"Okay, home."

He nodded, agreeing with her. Home would be best. He looked around, up and down the alley to make sure that no one else had appeared to take the first man's place, and then seemed to come to a decision. He took a step back from her, and wriggled out of his jacket. It was warm from his body, and had a hood that'd keep her hair dryer. The last thing he wanted and the last thing she needed was to go into shock.

"I'll take you there. Where do you live?"

Peter asked softly, careful not to spook her anymore as he put his jacket around her. He stood back and watched her. She looked like she was definitely from one of the wealthier families around town. Events like this weren't uncommon, but he wouldn't be surprised if her sheltered upbringing made it all that much worse for her. He looked up at the sky. The rain was still falling and soaking his now bare head, not that he really minded. Peter shifted from foot too foot, uncertain as to how she would react to him now.
