"If he discovers this place..."
Noel opened each package carefully as he said," AJ won't come, Amy. He won't be looking for you."
As he passed a box of the casserole he'd just bought, he spoke softly. Quietly, Emilia sat down and accepted the box of food that Noel passed her.
Amy also took the box he passed before placing it on her lap and turning her attention to the television.
Sighing, Noel explained," Look, he wanted to come. But I've told him that you need the space. For now, he knows that you are safe and that is enough for him. I don't know how long he will be kept at bay, but for now, he has stopped his search."
"Thanks, Noel. For everything."
"Amy, I've considered you a friend. So there is no need for thanks. Now, eat. Or else I will report back to him that you are starving yourself. And then we'll see him turned the world upside down looking for you."
