Specs smiled reassuringly, taking her hands in his. "It'll get better, I swear," he said as he looked deeply into her eyes. "This is nothin', you'll get over it and next thing you know, you'll be working and reading again. And I'll be here every step of the way."

"It's alright, you don't need to if you don't want to," he said reassuringly. Specs had been patiently humming a tune that he heard a couple newsies singing while Tag attempted to sleep. "I can run to the house and grab a book and read it to you. How does that sound?"

He hated leaving her when she wasn't feeling well. Reading can wait another day.
