Still, things felt alright in her arms, and that was something he needed right now. None of this was okay, but he was able to forget that for a few moments that the world was like this. Standing up, and bringing Andy up along with him, he rested his head on her shoulder. "[color=4286f4]Thank you Andy. I've got your back, always.[/color]" He meant it too, by everything he stood for, he would never allow Andy to come to harm, he'd sooner die than lose another he loved. Pulling away from her, he said, albeit a little numbly, "[color=4286f4]Let's get back to the others, they have to be worried about us.[/color]" He smiled at her, trying to find some peace in where they were now. A part of him wondered if they had to go on quests after this, or if they could end things after this, live out life at camp, and stay safe. A retirement like that sounded nice to him, he wanted people around him to stop being in danger, and he wanted to be able to relax for awhile. Before he stepped out of the room though, he slipped his hand over hers, and took her hand in his. He gave her a slight smile. He didn't want to be away from her right now, it felt safe when they were together.
