Nathan's brow furrowed. He looked at Crystal and said, "How is it that you're afraid of me, but you weren't afraid of the old Davis? He had a gun pointed at your head, but you didn't even blink! I don't even know if that was bravery or stupidity!"
Crystal gave him an innocent look, smiled, and said, "Didn't I have you beside me?" Naturally, Nathan didn't know why Crystal was smiling or what she was talking about. He knitted his eyebrows and complained: "Be serious!"
"I am being serious," Crystal said. "If you weren't there with me, I would have ignored him and said nothing."
Nathan's face lit up when he heard that. "You see!" he exclaimed. "You need me. Life would be impossible for you if I weren't by your side, so you had better stick by my side!"
