Chapter Warnings: Violence, injury

“You should probably wait out of sight.”

Jerome and I are standing outside of my parents’ house. The lights are on – I just hope they’re still there. That I’m not too late.

“What? I’m not allowed to meet your parents?” He scoffs, but he does retreat into the shadows of the trees that line the sidewalk. I steady myself and walk up the steps. As my hand wraps around the door handle Jerome calls out –

“You’ll be fine!” I can’t tell if he’s serious or joking. Maybe there isn’t ever actually a line with him. I shake my head, ignore him, and try the handle.

The door’s unlocked. A shiver of fear runs through my body as I open it. Please don’t be too late. Please. Jerome watches from a distance. I don’t need to turn around to know that. A shadow passes the window and I burst in. My mom screams and drops the bag she’s carrying. “It’s me!” As soon as she hears my voice her arms are around me. “Harleen!” I think she might be crying. I pry her away from me and hold her at arms-length. “Thank goodness you’re-” “There’s no time,” I pick up the bag and begin searching for my father. “You need to go, now. We’re already pushing it.” He’s in the living room, checking a hastily made list. “Come on.” “We need to wait for Archie to get here.” “No.” I struggle not to shout but I don’t need to create any more stress right now. “You can drive yourself for once.” “But-” “No buts!” I bite my tongue immediately, but it’s made them pay attention. “Now get in the car.”

I grab another bag on my way out and head to the car parked in front of the house. My parents follow me with their own bags. Luckily I can’t see Jerome. Once the bags are stowed away my father opens the back door and stands, waiting for me to get in.

“I’m not coming with you.” My mother steps out of the car and gapes at me. “What do you mean?” “I need to fix this mess. I can’t let them get away with this.” “I won’t let you stay.” “You can’t stop me.” I slam the door from my father’s hand. “Now go.” “Harleen-” He starts, but I don’t have time for a debate. “Dad, just go!” “I’m proud of you.” The words shock me. In eighteen years I don’t think I’ve ever heard that. I don’t quite know how to respond. “I’ll let you know when it’s all over.” It’s all I can say. But I think he understands. “Goodbye.” He gets into the car, turns the ignition, and they’re driving away from me. Left all alone in Gotham City. My dream come true.

I wait until the lights disappear before I let myself fall. All the tension releases from my shoulders and I practically collapse against the wall. A shaky breath makes its way through me and I need to bite my lip to stop myself from bursting into tears.

This is all too much. This isn’t supposed to be my life. I can’t do this. Why me? It’s not fair. Not fair. Not fai-

“Harls,” Jerome’s voice startles me. I swipe hastily at the pooling tears in the corner of my eyes and turn to him. “We should probably get going.” “Yeah.” I nod, swallowing the lump in my throat. No more crying. “You alright?” He asks incredulously, head tilted. “I’m fine.” “Sure you are.” “I don’t want to talk about it.” “You get so sappy over your parents. I really just don’t get it.” He stares off into the distance where the car vanished. “They’re good people.” “And?” “Just shut up.” I shake my head at him. Almost relaxed. I stretch, take a moment to breathe now that the urgency is gone.

Or not.

“We need to go.” Jerome grabs my arm and starts pulling me towards the bike. I hiss at the pain emanating from his grip and try to force him away. “What are you doing?!” He doesn’t answer but just points at the three black cars driving towards us. “Shit.”

We leap onto the bike, Jerome behind me again, not even taking the time to put helmets on before I’m veering away from the sidewalk and away from the house. The cars rev behind us – it’s definitely them. I take a sharp turn, hoping that it will at least be enough to slow them down.

No such luck. They’re closing on us. “Hurry up!” Jerome’s voice is faint, muffled by the engines and the wind. “I’m trying!”

I speed up, the bike roaring beneath me. Suddenly we’re in the city, zipping past bright lights that blur into a neon rainbow. I’m trying to keep on track, to get to Penguin’s, but my priority is getting rid of our trail. We can’t let them follow us.

BANG!

Gunshots shouldn’t sound so familiar. I duck swerve instinctively, despite having no idea what direction they’re firing other than “at us”. I dart between cars, but they somehow manage to keep up. Other drivers are pulling out of the way. I can already hear sirens.

My heart is racing. This is too exciting. It’s terrifying but exhilarating. I’m running on adrenaline and it’s a high unlike anything else. I could do this for the rest of my life.

I catch sight of a narrow alleyway. Dumpsters line it – they won’t be able to follow us. It’s a risky shot. But I can make it.

A hairpin turn. Barrelling through traffic, cars swerving everywhere. It’s getting closer. The wind pulls at us as we barely make it through the gap. There’s the sound of a collision behind us, more gunshots firing, but I keep going. Jerome is trying to say something, but I can’t hear him; I’m laughing in relief, practically whooping at our victory.

Through the alley and out the other side. I turn to head out of the city.

But they’re there. Waiting. I skid to a halt. We seem to stare each other down, me and Jerome versus a fleet of cars, of guns, of death. Waiting to see who will bite first.

Except I’m not waiting.

The wheels skid on the asphalt. We’re heading straight towards them. I grit my teeth. Their weapons are pointed at us. Jerome’s arms around me tighten. A deadly game of chicken.

I go straight through them. They fire, bullets flying, glancing off the metal, one even catching my hair. But for once I’m the lucky one. They’re still chasing us, but the blockade means they have to regroup. Our advantage.

Sooner than I expected we’re out of the city, driving through trees down back roads. I’m starting to think we’ve lost them. Starting to hope that we’ll get there safely.

It was foolish to hope.

More cars. More fucking cars. There’s too many. I’m exhausted, body and mind. Just a bit longer. I can do this. I have to.

But then I glance down.

The tank is close to empty. There’s no way we’ll make it. Not if we have to lose them again. They’re getting closer. I bite my lip. Squeeze my eyes shut, bracing for what I’m about to do.

I’m sorry Jerome.

I snap the handles hard to the right, spinning us hard out of control. Jerome yells in my ear. We knock into trees, bushes, and down a steep slope. We fly off of the bike and away from each other. I hit the ground hard and continue falling, hitting what feels like every rock and branch on the way down. There’s nothing I can do. I feel a sharp pain in my head. Taste blood. See black.

*

“There’s no way they could have survived that.” “We still need to check.” “You want to try and get down there?” “We have to.”

I feel like I’m in a dream. Everything is fuzzy around the edges. But I can see the stars. If they’re the last thing I see, I’ll be happy.

I think I hear cars driving away. I thought they were chasing us? Does that mean I’m dead?

I don’t feel dead. I don’t think I do, at least. But I don’t know what death feels like. The closest to death I’ve felt is leaving Gotham. But I survived that. I don’t think people survive death.

Then again, Jerome did. He died and came back. Quite impressively. Maybe I’ll come back. Maybe I’ll be worse than I was.

“Harleen.” The voice is hushed. Raspy. Familiar. “Jerome?” “I’m here.” I think he’s leaning over me. “Are we dead?” “You’re not getting rid of me that easily.” Hair is moved from my forehead. There’s something sticky. Smells metally. “Of course not. That was a dumb idea.” I murmur. Talking feels funny. It’s like all the bones and muscles in my head have been shaken out of place. “Come on, we need to keep going.” “Just a little rest.” I try to close my eyes but Jerome makes me sit up. I whine in complaint. “They’re looking for us.” “Oh. They’ll kill us, won’t they?” I hate feeling this stupid, sounding this stupid, but my brain feels fragmented. The thoughts just don’t fit together. “Yup, so we need to get going.” He helps me to my feet but as soon as he lets me go, I stumble and almost crash to the ground. Luckily he catches me and hoists an arm over his shoulder. “How come the guy with the bullet wound in his leg is doing the carrying?” He grumbles. “’Cause you like me.” My mouth speaks without my brain. “I’m liking you a lot less after that stunt throwing us off a cliff.” We begin to shuffle across the damp ground. “Well, you can drive next time.” Being on my feet is starting to clear my head a little, and I pull away to stand on my own. I’m still a little unsteady but we need to move as fast as we can. “You know, I really don’t see how that could have gone worse.” “We could have died.” “Good point.” A moment of silence, but I can’t seem to shut up, “What’s it like?” “What?” “Being dead.” Jerome sighs, glancing around. “It’s not like anything. It’s just… nothing. Empty.” “That sounds awful.” “Well, I’m trying to avoid round two for as long as I can.”

I press my hand against my forehead. It comes away bloody. “I’ll have double face scars now.” “Join the club.” He chuckles. “Nah, I’ll look after mine and they’ll look cool.” He gasps in mock offence. “Are you saying my scars don’t look cool?” “You look like Frankenstein’s monster gone wrong.” “That’s harsh.” “It’s true though.” “You wound me, Harls.” “I think you’ll find you’re usually the one doing the wounding, thank you very much. It’s only fair I get a turn once in a while.” I smirk at him.

The levity disappears quickly when we hear voices calling to each other.

“Here’s the bike!” “They’re not here!”

“Shit.” Jerome hisses. We move as one, hurrying forward as silently as possible. They don’t seem to be too close. Yet. We’re both limping as we make our way through the trees. But the pain now won’t matter if they find us. “Wait.” Jerome’s voice is barely a whisper as he throws an arm in front of me. Ahead of us. A man in leather. Flashlight in one hand, gun in the other. Jerome acts on instinct. Before I can process what’s happening I’m pressed against a tree by his body. He holds a finger to his lips. I nod. Slowly, I raise my arm and pull his hood over the shock of ginger hair.

Our hearts beat as one. Eyes fixed on each other. Breath mingling. My hand hasn’t moved from his hood. My wrist rests on his shoulder.

The moment feels endless.

There’s a sigh from behind the tree. The man is walking away. But Jerome isn’t moving. And neither am I. We’re frozen here, together, separate from the world. For once free from everything else. I’m not scared. Fear doesn’t mean anything anymore. Jerome’s eyes flicker to my lips, and mine imitate him. It seems like the only thing to do.

The sound of cars driving away makes me jump. The spell is broken. Jerome pulls back, leaving the space around me suddenly empty and incomplete. “We should go.” I manage to speak. He nods, and I lead us away from the tree, from that moment suspended in time.

[Shinra & Izaya/Izashin] Shouldered Responsibility

This is more of a friendship fic, but there are hints of izashin if you wish to see it, whiiich I kind of do despite my purpose for the fic.

—

    There was this one time that Izaya had to patch Shinra up for a change...

...rather, that wasn't true. There was this second-time Izaya had to patch Shinra up, and luckily the incident was far less fatal and merely bled minutes from their lunch break. 

It was in highschool, years past the middle school incident; all due to unfortunate timing — in circumstance of Shizuo's wrath, Izaya's mockery, and Shinra's stage left entrance onto the rooftop. Sometimes that's all it takes to become the victim of an airborne pole ripped from its chainlink. Though, it was better to describe the weaponised school property as a blunt javelin, the end cap rounded and smooth, the only bit of fortune that could be taken from the happenstance. And it was Shizuo that played the role of misfortune, with the extra amount of umph he thrust into his windup, furthermore into the lance, all the while Shinra struggled with doubled blindsight, and a complete lack of foresight.

    "Gack!"

The collision was quick, but from Izaya’s point of view, the comedy of errors stretched out the ridiculous scene of Shinra's flailed limbs. It was the kind of scene that initially prompted laughter, but upon notice of the aftermath —well— it was hard to feel guilty for the momentous laughter that continued.

    Regardless, Izaya managed a whistle. "Wow, Shizu-chan. What a class act you are; attacking your only friend, if we can call him that."

    "Who's fault is it now? You're the one who didn't take the attack like you were supposed to!"

    "That logic makes no sense. Did you want me to direct the pole towards me psychically? Maybe you should’ve aimed better."

During their bicker, Shinra was pinned to the ground. Not by the pole, mind you — that rolled away after a raucous clang, which none of the other students took notice of. He was just flat on his back, pinned by gravity; forced to stare at the sky and tufts of cloud through blurred vision.

    "You guys…" Shinra sighed.

    "My aim ain't the problem, louse."

    "Really…"

    "It's that you exist."

    "Mmm,” Izaya nodded, “I'll be sure to pass that blame onto my mother."

    "What? Hu??" Shizuo trudged forward, stepped over the human barrier in his path.

    As he did, Shinra snatched his glasses just in time and braced for an impact that he narrowly avoided. "...guys...could I possibly have a minute of your time?"

He was ignored.

    "You mocked my parents for bringing me into this world, didn't you?"

    "How does that make sense!?"

    "Exactly. Welcome to your logic, Shizu-chan."

Izaya shrugged, shook his head as he stepped backward and to the side, continued to evade Shizuo as he approached. Though he kept watch of the gaping hole in the fence that he was being forced to reach, much quicker than comfortable.

But just as his heel teetered on the edge, Shizuo stole him from backward descent by way of his shirt collar.

    "Stop sayin’ things like that when you spew more nonsense than sense, Izaya!"

    "Likewise—"

    "Hey idiots!"

They jolted. Surprisingly that's what stopped the riled teens —the aggressor and the antagonist— and got them to look at their neglected friend as if the diss was an acceptable name to be addressed by.

    "I'm going to need my shoulder popped back into joint." He smiled through a cringe, though proud of his sturdiness while he sat up. Only a bit of sadism motivated the broadening of his beam.

    "Uh, I guess it's my duty…” Shizuo scratched his head while he let Izaya scramble back onto the rooftop. “It's my fault."

    "He finally admits it."

Fight or flight kicked Shinra to his feet without difficulty, as he knew Izaya's snarky comment wouldn't end well; especially for him if Shizuo administered the fix.     "A-ah!! No, no, no, Shizuo! I would rather keep my arm attached to my body!"

    "What he means to say, brute, is that he trusts me more."

Shinra nipped the comment before it went further, "Izaya, we're going to have some words later. After you fix me up!"

—

    "I'm surprised you can't do this yourself."

Izaya furrowed in concentration. He felt awkward as Shinra started to remove his blazer in order to make the procedure easier. Whether or not his nerves were built from guilt, there was more to it; there was a level of trust that someone had to put in another to allow them to help in a seemingly violent way. Rather literally, it aided hurt with pain, thus required responsibility to not botch it and cause another injury. So he questioned if he was the best man for the job.

They weren’t in a private setting, merely off to the side of their peers, but in the shadow of a corner often neglected. The intimacy was akin to past clubroom hangouts that Izaya and Shinra had grown stranger to; so it was nostalgic in that regard.

    "Oh, I can." Shinra shrugged, took a sharp breath when he felt resistance.

    "So, why don't you?"

Uniform sleeves were rolled to Izaya’s elbows, while his arms juggled the air to find the correct approach — specifically his hand placement. Shinra looked upon with humour, proud that he had aptitude over his usually multi-talented friend; but mostly he saw Izaya’s uncharacteristic fluster endearing just the same as awkward.

    "One, I don't particularly like doing it myself. Two, you owe — wait, that’s wrong.” 

Shinra startled Izaya when he took his hand in haste; went on to press his palm inches above his own heart, splayed fingers to help stabilise.     ”You want to lead with your dominant hand and utilise the sturdiness of your palm to control your force. One hardy fell swoop is all it takes!”

    "...oh." Izaya looked bashful.

    "I trust that you can manage to place your other hand my back, am I right? It's a bit hard for me to help you there."

    “I'm not sure if I can handle that, doctor." He rolled his eyes, while Shinra chuckled.

To the casual observer, it looked romantic; riddled with the connotation of something else. In actuality, it represented companionship more than consensual exchange.

    “Ahem!" Shinra cleared the air. ”Anyhoo, there was a second reason that I asked you.”

    “...this should be interesting.”

    “You owe me one, what, for all those free patch-ups I’ve given you—ACK!”

The deep pop that sounded was followed by a series of mumbled ‘ow’s.

    “Izaya, don’t you think you could warn me?”

    “Ohoho~ don’t you owe me for all those times you didn’t warn me, Shinra.” A blip of tongue teased.     “Fair, fair.” He massaged his shoulder. “I guess that means our mutual debt is paid off.”

Izaya’s immature gesture corrected itself, faltered to nod in agreeance. He looked disappointed by the answer. Like it was all a transaction, not that he was trusted. 

    "Ahh, we could say that…"

Shinra noticed, blinked and perked his brows; shocked that his joke was taken literally. Izaya, however, didn’t notice that; simply shook the numbness from his legs while he braced himself stand.

    "But, honestly…”

They paused, stilted and static.

    “...do I need an excuse to spend time with my friend?"

    Izaya huffed, “you're certainly using one."

    "But it's a good one." Shinra held up a pointed finger.

The off-duty chiropractor patted his patient’s fixed shoulder with a feigned smile —that is, pretended that it was forced. Shinra didn’t wince that time, kind of enjoyed the sharp twang within a bruise that began to form.

    “Was it worth it, though?”

    “Mmm, I would think so. I know you feel the same.”

    “Keep telling yourself that you know me as well as you brag. Maybe one day I’ll believe it.” And he turned his shoulder without an intended chill. The sentiment from their afternoon wouldn’t allow any attitude he tried for.

    “Okay, I will.”

—

    So there was that one time that Izaya had to patch Shinra up for a change...or second, as it were. It didn’t turn into a third or a fourth onward, but it wasn’t that the last time assured it wouldn’t happen. It just didn’t. 

Still, Shinra kept to his promise; pestered Izaya with ‘I know you’ and ‘I told you so’ as often as the met up over the years.

    “They say if there’s a way for one’s will, then their word will hold its weight,” Shinra smiled wistfully, “yet sometimes will is just a word in wait of the way.”

    “What a pretentious way to butcher an idiom, Shinra, for your own will...if you will.”

    “Well, Izaya, if there’s a way, then I will.”

—

AN: I think my attempt to butcher an idiom in a way that makes sense was...butchered. Oh well. xD

It's Not Me Is It? Part 5

After their huge row Charlie and Duffy had just about managed to be civil to each other the following morning before Duffy and Charlotte's flight back to New Zealand.

Just over a week later Duffy arrived back in England, alone, for a flying visit to attend Megan's funeral.

Arriving at the church she purposefully ignored Charlie and instead focused on talking to the surprising number of people she recognised from the old days. The biggest shock of all was seeing Suzie, it had been more than twenty years since their paths had last crossed.

Within minutes though it was like no time had passed at all as they fell back into their old chatty ways, updating each other on what they'd been up to. Suzie had been unable to cover her shock at discovering that Duffy, her once utterly naive and giggly old chum, was now a mum of four living in New Zealand!

Charlie sighed as he looked over at the two women chatting. He'd managed to catch Duffy's eye once since she had arrived and she'd given him the filthiest of looks that had led to him not really knowing what to do with himself as a result. She was an intoxicating blend of fire and ice - and he'd well and truly fucked up his chances with her.

She hadn't even picked up the phone when he'd rung to give her the details of the funeral. She'd let it go through to answerphone and not bothered to return his call or any of the messages and emails he'd sent.

As he sat down in a pew he could almost feel Megan's hand giving him a cuff round the back of his head from beyond the grave, her voice echoing in his head telling him how he'd been a fool and, if he was very lucky, he might just get one last chance to fix it. A chance that he mustn't blow or she'd haunt him forever!

Though surrounded by friends in the packed church Duffy had never felt more alone. She glanced over at Charlie, he was hunched over, his head down. Part of her wanted to go over and try to comfort him but a louder part stopped her, reminding her not to allow herself to be hurt again by him.

The service was perfectly Megan - heartfelt but with an underlying current of humour. Charlie gave part of the eulogy and Duffy had read Megan's favourite poem.

At the wake afterwards Duffy was still continuing to avoid Charlie. That was until Charlie returned inside from fetching something from his car and walked straight into her as she left the toilets.

"Ow!" Charlie yelped. It wasn't so much the collision that had hurt as the heel of Duffy's stiletto landing on his toes.

"Sorry." She mumbled, moving her foot and attempting to get past him but he repeatedly blocked her path.

"We need to talk." He told her.

"No we don't. I've said everything I need to already."

"There's something I want to show you that might change your mind on that decision."

"I'm not interested Charlie. At 7.30pm I get on that plane and I'm never coming back here ever again."

"Duffy, please! Just give me one last chance!" He begged. He sighed as she rolled her eyes, her arms crossed under her chest. He forced his gaze back up to her face, willing himself not to become distracted. He reached into the inside pocket of his suit jacket and held out a letter towards her. "I want you to read this."

Duffy took hold of the letter. The envelope wasn't sealed. She opened the letter and began to read, her eyes widening with every sentance. "Is this for real?" She gasped.

"Completely. I'm going to hand it in as soon as I leave here."

"What are you planning to do afterwards?"

"Well I'll have to work out my notice but I was kinda hoping that the offer I got last week from an utterly infuriating yet stunningly beautiful redhead to come live with her in New Zealand was still available..."

"You've done all this..." She gestured to the letter. "...for me?" She gasped.

"You were right before when you said I needed to figure out what was most important to me. These last couple of weeks have made me realise what that is and I don't want you to end up being the one I foolishly let leave forever."

"I..." She didn't really know what to say.

"You don't need to give me an answer straight away. Just promise me you'll think about it?"

Duffy nodded, her head spinning as she handed the letter back to him. She watched as he headed back into the bar before she turned and walked outside. She sat on the wall on the edge of the carpark and stared up into the sky. She lost track of time until suddenly something soft dropped from the sky and brushed against her hand as it rested on the wall. She looked down and picked it up. It was a white feather. She smiled and nodded. "OK Megan, I get the hint!" She whispered, giggling, before heading back inside.

Once back in the main room she found him siting by himself in the corner picking at a sandwich. She strode up to him and lent over to steal a crisp off his plate before sliding into the chair opposite. "There's a few practicalities to consider first..." She began. "Louis would have to share a room with Jake and you, well, you'd have to share my room unless you really like sleeping on the sofa..!" She smirked.

"Oh I think I can get used to sharing." He grinned. "Will you come with me to hand in my resignation?"

"If you want me to? We can go on the way to the airport." She suggested.

"That's a good idea. I need to make a quick detour to my house on the way though."

"Sure." She replied, a glint of curiosity in her eyes but he wasn't forthcoming with any further information. After taking a quick glance around the room she picked up her chair and scooted it around the table so it was next to his rather than opposite.

"I'm sorry for the amount of times I've screwed things up between us..." Charlie sighed.

Duffy placed her finger gently against his lips to quieten his apologies. "Let's not think about that now."

Charlie smiled, finding himself becoming quickly lost in her eyes.

Duffy chuckled good-naturedly as she noticed his attention begin to wander. She removed her finger and replaced it with her lips giving him a gentle kiss.

When they parted moments later Charlie rested his forehead against hers. "I'm not sure it's the done thing to make out at a wake..!" He laughed.

"True but I'm sure Megan wouldn't bat an eyelid." Duffy replied with a smile. "She admitted she was wrong to try and keep us apart." She added.

Charlie smiled. "She was a woman of strong opinions but she was always willing to admit when she'd misjudged a situation."

Charlie and Duffy spent the next half hour catching up with old friends and some of Megan's family before grabbing Duffy's hand luggage bag ready for her flight home.

It didn't take long before they arrived at Charlie's house. "I'll be a few minutes so you might as well come in for a coffee." He smiled.

Duffy made herself comfy on the sofa whilst Charlie disappeared upstairs. She stretched out her feet as she debated changing her shoes now or waiting til she was on the plane. She was about to go fetch her trainers when Charlie arrived back downstairs.

"Louis found this under his bed the other day." Charlie explained, holding out a teddy towards her.

Duffy took hold of the teddy with a smile. "I've spent days trying to find that! Charlotte swore she didn't take it to England with her." She rolled her eyes.

Charlie waited patiently to see how long it would take Duffy to notice what he'd handed over with the bear.

"Charlotte will be so pleased to be reunited with Mr Ted." Duffy smiled as she straightened out the bear's waistcoat. She shot Charlie a bemused look as she noticed the bear had a chain around its neck.

"Open it." He urged softly.

It was then that she realised the bracelet had a heart shaped pendant on it with a hinge down one side. Placing her fingernail in the clasp she flicked it open. Inside was an inscription - 'Whether near or far you'll forever hold my heart'.

"I've had it for a long time but I never had the guts to give it to you. I want you to know that I'm serious about us."

Duffy's eyes misted up as Charlie helped her place the bracelet around her wrist. "Its beautiful." She murmured.

"Just like you." The words were out of his mouth before he had chance to consider how corny he sounded.

Duffy giggled, a slight blush colouring her cheeks.

"That was such a lame thing to say wasn't it?"

"No. I'm just not quite used to you paying me those sorts of compliments when you're sober!" She teased.

"Yes, well..." Any further words were cut off as she quickly lent forwards and kissed him. She wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him close.

When they eventually broke apart, mainly due to a need to breathe, Duffy giggled. "I thought that would reduce the risk of you saying something stupid!"

Charlie pouted but deep down he knew she was right. He wasn't sure what it was about her but he did seem to so often end up saying the dumbest things to her..!

"Oh don't flash those baby blues at me! I'll end up missing my flight!"

Charlie laughed. "You'd make me be the one to explain why to the kids wouldn't you?"

"Of course!"

"It's a shame we're so pressed for time..." He sighed, stroking his hand up her thigh and over her hip.

"Four weeks." She smiled. "Four short weeks is all you have to wait."

"That's ages! Can't we just..?" His eyes flickered in the direction of the stairs.

She made a great show of mulling over his suggestion. "Its tempting but I remember what happened the last two times I allowed myself to be charmed into your bed..."

"Yes, well..." He cleared his throat. "We, um, got caught up in the moment..!" He stammered.

"We certainly did!" She giggled. "We best go hand in that letter of yours." She reminded him.

Charlie nodded and they made their way to the hospital. Duffy decided to wait in Charlie's office whilst he went up to see HR. She smiled as she looked around the room, slightly surprised by how little had changed in the time she'd been away. A mischievous grin formed on her face as she hopped up to sit on the edge of the desk, her legs swinging in the air as she lent back on her hands.

She hadn't moved by the time Charlie rejoined her. "All done, just need to..." He began as he walked through the door. Catching sight of her he stopped, his hand still on the handle. "Well that's a sight I've missed..!" He smirked, his eyes roaming her figure.

"Lock the door." She grinned.

Josh was surprised to see the light to Charlie's office on as he passed through reception and even more so when the office door opened as he approached it and he narrowly avoided colliding with Charlie and Duffy, who were both a little flushed and giggling like schoolkids. "Um, hi. I didn't think you were working today?" He remarked to Charlie. As for Duffy, well, he hadn't even been aware that she was back in the country nevermind back in Holby!

"Erm, yeh, just had to pop in to drop some paperwork off." Charlie explained hastily, avoiding looking at Duffy who was trying to catch his eye.

"Oh I see." Josh smirked as he gestured to his lip and gave Charlie a pointed look.

"Um... I'll explain later!" Charlie blushed, quickly wiping the lipstick mark from his lip. "I promised Duffy I'd give her a lift to the airport. Pint after your shift finishes?" He suggested.

"I look forward to it." Josh chuckled. "Nice to see you're keeping well Duffy." He added.

"Yeh, great to see you too Josh." She smiled.

Once they were back in Charlie's car Duffy burst into giggles. "Please apologise to Josh for me later!" She snorted.

"Yeh, I think he may have gotten a bit of an eyeful..." Charlie smirked, running his finger along the neckline of her dress that was now revealing a lot more of her cleavage than it had when they'd arrived at the hospital.

"Charlie!" She rolled her eyes, trust him!

Charlie laughed as he reversed out of the parking space and headed to the airport. Once there he accompanied her as far as he could.

The mood between them was very different to the last time they'd been here. That time she couldn't wait to leave but now it broke her heart to even though she knew it was only for a short time. She sighed as she heard her flight being called for the final chance to board. "That's me." She confirmed sadly.

"Let me know as soon as you land. I don't care what time it is!"

She nodded and reluctantly stood up, away from his arms. She kissed him one last time and headed towards the gate.

She was about to head through it when she heard him shout "Wait!" and come running over.

"Charlie! I really have to..!" Her words were muffled by his lips crushing against hers once more.

"I love you." He grinned, the biggest, dopiest smile on his face.

She blushed. "I love you too. I'm already counting down the days." She added shyly.

"You and me - together forever." He smiled. "Now go before I decide to refuse to let you board that plane!" He laughed.

Duffy showed her ticket and went through the gate, walking backwards giggling til she could see Charlie no more.

Even though he couldn't see the planes from the main building Charlie refused to leave til he saw on the board that her plane was safely in the air. He looked at the clock. Shit! He was going to be late to meet Josh..!

cut to the cool (trephacard)

@teamseaslug requested: I don't know if you're still looking for prompts, but: Trevor catches a cold due to sleeping on the gross ground and night. Alucard is totally unaffected because dhampir and Sypha is fine because she knows how to bundle up better. Cue doting but teasing duo trying to help him get better, torn between being genuinely worried and wanting him to feel better, and making fun of him

Warning(s): G, none

“I’m not sick.”

A loud, body-shaking sneeze.

It was in that moment that Sypha and Alucard, on their own mounts, exchanged glances with each other before peering over their shoulders in unison at the brunet trailing behind by at least several strides. Trevor Fucking Belmont was slumped over his horse, huddled into his shaggy, furry mantle, and clutching the reins as far back into his covering as he could allow without bringing his horse to a complete halt as it trod through the snow.

“Trevor, you’re sick.” He winced as though he were a vampire struck with holy water. “Adrian, why don’t we stop in Buda? We have to head to Pest by morning, anyways, and my Hungarian isn’t too shabby.”

“Hm, you have a point. I believe it’s only a few more miles and there should be ample inns. Especially considering Belmont’s condition.” Fair, honey gold eyes studied him for a moment before turning back with a faint, amused smile. His expression became kinder once it was upon Sypha. “You and I might be playing nursemaid tonight.”

Trevor snorted indignantly that was broken by a sneeze. “I don’t need a fucking nursemaid. Especially from your smug ass,” Trevor groused in Alucard’s general direction, the dhampir merrily ignoring him. “Sypha, can’t you just…cast some fucking spell and cure me?”

The blonde rolled her eyes exaggeratedly. “Trevor, stop being so dramatic. You’ve lived how many years before I came along…? Besides, I don’t know healing magic. Not yet, at least. I can make potions and the like, but I need ingredients to do it. Ingredients easier found a little closer to civilization.” Alucard couldn’t help but chuckle at Trevor’s wounded ego.

“My mother taught me a great many things about the healing arts. I think I could be of assistance, Sypha,” Alucard concurred brightly, there a rare enthusiasm shining in his eyes. She couldn’t help but beam at him, Trevor feeling a distant pang of jealousy at something they had in common he wasn’t sure if he could share in or not.

“…Fine. We’ll go to fucking Buda,” Trevor conceded begrudgingly with a sullen sigh, if so that he wouldn’t feel left out or anything of the like. Still, he sulked for the remainder of the ride there, their steeds practically wading through the deep embankments of snow. A few snowdrifts lazily cascaded from the umbrage of the firs, but their journey was otherwise uneventful.

Buda was by no means a modest city, comparable to places like Gresit but far richer in scope. The Voivode of Buda was likely a wealthy man, a member of the Corvinus family if Trevor remembered correctly. Woodland area soon gave way to the metropolitan cityscape of the Hungarian capital, Trevor being one to whistle appreciatively if his nose weren’t so congested. “Let’s find an inn before it gets too dark,” Sypha suggested, the other two following her as the blonde seemed to instinctively know the way.

The first inn they came upon seemed a respectable, working place and not one of the more glamourous haunts of traveling noblemen found in the inner city. Torchlight framed modest windows and earthenware grew from its four corners and joined at a grey, slanted roof with adobe eaves and prettily wrought lamps that hung from their perches. People milled in the courtyard and stable hands brushed through some customers’ horses while they were tethered in crossties between two posts. The clangor of a farrier shoeing a horse could be heard, but it was hardly of import.

“Thank you,” Sypha thanked as she dismounted from her steed, a shy groom collecting her horse’s reins and blushing at her smile. Well, he could hardly blame the kid. Sypha was a beautiful woman, after all. In faint amusement, he saw Alucard watching the exchange with a dark expression, smirking to himself.

He ribbed the dhampir once who raised a brow at him, scowling deeply. “Try not to scare the fucking locals, will you? Last thing we need to be chased from town with a bloody torch mob on our heels,” Trevor warned him with a raised brow, clutching his mantle over his shoulders. He took Alucard by the sleeve of his elegant black overcoat, the blond appearing indignant the entire time.

“I can handle myself, Belmont,” Alucard hissed under his breath, flinging open the door that startled some of the bar patrons.

Truth be told, the three of them received stares. Trevor for his ruggedness, Alucard with his unearthly beauty, and even Sypha had a fair few men scrambling to finish their drinks so they might acquire the chance to at least exchange a word or two. Though, the latter two seemed oblivious to the stares they received, the dhampir to glad to fend them away with a pointed glare that usually made it subside. Trevor chuckled to himself under his breath while Sypha made a beeline for the counter.

“One room for three, please,” she requested of the innkeeper kindly, the matronly woman exchanging the Ducats Sypha paid for it with a room key. Though the din of conversation was comforting to her, the unchecked irritation on Alucard’s face and Trevor’s own sickly state made her reconsider any want to converse with the people there. At least she hadn’t forgotten much Hungarian since she’d been there last.

Alucard and Trevor followed in tow while Sypha led them to their room, relieved when they stepped inside and she flitted about lighting several candles and a gaslit lamp. Alucard closed the door behind him, then backing into it to lean against it. “Sypha, where do we go from here?”

“Hm? Oh! Well, Trevor obviously needs to get into bed and rest— I, Trevor, don’t change yet!” Sypha yelped when Trevor shed his mantle and began stripping off his clothing, down to his trousers that hung from his hipbones. A blush colored Alucard’s cheek rosily and Trevor smirked triumphantly before his smugness was ruined by an enormous, recoiling sneeze.

“Fucking hell,” Trevor groaned as he flopped unceremoniously on one of the beds, cocooning himself in sheets while Alucard chuckled. “Fuck you laughing at, Adrian?”

“Nothing,” Alucard dismissed rather smugly, turning instead towards Sypha who looked ready to venture outside again. “Are you going out?”

“Not quite. I’m going to speak with the innkeeper’s wife about any herbs she might have stored I can make a poultice or remedy from. Tea, too. And Trevor, if I find you’ve drunk any alcohol, I will personally kick your ass. It’s the last thing you need right now!” With that, she exited the room with a slam of the door and left the two men in silence.

Alucard took a chair in one of the corners and relegated himself to sentry, even though Trevor would be damned before he spent a night of silence with him. “So, what was that earlier? Do you always get that jealous when she speaks with someone who isn’t one of us?” He raised an eyebrow at Alucard, rolling on to his back.

The blond tucked a strand of hair behind a tapered ear. “…I’ve become so accustomed to loss that I hold those I cherish too closely. Am I supposed to be always so civil when it comes to you two?”

That sent a pang through Trevor’s chest as he glanced quizzically at the dhampir. Sometimes, he forgot this whole arrangement they’d begun, that the three of them would be each other’s exclusive lovers. Sometimes, it was too easy to cut himself out of that equation with a life like his that made him used to feeling like the shit people scraped off their boots. Having that declared was like being strafed by a Morningstar.

“Us two?” Trevor echoed with an uneasy chuckle. “Could’ve fooled me, Tepes.”

Suddenly, he found Alucard at his bedside in an inhuman spurt of speed with a hand commandingly on his chest, but instead of roughness, the dhampir gently pushed him back down among the sheets before removing it again. Then, a sudden smile. “You are an idiot, Belmont. But an idiot I am happy to be stuck with.”

Feigning contemplation Trevor suddenly seized a pillow and slapped Alucard in the face with it, emitting an airy and soft collision that left the dhampir blinking stupidly, unsure as to how to react. Trevor squatted on the bed, grinning as he took the pillow and smacked the back of Alucard’s head this time. “Are you sure you want to be so vulnerable, Adrian? You’re wide open,” Trevor taunted and Alucard smiled gamely.

“Try me, Belmont,” he challenged as Trevor swiped him again, this time Alucard ducking in perfect time. Trevor wanted to laugh loudly, but it dissolved into a fit of coughing with tears building in his eyes. Alucard easily pinned Trevor back down among the sheets, the Belmont throwing back in mock defeat. “Alright, you have me! Satisfied?”

“I’d say so,” Alucard agreed just as Sypha walked into the room with a basket of ingredients and a noticeably lighter change purse.

“Were you two fighting again?” she demanded as she set the basket down on a sparse table, hands on her hips. “…Who won?” Trevor rolled his eyes, tongue poking out and jabbing his finger towards Alucard. Sypha couldn’t help but giggle and began fixing together the beginning of a brew of tea, setting the smaller cauldron over the hearth fire and igniting it.

“I propose something other than fighting to help time pass while we nurse this idiot,” Alucard began as he brought a few chairs near the fireplace, parallel from the bed like a round robin. “A contest, of sorts. We tell each other three stories, and whoever can guess which one is false….hm, gets one wish.”

“That sounds like an easy enough game. You’re shit at lying, Tepes,” Trevor said cockily, sitting up on the bed with the scent of the brew filling the room pleasantly. Chamomile, by the smell of it. Tea he used to drink as a child.

“And with your complete lack of imagination, Belmont, you’ll be far too easy to rule out,” Alucard simpered with a soft chuckle.

It was Sypha who beamed smugly at them both. “Well, seeing as Adrian sucks at lying and Trevor has no imagination, you two are more than welcome to concede defeat now and give me two wishes,” Sypha offered with a puckish grin, merrily stirring the pot. “Besides, even if the former weren’t true, I’m a Speaker. I have you beat without even trying.”

“Do you want to bet on that, Sypha?” Trevor challenged, smirk only seeming to grow.

“If you do, I’ll bet on myself to spare you both the embarrassment,” Alucard teased, chuckling at them.

“In your dreams, Adrian!” Sypha and Trevor exclaimed in unison, the three of them breaking out into merry, warm laughter.

Maybe being sick wasn’t so awful, after all.

6/12/20

I’m sitting in a chair in a darkened DMV office, my back to the wall facing a cubicle with a cluttered desk. To my left is a long line of people waiting to do to whatever it is I’m doing. A woman comes to me and puts circles of painters tape on my forehead, cheeks, shoulders and chest. She tells me to look forward so my picture can be taken. She tries several times to take the picture by pressing a button and reorganizing the tape on my head to get a proper photo. It doesn’t work so she scoots next closer to the desk where I see an open computer with led lights in the case. My mom appears next to the lady and begins to complain to her about her own boss and how he’s a terrible boss even though I know that she just doesn’t understand what her boss is doing. The woman who works at the dmv laughs as she realizes the camera doesn’t exist. I’m scooted back against the wall as a camera in placed in front of me. The woman and my mom then try to get in the photo with me and laugh as I try to fix my hair, which they keep ruffling up. The photo is taken and I now find myself in the passenger seat of maxs car, driving down a country road. This drive is broken into still frames and as the photos play out it shows us following a grey semi truck. In some pictures we’re driving behind it, others we are to the side and in one the we are facing the truck as it swerves to hit us in a head on collision. To get back at the truck we get into a line to the lot where the truck is supposed to park. We aren’t allowed in and thus clog the line. I get out of the car onto the grass to point and laugh at the truck driver. I turn around and I find myself in the living room of my dads house. My dad is laying down on the couch while he complains to me how we never meet up anymore. I walk upstairs and lay down on a weight bench in the room with the fish tanks, the lights turned off and only lit by the lights from the fish tanks. I realize the jeans I’m wearing have zippers that unzip the jeans all the way down to my lower calf. I stand up again and find myself in a girls bedroom, lit only by a salt lamp. Another girl who the room does not belong to appears in the room and trips me into the bed. She comes into the bed with me and begins to take off her clothes and tries to have me get naked and have sex with her. I panic and accidentally unzip the aforementioned jeans and created air resistance that makes it difficult for me to run away. I run into the bathroom trying to find more clothes to put on to make sure I don’t have sex. I look left and I see a cluttered bathroom counter and the mirror where my own terrified face looks back at me. I turn to the right into the closet but I find nothing that fits me and I am led back to the bed where I uncomfortably lay on my back as the girl sleeps naked next to me. In the morning I get out of the bed and go to brush my teeth. My toothbrush is located in an extremely clean airport, the walls the perfect shade of white. The only thing in the building that isn’t white is a trough that is waist high that stands parallel to the high ceilinged hallway. There, beneath the plants in the trough is my toothbrush. I realize I’m accidentally using my dads toothbrush and so I angrily brush my teeth trying to finish as fast as possible. I look around me at the pearlescent white airport. There is only one other person, who is riding an escalator up to another floor. I finish and spit into the plants. I go down the hall to go to bill gatess offic. I round the corner just as he’s leaving his office. I shoot finger guns at him and I say “Bill I got a question and you seem smart enough to know”. I begin twirling a triangle shaped gear in my finger and I ask him for a word I can’t remember. I can’t even remember how to describe the word I can’t remember so he stares at me awkwardly and walks off.

I am a 18 year old female(I'll be 19 in a few weeks) living in Florida and just got my permit on December of 2011, and license July of 2012. I am going to the Honda dealership on October 1st with my dad to purchase my first car. We are not to sure if we are going to lease or finance, it all depends on the car rates and the deals they offer. I will be under my moms insurance through Geico. Because I am a first time driver and a girl i know it can be a little expensive. I know I can get discounts by having good grades which is good because I actually did have good grades in high school and currently attending a college. I just want to know estimates of how much I will be paying. Oh yeah, because I will be paying for my insurance. Not my mom nor my dad. I know it also depends on what type of car you have as well. It will be a white civic either 09 or 10. If anyone can help me out that would be great. I look forward to reading your answers. Thanks!""

How can I get access to affordable US Health care as an American who lives in France?

It has been almost 2 years and I really feel like there is something not right with my health but the doctors in France aren't listening. I have swollen lymph nodes for over a year now.
