"Anthony has a lot of light to give, even if he doesn't always think so. I'm sure you two will be happy."
Mr. Fell's newly adopted hand was given a squeeze before she turned to look at the empty place where Alec had been sitting. Poor Alec... Evelyn made the greatest of efforts not to sigh. If only all problems were so easily confronted. But now that many of her fears had been put to rest she made the attempt to smile, just to calm poor Fell's nerves a little.
"Don't worry, he will be back." She nodded towards the suitcase which was sitting upright near the foot of the bed. "We have his underwear."

"Alec."
He had something for him too... A new mystery that Anthony had fished out of the book section. This was pulled out of a pocket and pressed into his cousin's hands.
"How bad is it? Do they hate me?? UGH! There is too much going on at once!"
Anthony stomped his foot and turned in a circle as the nervous energy had to come out some how.
