Even the hard swallow didn't save him from the sudden rush of emotion that overwhelmed him, and in an instant he found his head in his hands and his body trembling with tears he hadn't known he was keeping in.
Oh. Oh sweet Merlin, NO! He was crying? Had she broken him? She felt rather flaily and such. Taking a deep, yet shakey, breathe she scooted herself up under the arm she had just had her faced buried in. Taking her hands she placed them on top of his very gently.

"Please don't cry. You're breaking my heart," she said through sobs. Tears streamed carelessly down her face now and her small frame shook as well. Scooting closer still she removed her hands from his and just lay her head against him and cried softly.

"You promise me I won't lose you forever?" she whispered. It came from nowhere... she had not expected herself to be so vulnerable again. But... he was her BEST FRIEND. She did not want to lose him. To anyone, for any reason.
