Lana'd taken to wandering by room 306 randomly a couple of times a day. Just to see, you know?

When she thought she saw a light on, she knocked lightly on the door.

Lana came in and just took a moment to stand and drink him in. "You're home," she said with a smile. "God, I'm glad to see you."

"It's good to be back," Chris said, though his smile didn't quite reach his eyes.

"Are you... Is everything all right?" Lana asked carefully.

Chris shrugged. "It was a weird week," he said.

She crossed towards him slowly. "Anything I can do to help," she asked, reaching out to touch his arm lightly - if he'd let her.

He didn't pull away, but he didn't move closer either. "Not really," he said. "It's just... family stuff that I have to deal with."

He felt vaguely uncomfortable talking to Lana about it given her own family situation.

She bit her lip and pulled her hand back slowly. "Oh. I'm sorry. Not a good visit then?"

"It was okay," Chris said. "Very... enlightening. Just... awkward."

"I'm so sorry," she said. "I wish there was something I could do to help."

"I know. I just need some time to figure it all out," Chris said.

"Okay," Lana said quietly. "Well, um... I can just let you be if you'd like. You can come find me when you're ready?"

"I'm sorry," Chris said. "But I don't want to dump my family issues on you."

She bit her lip, hesitating, then decided it couldn't hurt to be honest. "Chris," she said gently. "I love you. You wouldn't be dumping anything on me. I'd be glad to listen. But if you need your space, I'm also glad to leave. Or just sit her quietly with you. Or whatever you need."

"I don't know what I need," Chris said. "But you told me that you'd be happy if you found out your parents weren't really dead. And I'm still not sure how I feel about all of this."
