Chapter Seventeen: Vengeance
To his consternation the tears came back with a vengeance and he found himself pulling her back in to his arms and holding her shaking form. She held on to him like he was her only lifeline.
He began to stroke her hair, and murmur soothing words in to her ears. He felt at a loss. He wasn't used to being the one who gave comfort. He was much more skilled at pushing buttons, and knowing exactly what to say in order to hurt.
She stopped crying, but continued to hold on to him, and he didn't push her away.
