Nathan smiled and ran a large hand through her hair as he cleared his throat, not use to apologizing. “I…I’m sorry copy cat. I didn’t…mean to act that way. If am sorry if I hurt you.” He murmured, closing his gray eyes and taking a deep breath. Well that wasn’t so hard. His hand froze in his younger twin hair as the last sad image of his dying younger sister flashed behind his eyes lids. Snapping his eyes open with a gasp he almost ripped his hand away from the girls head.<br/><br/>Was he even worthy of touching his sister when he let the other down? What if he was unable to protect her like he wasn’t able to protect the other? Pulling his hand away he pulled the young girl against his chest, hugging her tightly.  Pressing a fatherly kiss to the girls head he sighed. “I want you to know I love you…no matter what happens…you got me?” He whispered, tightening he hold on the girls small body. How was he going to protect her when he couldn’t even protect Mandy?<br/><br/>
