Tony's POV

Now that Willow has been found people are going to bring her back home where she belongs. I can't wait to hold her in my arms again. When I see her again I'm going to do everything that I can to make her feel safe again. I don't care how long it takes for her to feel safe again I'm just going to be there for her. I missed the way that she would dance around my work shop to her favorite song. I have a feeling that won't happen again for a while. I don't know what happened to her out there. The one thing that I'm sure of is that she's probably traumatized because of it. She may not want to talk about it and that's fine. She may never want to talk about it and I'm okay with that.

I just want t0 help her in any way that I can, she's my entire world. She's probably not the same as she used to be when she left for her fashion show. I don't know what happened before she was taken and it was probably traumatic for her. As long as she is safe and healthy that's all that matters.

I saw a black car pull up to the building and a swarm of photographers immediately started to try and take pictures. Happy had to push through the crowd just to get her into the building. I wanted to hug her but I didn't want to scare her. That's the last thing that I wanted was for to be scared when she just got back. I noticed that she had on sunglasses and was eating ice cream. I wish I could say that was normal for her but it really isn't. I took one look at her and I could tell that she feels broken on the inside. She wasn't smiling anymore. I knew in that moment something was wrong. I knew that she would never be the same person she used to be.

I got her some of her favorite things to help feel more at home again. I didn't put up anything or get balloons because I had a feeling that popping them would bring back memories. I didn't want t0 bring back memories of what happened to her. The last thing I want is for her to relive everything that happened to her. I could never do that to her, I would never forgive myself if I did that to her. I care about her so much that I don't want her to feel scared or out of place. I want her to feel like she belongs here again, because this is her home and it always will be.

"Hey jellybean, I'm glad you're home and safe. Do you want to come and see some of the things that I got for you? If not that's fine. We can always watch a movie together or if you want to do something else that's fine too. We can do whatever you want to do."

"I need a shower."

"That's fine. Do you want help or would you rather be alone?"

"It's whatever."

"Okay. I uh got you a journal in case you want to write something down about how you're feeling. You don't have to use it. There's no need for you to feel pressured about anything."

"I don't care what you do with that stupid journal I just don't want to see it."

"Okay, I can return it. I also got you some of your favorite foods that you like. I can make something if you want a homemade meal. Or we can order something from your favorite restaurant. I can have happy pick it up."
