FTEC, Thursday Evening

[goodtrevor.livejournal.com]

The sheer number of people residing in the clinic when Trevor arrives corrects any notion that it might be quiet this evening. But, he thinks, at least he won't be bored.

[Give me a moment to arrange our injured people in their proper places. *g*] [All right, have at it!]

Anakin turned in his head away from her. "Got in a fight."

"Yes, I know that part," she said calmly. "With whom?"

Re: Exam Two: Anakin Skywalker

[emo-padawan.livejournal.com]

"Angel," Anakin muttered into his pillow.

Then he squeezed his eyes closed and waited for the fallout.

Rory took a deep breath, and ran a hand through her hair.

"Why?"

Re: Exam Two: Anakin Skywalker

[emo-padawan.livejournal.com]

Anakin blew out a breath, still not looking at you. "He took some exception to things I've done to you the last few days. Then it got out of hand."

Re: Exam Two: Anakin Skywalker

Rory closed her eyes for a few seconds, then opened them again.

"Okay. How are you feeling?"

Re: Exam Two: Anakin Skywalker

[emo-padawan.livejournal.com]

"Like an idiot," Anakin said. "Also, my hand's broken. But the painkillers are nice."

Re: Exam Two: Anakin Skywalker

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Yay for painkillers," Rory replied with a trace of a smile. "Boo for broken hands."

She narrowed her gaze a tiny bit, and said, "You should feel like an idiot. I don't like being fought over. I dislike getting scared and worried because you were a moron and got yourself concussed even more."

Re: Exam Two: Anakin Skywalker

Anakin blushed. "Sorry," he murmured.

He paused. "And you don't have to get scared or worried for me any more," he said, turning to look at her.

Re: Exam Two: Anakin Skywalker

Rory looked at him.

She slowly unfolded herself from the chair and wordlessly laid down on the bed beside him, reaching for his good hand.

"I miss you."

Re: Exam Two: Anakin Skywalker

[emo-padawan.livejournal.com]

"I miss you, too," Anakin said, his voice tight.

Re: Exam Two: Anakin Skywalker

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"And I want you to know that I'm absolutely furious with you over this," she continued quietly, tracing her thumb gently over his knuckles. "You and Angel both. I can't remember the last time I was so mad."

Re: Exam Two: Anakin Skywalker

[emo-padawan.livejournal.com]

Anakin swallowed hard. "I understand."

Re: Exam Two: Anakin Skywalker

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"But having said that," and it was Rory's turn to swallow hard, because she was rapidly losing her nerve, "I didn't stop loving you just because we broke up. And I didn't mean what I said on Tuesday, or last night. And this whole not being together thing? Really, really, really hurts. And I don't want to do it anymore."

Re: Exam Two: Anakin Skywalker

[emo-padawan.livejournal.com]

Anakin looked into her eyes. "Really?" he asked softly, gently squeezing her fingers.

Re: Exam Two: Anakin Skywalker

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Really. But...that's where I am," Rory whispered a little hoarsely. "And I understand if you don't feel the same way."

Re: Exam Two: Anakin Skywalker

[emo-padawan.livejournal.com]

Anakin moved his hand to intertwine their fingers. "I love you," he said quietly. "It's one thing I know for sure." He scooted a little closer. "And knowing I hurt you has been killing me. Forgive me?"

Re: Exam Two: Anakin Skywalker

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

Rory nodded, moving a little closer. "And I'm so, so sorry for being so hurtful," she said, leaning her forehead against his. "Forgive me?"

Re: Exam Two: Anakin Skywalker

[emo-padawan.livejournal.com]

"For anything," Anakin whispered, bumping his nose against hers.

Re: Exam Two: Anakin Skywalker

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

Rory smiled. "I missed you," she said again. "And you know how I said before that I never want to fight again? I really, really mean it this time."

Re: Exam Two: Anakin Skywalker

[emo-padawan.livejournal.com]

"I absolutely agree," Anakin said, moving closer.

He paused. "If I kissed you right now, you wouldn't punch me in my other eye or anything, right?"

Re: Exam Two: Anakin Skywalker

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

Rory actually laughed for the first time in days.

"No, I wouldn't," she said softly.

Of couse, that would be when the wee tiny bunny that had been clinging to her side since fourth period would choose to hop up from her waist to her shoulder and hug her ear.

Re: Exam Two: Anakin Skywalker

[emo-padawan.livejournal.com]

Anakin blinked.

Then rubbed his eyes and blinked again.

"Um. I think I'm seeing a tiny bunny on your ear," he said finally. "But it could be the drugs."

Re: Exam Two: Anakin Skywalker

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

Rory reached up and pulled the bunny from her ear, smiling as it wrapped around her finger.

"We have tiny, huggy bunnies on campus today," she said. "Didn't you hear the announcement?"

Re: Exam Two: Anakin Skywalker

[emo-padawan.livejournal.com]

"I did," he said. "Wasn't sure if I was imagining this particular speciman."

He wrinkled his nose up at the bunny. "Who managed to ruin a perfectly decent moment, thanks so much, tiny little being."
