Marta headed downstairs with Lily. She understood why Sterling didn't want to stay up there. She didn't really want to stay with the adults either, but wanted to say goodbye to Ricky. She didn't know if she'd be able to stay awake long. She was just emotionally exhausted. She found Sterling again and leaned against her in a hug. "Sorry - I've been a very absent friend today," she gave Sterling a small smile. "And I think I need to lay down for a bit. It's been a very emotional day for me."
She rested her head briefly on Sterling's shoulder, a sign that she was glad to see her today before she headed to Liv and told her she was taking Lily into Nox's room and was gonna rest in there too. Mostly she just wanted Liv to know where Lily was. If anyone wanted to join in thy were welcome to. Marta then entered Nox's room followed by Splash.
The only other person in the room was Liam and Marta gave him a nod, acknowledging he was there. She moved quietly as Splash found an unobtrusive corner to lay down in. Marta climbed on the bed carefully, mindful of the infant she carried. She gave Lily a kiss on the forehead and set her down on Nox's chest as Hayden had instructed. Lily seemed to naturally lay there, as if it was just as comfortable for her as it was for her father. Marta then leaned down, whispering in Nox's ear. "Thank you."
Marta lay down on the bed giving space between her and Nox. She made sure that she didn't block Liam's sight. It seemed like he wanted to keep an eye on Nox. As exhausted as she was she didn't fall asleep right away, her mind was running at a million miles an hour. She kept her eyes on Lily, at least knowing that if Lily needed something, she would be here to take care of it. Briefly Marta wondered if it was her fault that Nox had gotten hurt. If she hadn't smelled blood...she pushed the thought away. She hadn't done anything wrong. In time, Marta would fall asleep, but for now, sleep alluded her.
