He doesn't say another word. He holds onto her and carries her to the living room. Settling on a chair he keeps his hold on her strong and sure as she clings to him.

His palm begins a slow up and down over her back and all he wants to do now is be a presence for her. To let her know he's here, that he knows now, and he isn't going anywhere or letting anything else happen to her.

She's safe now. She's safe.
