"Faye!" Yves practically screams at the minor collision, as if a switch flipped and brought her back to her senses, and she immediately pulls Faye into a hug, taking the shorter girl off of her feet. It kinda hurts...
"I've been looking all over for you...! I- um, sorry, I," Her grip relaxes a little, and her arms freeze up as she sets Faye back down. Her hair, and her clothes, for that matter, are wet, "Are you okay? What's wrong? Was it something I did?"

Faye made a sound somewhere between a "Gah!" and an "Ack!" as she was hoisted off her feet. She tried her best to return the hug, and took a deep breath once on the ground again.
"... Sorry. I'm fine. I was, uh, in the ferris wheel. Nothing's wrong, I just needed somewhere to think..."

“You… you haven’t been the same, recently, either, huh? I’m so horrible, I should’ve said something earlier… you probably don’t even want to see me right now…”

"That's not true..." Faye sighed, stepping forward and holding the other girl's hand in an attempt to calm her down. "I just needed some time alone. Well, with Jack, but..."

Yves squeezes Faye’s hands back, weakly, her hands shaking and twitching worse than Faye’s seen them in all the time the two have spent together.
“I’m so glad you’re here… and that I didn’t ruin your you time…! I ruin everything- but you’re okay! You’re here. You’re with me…”

"Yves..." Faye muttered, awkwardly trying the pull the much taller girl into a hug. "It's okay. You don't ruin anything. You... You've only made me happier and happier ever since I met you..."

A massive sob wracks Yves’s body as she all but collapses onto Faye. Her blunt nails dig into the back of Faye’s clothes and she whimpers into the shorter girl’s hair.
“I- I’m so…” Her voice breaks, “I was so afraid. I was so worried, I thought getting in a cold shower was supposed to help, but that didn’t do anything and then I couldn’t find you and-“

"It's okay! I'm. I'm here, now..." Faye answered, wrapping her arms around Yves. "... It'll be okay. I'm..."

“I… I realized.” Yves starts, trying to take a deep breath and failing, “Something. We’ve been in here so long, in all these places, that… it’s grandma’s birthday, today. Or yesterday, because of the loop we’re stuck in, I don’t know- but,”
She pauses, hugging Faye tighter, “It was her birthday, and I’m in here, and… I don’t even know if she’s alive.”

Faye froze in Yves' arms, even her breathing seeming to stop for a moment. "... Sorry. I'm sorry..."

Yves chokes back a weak noise, shivering, and hiccuping faintly against Faye’s shoulder.
“She… she’s been struggling to hold on, for so long. I- I signed up for the boarding school so I wouldn’t… be any more of a burden, on my grandpa. He doesn’t need to juggle taking care of the store, and Nana, and, well. Me. But- b-but now I’m trapped here, instead of being with them, I don’t know if Nana’s still here, but I, she only had a couple months left… I just, I don’t know what to do! How to be okay now that Nana’s gone, or what I’m gonna do if something happens to you-“
She gently wraps her fingers around one of Faye’s arms, squeezing softly, “I’m so afraid of losing you, too.”
