FTEC, Thursday Evening

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!]

"I can tell," he said, the corners of his mouth turning up.

"Well, okay, right now I'm a bit on the 'yay, not broken up anymore!' side," Rory said with a smile. "But I still think you're a dumbass."

"I can live with that," Anakin said. "Because I'm your dumbass."

Yes, he really said that.

Wish he could blame the painkillers for being this painfully unsmooth, but, yeah, all Anakin.

Rory started laughing again.

"I'm pretty sure that is the funniest and sweetest and most bizarre thing you've said to me. Ever. And that's kind of saying a lot."

Anakin grinned. "I'm just glad to see you smile again," he said, running a knuckle down her cheek.

"Likewise," Rory said, turning her face to kiss his hand.

Anakin closed his eyes again, a smile still on his face. "Love you," he said, trying to hide a yawn.

"Love you too."

Rory moved a tiny bit closer. "Can I stay? Or am I going to be bad for you getting better?"

Please stay," Anakin said, moving his hand down to link with hers once more, then yawned again. "I feel better having you here," he murmured sleepily.

Rory stayed close. "I need to call Parker, then. Let her know I can't go this weekend," she said thoughtfully, voice quiet and soothing.

Anakin cracked an eye open. "Of course you're going. I'm still going to be spending the entire weekend meditating. Now it'll just be to mend a broken bone." He frowned. "Okay, more than one broken bone, but still. You're going."

"But...I don't want to leave if you're hurt," she pointed out.

Anakin opened both eyes and tried to look as unhurt as someone with a black eye and a cast possibly can.

"I'll be fine," he said. "Honestly. Parker'll need you."

"Okay," Rory said reluctantly. "I'm still going to ~~handwavily~~ call you to check over the weekend."

She sighed and squeezed his hand. "Did I miss anything exciting with you the past couple days?" She made a face. "I hate having to ask that."

"Well..." Anakin began, then gave her a wicked smile, "I got in a fight."

"No," Rory said, deadpan. "Really? Next you're going to tell me you reconciled with your secret girlfriend."

"Might've," Anakin said, biting his lip. "Other than that, my week was made up of brooding, whining and generally missing someone."

He paused. "And lemurs dancing in my room, but I think I'd prefer to forget about that."

"Lemurs dancing?" Rory asked with a raised brow. "Are you sure you weren't dreaming?"

"No," Anakin said, "they were dancing. And I hadn't been drinking or anything -" there might've been a slight blush when he said that, "- they were just there in the room, dancing to some weird song about Egyptians."

Rory grinned, and then suddenly sobered.

"Can I ask a kind of serious question?"

Anakin nodded, watching her face carefully.

"Would you take it back if you could? Everything that's happened since December, I mean," Rory asked quietly, not looking at him. "Because it kind of sounded like you wished you could, the other night."

Anakin tried to tip her chin up so that she'd meet his eyes. "Hey," he said quietly. "Look at me."

Rory did, reluctantly.

"I don't regret a second of it," he said firmly. "Not one. And if there are consequences for this, then there are consequences." He gave her a shy smile. "I'm the Chosen One, born to bring balance or whatever. I'll learn to balance this. Or cheat destiny."

He stroked a finger down her cheek. "Because I'm not giving you up again."
