Natali heard him sigh and was easily pulled into Cliff's arms. She buried her face in his chest. Crying softly. Feeling fingers running through her hair and stopped shaking as badly. She wasn't angry on any level. She was hurting because Anthony yelled at her and treated her like she was stupid. Like she really was a screw up. She already thought that because she hadn't had it easy once Anthony vanished all those years ago. He started talking and pulled her back to wipe her eyes. "He yelled at m-me...it feels like almost every male here has yelled at me." She wasn't kidding. A couple of days ago she encountered other vampire males who weren't happy with her being here. She hadn't told anyone about it but it made her feel unwanted. They didn't try and hurt her but they yelled at her to get the hell away from them...so she had. She listens as he talked. Nodding her head sadly as she bit her lower lip again.<br/><br/>Sniffling as the tears still try to fall. "I don't care he is angry. It hurt me that he yelled at me. I can handle him being angry. I just trust him so much...and...and...I keep getting yelled at by people..." She whimpers and hid her face again. "I don't hate him. I could never hate him. Even though he yelled at me and it scared me...I don't hate him." She says truthfully. Sniffling a bit. "I feel unwanted here. Some of Brandons friends made it verbally clear how unwanted here I was." She says. Tears trailing down here cheeks but much slower than before. Cliff would probably know the three...David, Jason, and Lucas....they were like the Prince's possee.<br/><br/>She nods her head. "I know he is. He has always been a good person. I am glad that much hasn't changed." She says softly. "Don't worry Cliff...I am not upset with him. I just feel like a screw up. I can't do much to help him or anyone else...I just wanted to feel like I was useful for something....for once." She says. Admitting that to him was hard. "I have never felt since Anthony vanished that I meant anything. That I was useful for anything." She says sadly. "I...I just want to feel like I can help out and be useful."
