Being held by Safrin reminded him of his mother, reminded him of hugs by the fireplace and made him feel safe. Her words made him smile with a teary sigh, Emmett at the moment unable to see how these days could be anything but dark and depressing, a place in his life he'd never want to return to.
"..Thank you. I hope..I hope tha' I see tha' one day." He whispered into her chest, squeezing his eyes tight shut. He wished he could stay here forever, could come back for a hug whenever he needed one (which was rather often, these days).
After a few more moments he pulled back. "..Can I come back here someday? Maybe...things'll be better then and I could tell you about it? Uh...do you like the vegetables I brought? I could bring somethin' else if you'd like it better."
Emmett
There'll be no value in the strength of walls that I have grown
There'll be no comfort in the shade of the shadows thrown
But I'd be yours if you'd be mine
There'll be no comfort in the shade of the shadows thrown
But I'd be yours if you'd be mine
