…s-stay away from her. stay away from us!
*empty threat, oh god is it, but he begins to pull her with him, away from psycho*

*jack keeps going until he knows they’re far, far from the man before he wraps his arms around Katelynn, pulling her into him, rocking her as he does* its ok, its ok, hes gone, hes gone…
