“Six!” she cried, a relieved smile appearing on her face. She gently took Jack’s arms from around her and got up as gently as she could, rushing over to give Six a hug, feeling so relieved that he looked just as he had left. “I was—I was so worried!” She held onto him tightly, letting the relief course through her like a balm.
He was back. He was okay. Thank goodness.
“Tsk,” Six clicked his tongue as he wrapped his arms around her gently, resting his temple against hers for a moment. “I told you I’d be back. I promised, after all.” he pointed out before pulling back, but beginning to guide her to the bed. He glanced at Jack. “Sorry if I upset her too badly.”
Jack smiled faintly, and shrugged his shoulders, before he pulled the blanket back for Katelynn as Six guided her back to the bed. “It’s your fault she cares about you so much.” he smiled faintly.
