#Young Henry

[dross-the-fish]

"Harry, you're going to get yourself expelled!"

I resisted the urge to laugh. Gabriel was so unaccustomed to raising his voice that it always cracked whenever he got riled up enough to shout. The flimsy mustache he was trying to grow bristled as he prepared to lay into me for my latest indiscretion.

Ever the good school boy and stickler for obeying the rules, I'd anticipated that Gabriel Utterson would give me a good and proper finger wagging once he saw the state of my nose. It was easy enough to talk him down. I flashed him a winning smile "Come off it, Gabe. Are you going to rat me out?"

"I ought to! I really ought to! You're going to be a doctor, Henry! This brawling at pubs is beneath you!"

Ah yes, brawling at the pub. Let him think that. I shrugged amiably and managed to conjure up a look of contrition for him, "It's not what you think! I ran into that Lawson bloke on my way to have a drink and the man was completely blind drunk. He took a swing at me! Don't glare at me so, I only hit him a little. I had to defend myself, didn't I?" It was a half truth. Lawson hadn't been at the pub, I'd followed him home.

And I'd hit him first.

But who was going to believe him over me?

I confess I felt a little ashamed of myself at the look of relief that came over Gabriel's face. He was so eager to believe that I was as much of a saint as he was that he ate up every lie I fed him. Maybe it was better that way. Was it so bad to keep him blissfully ignorant?

"I-I suppose that's fair. Maybe you ought to stay away from the pub, at least until we finish school. Less drinking and more studying, eh? It's about time we grow up, right?" there was an almost pleading quality to his voice that made me hate him and want to comfort him all at once.

I forced a smile, "You're right of course, Gabe, it wouldn't do to have Dr. Jekyll get a reputation as a violent thug, would it?"

The words were barely out of my lips before I felt the weight of a door slam shut. Utterson was clapping me on the back and calling me "Good man!" as far as he was concerned that was the matter settled. Dr Henry Jekyll was a man of good standing who would never stoop to violent indiscretions.

The image had it's appeal. I certainly wanted to be the kind of man Utterson thought I was.

So why did I feel as though I was split in two?

......

Had some thoughts about a young Henry Jekyll and wanted to play around with the idea that he's always been Hyde and Utterson just never picked up on it, or maybe even willingly blinded himself to it. this may or may not be canon in my AU but it was interesting to explore.
