[It's hard to imagine a time before she knew him. But of course she had, they had only met a couple of months ago. She can still remember meeting him on Christmas night, and how he had made her sadness feel like a distant memory. And here he is now, constantly saving her and calling her Queen Clara and making her feel special.
She stares up at him with wide, watery eyes. Her lower lip trembles. the way he speaks, he must come from a terrible place with a lack of love and compassion. It's no matter, she'll give him all that he needs here. Because he's gone and embedded himself in her heart, and made himself essential to her.
Her lip continues to tremble, even as she puts a smile on her face. And from her position in a heap on the ground she launches herself forward, tackling him in as tight of a hug as she can manage. She's so much smaller than he is that there's no real risk of him being toppled over.]
How could I ever be afraid of someone as wonderful as you are?
[Her words are muffled as she presses her face into the curve of his neck, letting her tears fall onto him as she both seeks and gives comfort with her embrace.]
