Chase continued to rub her back waiting for the tears to subside, he heard her mumble a thank you he sighed a little.  She did not have to thank him, he was doing what he knew to be right.  He knew he might have a tough fight, but he would do anything to keep that monster from hurting this beautiful creature ever again.  He also knew he would do anything in his power to make this beautiful creature his.<br/><br/>He could not remember the last time he ever had to comfort any one but his mother, and his mother was probably the reason he was so protective especially after the way he treated her.<br/><br/>"I know he is your father and you are suppose to love him, but I am sorry he treated you that way."  Chase kissed her forehead.  "I promise you I may not be the nicest person during practice, but here in our room I will try to be a gentleman, even though I am not perfect."
