There they were, rising up, the spell broken and drawing to a close this little sanctuary in the wake of what could have been a disaster. Meridith had a lot to sort through and figure out and she wasn't sure she'd be able to do that in the company of another person. But, she was also equally sure that it would have gone a lot worse if she hadn't had Lyra to help her through the moments leading in.
Still, paid for water? What an insane notion! Paris might not have been all it was cracked up to be.
She replied, "Ah guess it will be my turn to get the next ones then right?"
As Lyra rose up and bowed and offered her one last smile, Meridith found herself stepping forward and pulling her arms around Lyra in a tight and abrupt hug surprising perhaps herself as much as maybe Lyra. She lingered there for a moment if allowed.
"Be safe, alright?"
And released her and stepped back. There was a lot more she thought she might have said but it would have to do for now. Until we meet again.
