"And I promise no dropping your baby," he promised, craddling him against his body as he stood and waited for her. "Right, come on then it's not far." Now of course he just had to work out how exactly how to tell her the fact they were stuck here, and about the demons and everything else. Maybe the library hadn't been such a bad idea after all.
