Emmett had almost turned to leave again, not sure he had the patience to stand around and wait for the boy to find his words. He paused when he did speak, and took a moment himself to consider if he should answer. "Alright. Walk with me, I'm not standing around here." He muttered, turning to...

Emmett blinked back hot tears that were slowly forming from the pain in his head, distorting his vision of the alley and his attacker.
