David looked to see Erin walk into the gym. He would have left, but she told him to wait. So he lied there and waited. He looked to see her take ahold of his hands and pull him to sit up. He then felt her hug him, and this just brought tears to his eyes. Nobody has ever comforted him before on the matter of a fight. He was always left alone. The tears formed in his eyes, sliding down his cheeks. His hands were shaking, trying to sign, but it was just broken sign right now. He lowered his head, breaking eye contact. "I'm sorry.." he finally signed to her. "They tried to throw me in the Fountain... I.. I didn't want to fight them but I had to..." He didn't want to tell her that he could not swim, that he was afraid of the water. "I... I had no choice.." he finished, lowering his head, spilling tears in front of Erin.
