>"Oh, Nikki. Thank goodness!"Colby gives Nikki a quick hug, but when she backs away she's still obviously a little concerned.
>"Are you gonna be okay? I'm so upset that Miss USA got her hands on you like that. I don't want anything like that to ever happen again, to any of us..... but I think Priscilla's gonna do what it takes to make sure it never does."[Like I could have. If only I'd known what I was capable of then.]
Colby shifts, a little uneasily, and puts a hand idly on the bed's sheets.
>"If you need to talk, I'd be happy to. Or if you need anything else, I'll make sure you get it. You've got a big match coming up yourself and if there's any way I can help, I will."She frowns.
>"And, um..... if Coco ever comes back again? How do you want us to handle that, if we find you again and you're not yourself?"
