Danni reached the balcony and rested on the bar, letting her head drop as she took in a deep breath. She felt like she was going crazy. All this paranoia over Luke, why did she feel so scared of him destroying her life once again? As much as she knew that the city was now a different place from when the Chosen were here, she still had this irrational fear that her world would come crashing down around her once more. Luke had already taken her from someone she loved once, what was to stop him from doing it again? Okay, so the scenario was different, she was surrounded by her tribe, but at the same time she felt like maybe she didn't belong. MAybe that was another aspect to her paranoia, but as she recalled she hadn't exactly been welcomed with open arms the first time she arrived at the Mall. Then again, with Ebony and Lex around, who would ever feel entirely comfortable?
Looking on the floor she found the watering can, half full with water, and thought perhaps she should check on whether the herbs needed watering. She felt the soil; certain sections were still damp, but others were drying up. She sprinkled a little water on the dry sections, hoping that she wasn't drowning her babies. She wanted so bad for the herb garden to be a success. In some way she saw it as a metaphor for herself and Moon. They had planted it together, and as it flourished she hoped so would their relationship. If the plants were to die off it certainly would not be a very good omen.
