Blake McCarthy
Ginn's House
~ Sutton, Dublin ~
Blake felt like she could breathe again once Isabella had accepted her words and left. The entire house was surely feeling the tenseness of the situation and the woman knew that was the last thing everyone in it needed, including Isabella herself. Once she was gone and Blake heard the door close, she let out a long exhale and moved to run a hand through her hair. Making sure that Elena was in good hands, Blake watched as Olivier worked on Adam from a distance. The relief in her eyes was slightly jaded by the anger she felt over what that woman had said to her boyfriend. Ex-lover or not, whoever Adam used to be was long gone and Blake only knew the man she had been friends with consistently over the years and now lovers. It angered her that Isabella could make such accusations when Adam was clearly just as distraught as she was, and he had gone to great lengths to get his daughter back, as any good parent would do.

Blake followed Adam's eyes to Elena, the man checking to see if she was okay before his eyes turned to her. He offered her a weak smile and Blake returned it before walking forward to be next to his bedside. The man started to apologize, saying that this was the last thing she needed but she just shook her head slowly, continuing to do so as he went on. "Adam Harper, you take those words back. You hear me?" The blonde said, moving to take a seat next to his bedside so that she could carefully lean closer to him, her lips gently kissing his. "That woman...Isabella? Right? She knows the man you used to be, whoever he was is long gone." She murmured, her face close to his as she reached up to move some hair from his forehead.
"Elena has the best dad in the world. Not many would go in blindly to save their kid, believe it or not. But you went in, you got her and you managed to get out in...well...somewhat one piece." Blake said, looking over him again as she let out a breathless laugh. "Sure she could have had a Finn or a George, but I think that would have been shocking considering just how gay they are." Her teasing tone lacked the proper strength and humor she normally had with him, just so relieved and worried to see him in the condition he was in. "As for me...you promised to always make it back to me, and you did. That in my book, means you deserve me far more than you realize, luv." Blake hummed.
"Elena and I are both very lucky to have you. And while she can't speak up to agree, I know she thinks the same as me." Her smile came a little more natural now, allowing herself to just gently touch his arm, avoiding any cuts or scrapes. He was alive and he had made it back. Exactly as he had promised. "I love you, Adam. And no amount of batshit crazy ex is going to keep me from feeling that way about you. We were all young and dumb once, if people continue to blame you for the mistakes you made years ago...that's their problem." Blake turned to look at Elena's sleeping form a moment, smiling lightly.
"Your beautiful daughter over there was definitely not a mistake. And if I'm being honest, Isabella was in the wrong for not telling you. I think she robbed you of what could have been...but now, you deserve to make up for lost time because you are an amazing father." Tears burned her eyes as she cleared her throat, "Thank you...for making it home to me."
