She kissed him back not wanting to let him go but she knew that she had to. "I have to, I must go. You don't have to worry about him, I promise you he won't hurt me. You won't lose me to him, I swear. But if I stay here and something happens to my sister... I'll be nothing but an empty shell, and that will hurt you a lot more than anything else ever could. All I ask is that you have faith in me, have faith that I can do this and come back home to you." She met his gaze but looked away quickly. "I'm sorry." She kissed him again and ran out of the room, trying to hold back tears that threatened to show.
