Evanne was happy and relieved that Noah didn't pull away. She sighed and slowly pulled away to look at him. She looked down into his face, gently stroke his hair. She listened to him. She hadn't expected this. Her mouth fell open a little as she watched him. Nodding slowly, she understood what he was saying. "O-Okay... We can deal with this... everything will be fine. They won't do anything to jeopardize their stay, even Robert." She assured him. "Soon the people of Dust will see how helpful they can be. Thank you for doing that... I love you for protecting them, but we never have to speak about this again." She promised him. She leaned down and kissed his lips affectionately, hoping to comfort him and ease his guilt.
The blonde pulled away slowly to look down at him. She stroked his hair, smiling at him. "I hope you realise you are the savior this town. You're not just a leader... you would do anything to protect us." She smiled at him. She kissed his forehead gently. He had so much to worry about. He was always looking out for everyone else but did he ever just do things for himself? She wasn't so sure. Was the first time he had something for himself been when they were together? She wasn't sure, but she had a feeling that might be the truth.
She made a silent promise that she would do whatever she could do to make his life a happy one. She'd take care of their daughter and make him happy. The one thing she was positive about was the fact that they could both be truly happy with each other. They could finally be a family.
"Do you like her name?" She asked him. She shifted and lowered herself down beside him, so she was laying beside him on the edge of the cot. She rested her head on his unharmed shoulder. She placed her hand on his chest, her fingertips running across his skin. "I never told anyone, but her middle name is your mother's... I think she would have loved Evelyn... and she had her eyes... She told him, closing her eyes. It was an amazing feeling to finally open up to him, letting him know everything.
Evanne knew that she had made the right decision in coming back. She just wished she had stayed then she could have been with Noah that much longer. "I'll never keep another thing from you again. Anything you want to know... I'll tell you."
Ginny was trying to prove to this boy that they were nice people. She knew they needed to win people over. "Your family won't much appreciate your comin' to strangers' houses. Ever thoughta that?" She shot her brother a warning look. It was like he wanted them not to be able to stay there. He seemed to cool off a little from her look. She sighed, giving him a half-smile in apology.
"Yeah, I know. The folks here don't take too kindly to newcomers. Nothing new. There's a tanner here just by Beau Rogers'. You could try asking them. Mrs. Rogers is one of those traditional ones, but the Mr. Rogers could help see you through. As for tires, well..." The boy said.
Ginny gave him a sympathetic smile. "That's okay. I plan on proving myself, and my family, to this town. I'm sure more people will come around." She smiled at him. "Oh good! I understand she'll be wary but hopefully she'll be willing to make some sort of deal or trade." She told him, pushing some hair behind her ear.
Ginny sighed when Rob once again tried to challenge the boy. "Yes, I understand but hopefully we can gain some." She smiled at him and nodded. "It's not your fault, but thank you. We appreciate you walking us home." She took the wet flannel and rubbed it against her neck, thanking her brother. She sighed when she walked outside but she hoped he could cool down. "Do your shoes fit? Is it just wear and tear and holes or do you need larger ones?" She asked the boy sweetly. She hoped that if people saw they were willing to help other people, they'd be more willing to trust and help them.
"If it's just the fit as well as the wear and tear, I could just make some from scratch for you." The brunette offered.
