Charles just held her, his arms making her feel safe and warm.
He did not say anything and did not ask any questions. He just held her. After what seemed like forever, Noelle looked up at him. She noticed his lip was hurt and touched it gently. "Are you okay?" Charles looked at her with soft eyes and a small smile. He held her hand and shook his head. "I'm fine." Noelle gave him a small smile. "Why aren't you askingwhat happened?"
