Toby hugged Ashley tightly and held her close as she cried. He never liked the sound of a girl crying, it pulled at his heart strings and made him feel depressed. Then again, that was probably the chivalry that his father programmed into him. He always taught him to be sensitive towards others and not to get detached, even when it seemed to be the most appropriate thing to do. Toby ignored her comment about him being an idiot, though the next part hit home the most.<br/><br/>"I bet you never even let yourself cry." she had said. Granted this was true, Toby always did his best not to cry, the last time being when he put a bullet in his father's skull. Even those tears left him as quickly as they appeared. Toby held Ashley close and spoke again.<br/><br/>"You can help me, once you have been helped...for now, just let it out. I'm right here." he said, his voice taking on a more sensitive tone than he was accustomed to. He thought it sounded odd coming out of his mouth, but however unusual it felt he meant every word. He would wait for her to be helped before he would take help himself.<br/><br/>Toby listened to the sounds of Ashley's sobbing and held her close to him, doing his best not to lose it.
