She finally turns away. Not out of fear, but because of guilt, because of that sorrow that she cannot figure out. Her ears push back down into her hair as she murmurs in that quiet voice again that is evident of how pained she is, "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you. I only wanted to help you."
After she says this she starts to rise very unsteadily to her feet, and it's obvious how much trouble she's having attempting to find and hold her balance. Her body shivers slightly but not from the cold; something deeper, something more profound. The desire to touch him again pulls at her but she restrains herself.
"I'm sorry Vincent."
She forces herself backwards, taking uneasy steps away from him, putting distance between them. She'd been aware that she had not really been wanted, but it had become worse. Something had come over her and she couldn't stand it any longer; it was growing, consuming her mind, her heart, her senses. It was becoming even more difficult to manage to do even the simplest things, of which right now was walking.
"I'm sorry." She said it again with a shake of her head before finally turning around and trying to force herself to run away, back to her own sanctuary, but all she can manage is a very half-hearted gallop that has her stumbling over everything in her path, including her own feet.
