He saw me, saw my hand. With one last ditch effort, he snatched a branch with his good arm and reached up for my hand with his bad one. I touched him, felt the heat flare into my palm. It shocked and startled me, even now, but I clenched my hand into a fist and squeezed his hand in mine.

Clamping my eyes shut, too scared to look, I pulled. Hard. Harder than I ever thought I'd pulled anything before.

Evan's shoulder popped; I felt it. My eyes opened, shocked, and I gasped aloud. I'd meant to help him but I'd hurt him even more. I couldn't bear to look, didn't want to see the others descend upon him in bloodthirsty panic. And yet I didn't want to never see him again, either. I wanted to hold his hand and feel his warmth. I wanted him to touch my cheek and smile at me and talk to me as if I was just a regular person again.

I wanted it so badly it hurt. Unlike physical pain, this pain wasn't dulled.

Dumbfounded, scared and panicked, eyes wide and fearful, I watched as Evan scrambled up the tree easily and leaped onto the top of the wall. He sat down next to me, legs dangling over the sides, while the others below us tried to grab his feet.

I could have done it if I had some time, but, you know?" He offered a curt nod to the ground and the others snatching for his boots. "Your way was much quicker."

"Oh," I said. "You're welcome."

Evan grabbed his crossbow and quiver and strapped them to his back again, then twisted around and jumped off the wall into the alleyway below. Standing patiently and waiting for me, he held out his arms as if to catch me.

"I'm not letting you catch me," I said.

He laughed. "That might be for the best."

I jumped fine and landed beside him.

"Do you have a place to stay?" he asked.

I blinked at him, eyes hazy. "What do you mean?"

"I don't actually know how that works. I assume you go somewhere for the night, though? Or just whenever? I'm not sure. Do you have a home or, uh... do you wander around the city?"

"Oh," I said. "Yes. There's a house outside the city in the forest. It's off a side road. I usually go there. It's not too far away and it's quiet and nice. I..." I paused because I didn't want to say this to him, but I knew I had to. "I should go now, then. It was nice meeting--"

He stopped me. "I'll walk you home." Taking my hand in his, offering me his warmth once more, he smiled. "It's
