leaves. Either way, there will be sibling bonding times, as she would've sat with him, while trying to quiet her own worry and wondering what Damon was doing ( ... )

Martha would be there, and she would be able to help her medically wise if that became necessary and Jeremy was so afraid that it would become necessary.
He thought that it would have to be necessary, because she just passed out, but Martha assured her again that she needed sleep, needed food. She'd passed out from complete exhaustion, and Jeremy had swallowed but nodded in understanding before he had to just wait.
There was all the pacing across the hallway, across his room.
There was nothing else to do, but he wanted to do somethingBAW, Elena. ;_; THIS SHOULD BE THREADED ( ... )

Sarah would not have wanted to go back home.
Even using the word for it feels like a betrayal. She doesn't have the best poker face but she has to start practicing if she's to get to the bottom of this, and if her father had returned early from his business trip to see her like that, he would've known she was there at Elizabeth's ( ... )

It's not like he would feel unsafe at her house, not that he knows why he should feel unsafe there. It's more that this place is as close to home that he has been able to find in Chicago. For that reason, he thinks it might help her too.
There are people around, and even if she doesn't see them, they can still sense they're there.
There's something very... very home about it, and he knows they have good security here. It's why Elena and he moved in in the first place, and he releases a breath, sliding a hand behind his neck as he sits there on the floor still. He reaches over to shut the journal ( ... )

They wouldn't live long enough to say the three of them were there and they knew what they were about, or rather, that Sonny and Damon did. Sarah still doesn't know who they are, only that that was an assassination, and there is a reason.
The fact she recognized one of them is going to haunt her ( ... )

Sarah has experienced natural disasters and she's seen the CLF in action and she's run away from monsters and other things that come with living in Chicago. If you live here, you are bound to face any and all of those things, likely within the same week, since there's never any slowing down.
But that level of gratuitous violence is something she'd never been confronted with in person. It was one thing to see a broadcast of the CLF, horrible that it was, like something out of a Rated R movie, and it's another to be there, to be standing only a few feet away as bullet after bullet after bullet is fired and it is killing your friend.
She is not letting herself think of that.
If it's all she thinks about, she might never step out of the door.
Sarah doesn't know how she is going to go back to school, how she is even going to go back home, kiss her father goodnight as she does every night he is home, say she loves him, hear he loves her too, when she knows, when this has happened, when she ( ... )

He tries not to imagine it, and he knows anything his head could come up with would be absolutely nothing like what actually happened out on that sidewalk that she had to view. He has heard that so many people have seen and been through so many different things here.
It's the closest that he has ever been.
Jeremy's seen monsters before, but he's always kept his distance because there was literally nothing he could do and people with weapons were stepping in to save others.
But he hasn't even been here long enough to witness one of Chicago's famous disasters that he has heard about. The plagues, earthquakes, a flooding storm, a snowstorm that covered the whole city for a week and killed anyone left out in it ( ... )

"Thank you," he says, small smile on his face though there isn't much happiness to be found since he's still concerned about her. Her friend just died, and it still wasn't long ago that they walked through the remains of it together.
He glances at her at the question and looks down. "It's just because you said that it hurt more, that when you... you were being a teenager it wasn't real. It was pretend and that hurt more, and I know that our friendship wasn't pretending, but that's what I was afraid of at first."
Jeremy could tell the Calling part wouldn't consider him a friend, doesn't have friends. He could tell that she only just recognized him, and there was a big difference in who she was before she passed out to who she is right now ( ... )
