Dex POV #3

So this is the part when Dex finds Lori when her mind is breaking. I don't really know why I decided to write it, I just knew exactly how I wanted him to be acting so... enjoy!

I’m walking to lunch when I see Lori, rocking back and forth on a bench in a hallway. She shouldn’t be here. She looks so pale.
“Lori? What are you doing out here?” I sit down next to her, and notice that she’s crying.
“My fault. My fault. My fault.”
“What does that mean? Lori?!”
“My fault. My fault. My fault.” She’s sobbing at this point. Suddenly she goes quiet. Then she starts thrashing around. She falls on the floor and keeps flailing around.
“LORI! WHAT-” Then I remember. The last time I saw anyone act like that was when Alden… I start running. The panic gets worse and worse and I run faster and faster. Sophie is her only hope. I’m the only one who knows that she’s there. I sprint into the cafeteria, and go directly to the table we normally sit at. “SophieIthinkLori’smindisbreaking!” She goes pale.
“What?!”
“Follow me! You have to help her!” I don’t stop. I run back to where we were before. Lori’s still there, thrashing around on the ground. Everyone at our table followed us, and quite a few others. Some look like they might scream. Or puke. Or faint. Or all of those.
“Dex, go get Magnate Leto. I’m going to start healing her.” I don’t question her orders. I just run. I arrive at his office, and don’t even knock.
“Mr. Dizznee, what-” Magnate Leto begins before I cut him off.
“Lori’s mind is breaking. I already got Sophie, and she’s trying to heal her. She told me to get you, so let’s go!” He pales and stands up from behind his desk. I run back with him on my heels. When we arrive back at the scene, Sophie has her fingers on Lori’s temples, and her eyes closed. Fitz, Biana, Marella, and Tam are all holding her limbs down so she doesn’t kick
Sophie. I get down on the floor with all of them, when everyone holding her hands and feet share a look that says that she isn’t fighting anymore. Were we too late? A second later, Lori opens her eyes.
“LORI!” Sophie says, pulling her into a giant hug.
“Wh- what happened?” Lori asks.
“Your mind broke.” Sophie says, pulling away. “I don’t know exactly what caused it, but if Dex hadn’t found me in the lunch room…”
“Are you ok now?” I ask. I really hope she’s ok. But she looks so overwhelmed.
“I- I don’t know.” She says. It breaks my heart.
“We should take you to the healing center.” Sophie says. Everyone who was on the ground stands up, but Lori can’t seem to stand on her own. I catch her before she falls, then I try to help her walk. And so do like five other people. After about a minute of us trying to help her walk, Fitz just picks her up and carries her to the healing center. I hope she’ll be ok. She has to be. I have to tell her that I like her. She’ll be ok, right?
