The Rescue (draft)  by AidansMommy1

As he arrived, her skin was blue and frozen.  He layed her on the couch, chizled the frozen clothes from her body and covered her with the warmth of thick fluffy blankets.  As she lie there trying to raise her body tempature, he was busy making her some hot cocoa and soup to give to her when she woke.  He sat beside her staring at her beautiful scared face, as if it was frozen that way when she collapsed. 

When she awoke, she was dazed and confused.  She lost all sense of where she was and where she was going.  She was so weak but managed to jump when she was her hero infront of her.  Still not realizing he has saved her, she sat still on the couch. 

"My name is Caleb."  Spoke a raspy voice.  "I found you  in the cold and brought you here to warm you up.  Please don't be afraid.  You are free to leave when you like.  I could drive you to the closest town and there is a phone on the wall in the kitchen."  He said to calm the fears she was more than likely thinking. 

"Thank you." Shreeked a timid confussed tone.  "I don't know what happened.  Why would you save me?  Why would you take care of me?  You don't know me."

Caleb spoke with such a strong tone.  "You would do the same for me." 

Unsure of how you should respond, she glanced around the room to see how impersonal the it appeared. 

"The less you have the less you have to lose.  I choose not to be attached.  I noticed your stare at the lack of possessions."

"It's not the lack of furnature or decorations or anything.  It just, just the lack of photos.  Don't you have a family that you love?"
