She put her hand in her pocket then pulled it back out. "I believe I have something of yours." Holding her hand out she opened it up so he could see what was in it.
He did want it back right?
Blink.
.... a big smile broke over West's face. Full beam smile even. He sure DID want it back, and it meant so much that she had kept her word, and that she knew what it meant to him, because it was a whole huge thing. His back straightened and his shoulders lifted, but West didn't say too much, he was a bit overwhelmed really, so it was easiest to just be quiet and put all the meaning and genuine thanks and pleasure and pride into two simple words.
"Thank you."
For everything, really.
