Reggie hugged her tight as she crawled into his lap.  He knew that she must be scared, and he wanted to make that fear go away. How dare anyone put her in that kind of state!  When she started talking he looked at her face.  Strength? He smiled at her, "Jas, I don't think you're weak. I think you're scared.  You no longer have powers, and you're fully human again.  It's all too much for one person to handle. Especially when there's someone after them!  I get that.  I don't think you're weak.  In fact, I bet that if we had to face off with him again, you'd stand firm and strong."<br/><br/>He hoped that his words calmed her.  Then she thanked him. He was a little surprised at the thanks, "I will never leave you. You're my girl remember?"  When she placed her lips on his, he felt his stomach flutter again.<br/><br/>The tears made the kiss salty, but he didn't care.  He pulled away her from kiss and wiped the tears away from her cheeks, "I will always be here for you Jas.  No matter what." He kissed the top of her head.
