His eyes glistened with the ghost of his past, a past he didn't remember, if he did he didn't share. He held onto my arms like I would fall back into insane babbling again if he didn't. I felt so much safer when he was there, I know I was no safer then I was without him but with him there... I didn't feel so alone.
He squeezed my upper arms tightly, like he was reassuring me of a pain he thought I was feeling. Or maybe he was reassuring himself. I couldn't tell. He dropped his eyes as he gathered a breath into his lungs, a ghostly silence suddenly taking over the Glade.
"Everything here was bad... Until you came up through that box. I am here to protect you, you... You give me a sense of purpose when I didn't have one before"
