Alexis
Alexis turned her head back around when Elias moved towards the doctor. Sophie sat up in her bed a bit. Elias put the blustering doctor in his place while defending Alexis' honor and the Grimm name. His statements of the power that the family wielded made Alexis smirk a little. Jean's jaw dropped to the floor in shock at first. When the door closed on the red faced doctor Alexis' mouth was covered and Jean burst into a fit of giggles.
Sophie had a headache and she was enjoying Elias' speech but her head was hurting. Worrying about her partner she wasn't sure if he was okay or if the entire thing had been a setup for them both. Was he alive? Did he even know she was on her way to see him?
Alexis didn't know what to say to Elias so she wrapped her arms around his neck hugged him and kissed his cheek. She stumbled over her words a little. "Thank you cousin." She felt so restricted when they were in a public setting. To everyone else he was her cousin and nothing else. To her, he was her entire world. She needed a little time to herself. She felt like she might burst. It had been a rough day already. She walked over to the door and opened it and left the room. Alexis walked into her room and leaned out of the window taking in some fresh air.
She had to get her head on straight. She was worried about their future as hunters, did she even have the right to make that promise? Her stomach was in knots. She knew if she were to have to marry someone else she would not survive her own wedding night. She had to find a way to gain control of her own future and her own fortune. She hadn't bothered to close her door when she had entered it and she paid no mind to those passing by her room. To anyone else she looked incredibly sad sitting at her window.
