"You're so full of shit!" The young man called as he followed his big sister through the slushy South 43rd Street, "Skystorms are up in the sky! How are they supposed to make shit dance down here on ground? Dad said they were ghosts!" He stumbled ov…
I nod in agreement, and kiss him gently on the lips. "I'm sorry too... I shouldn't have led you on like that..." I put a hand gently on his chest, and whisper, "I'm going to help Silica and Hadden... Why don't you stay here, and be safe?"
I huff an exasperated sigh, and bite the inside of my lip... This is fucking stupid. I'd bet everything I own that Tindy didn't even consider Jester as a father for her kid until I up and said it. If Jester walked in there, she'd probably try and co…
There's no fucking winning here... Even when the kid isn't his he wants to play fucking daddy to it. How can he look me in the eye, and sincerely tell me he doesn't care if he's ever a dad?
"Is it really that fucking important to you, that you help…
I listen to him go on and on, smirking to myself at his wishlist of things gets longer, and more absurd. Then my smile fades with his when he gets more serious... I had a feeling he would want that, and part of me — the selfish part — wants to know …
What do I need? What a fucking question to ask now.
I let loose a deeply held sigh, and answer, "I need to know that when our time comes – whenever that may be – that you won't regret our time together. I know I make you happy now; but if I had my …
Hey, there's that knot again!
Most people would have felt the ring in their pocket and put it the fuck back on... Not this girl! ... I suppose it's for the fucking best, though... I follow his gaze down to my hand and stop him from walking once we'…
I nod and raise my voice so they can hear us as we walk over — but then they're kissing... So I stop Jester and grab him by the coat, "Oh... Uh... Hmm... Ok... Jessie, let's uh... Give them some privacy..." Fucker sure doesn't seem to mind that Sili…
I'm watching the exchange between Hadden and Silica... I can't hear what they're saying, but it sure looks like they're saying something important... I shake my head, and nod over to them – guiding Jester's gaze. "I think those two are in love... I …
I raise an eyebrow when he suggests I help him make sure the baby has a life with someone who loves it. I get what he's saying, but this is still going above and beyond the call of duty for either of us... Shy of standing in the way of gunfire, we'r…
I did tense up at first... Then I got that fucking tingly feeling you get in your nose right before you cry, and my eyes welled up. Fucking ass... How the hell am I supposed to keep my fucking spine if he keeps hugging me? After a few seconds, I'm p…
I take a cautious step back when Jester comes running over, and that knot in my stomach comes back in full force when I see he wants to hug me... I nod back to Silica, and turn back to Jester, nervous. His mother's ring is burning a hole in my pocke…
I push myself up into a sitting position, and start fighting with my bra's underwire — the fucking thing never stays put when I fall asleep in it... "Fine," I grumble, clearing my throat, "just make sure someone comes to get me if Tindy blows a stit…
That lifts my head off the pillow — there's a confused look on my face as I try and find her in the light. "What? Why isn't he watching Tindy, like I asked? Why's Silica here?"
I'd just gotten to sleep, too... There isn't much in the way of quiet in here, and if I never hear AC/DC again, it'll be too fucking soon.
"I'm not moving my head off this pillow unless someone's dying," I grumble back, my voice muffled by the down…
Uh, Hello? "I take you for a man Hadden, and don't think I don't know your mind... Just... Take it easy. I wouldn't be surprised if some fucker used a machete to get the kid out..." Not my idea of a good time.
Then I follow Arbor out to the beds, a…
... Fine whatever. I point over at Hadden when he agrees to see Tindy, "no funny business, you. I see that fucking look... I'm not sowing her up again, and I'm not lying to Silica."
My mouth opens to say something, but the skeptical side of my mind snatches the words right off my tongue... "Your bed? ... I don't wanna put you out, Squirrel..." Because I'm not sleeping in the same bed as him.
I sigh loudly, and let him walk past me... I'd be lying if I said I didn't consider walking away. Just going into the tunnels, finding a way out of here, and going fuck knows where... Hell, even just going with Hadden to make sure he'll be OK. Get h…
Holy fuck that was a lot of words... I'm just staring at him with a stupid look on my face, and trying to understand it all. It's hard to do, when you're physically exhausted from hauling someone through the tunnels while getting shot at... I can't …
I stare at him silently for a few seconds, dumbfounded at the proposition. I sigh loudly, and massage my temples. "Hadden... This is why we didn't work out... You can't buy someone's love, and expect sex to solve your problems. Jester wants a family…
I stop dead in my tracks, and slowly spin around on my heel to face him... "Did," I pause a moment, searching his face to make sure I heard him right, "did you just bribe me to go make up with my husband?" I'm not sure I believe that's what he said.…
My eyes narrow at that suggestion, and I cross my arms defensively. "Yeah, Hadden — because I want to fuck a man who wants to spend the rest of his days with Tindy and her fucking kid... Let's just go." I push past him and start walking...
