Still looking unsure, Ele slowly reached out and took the holster in her hands. Even though the gun was small, there was still quite a weight to it. Cautiously, Ele went to where she had put her clothes and gingerly set the weapon down on top of them. Once her hands were free, Ele turned and went back to Tyler and hugged him tightly, "Thank you." She said emotionally, her voice thick with tears. They had only just started getting to know one another, but Tyler was making sure Ele was safe and taken care of. He was equipping her to be stronger. "I like you a lot." The words were quiet, but Ele said them, but she meant something a lot deeper and more meaningful."
