Who: Victor and Kat
What: Everything is a bit suck at the moment
When: Tuesday
Where: Victor's Place
Warnings: TBD


If honest with herself, Kat was starting to think of Victor's place as 'home'. A safe place, where everything bad could be shut out and she didn't have to think. She kept it to herself for now though. When he picked her up she'd just smiled and climbed into the car. She'd been quiet most of the ride, staring out at the city and hating how utterly normal it looked.

Somewhere out there something so evil had a friend of hers in it's claws, and people were still busy yelling at traffic. It felt horribly unfair. She wanted to yell at them, but didn't. Instead she played with a bracelet on her wrist and was quiet. When they arrived she walked into his home and put up her coat. It all felt mechanical. She wondered if any of it mattered.

She found herself on the couch with the desire to cry, but didn't. She'd cried more then enough over the past few days. Between the nightmares and that, she just felt tired. "I really want to run away." She finally gave. She toyed her fingers over her jeans. "And it feels like it wouldn't matter. Like nothing matters."

"I have my high school photo here somewhere, tucked away it-" He muttered as he flipped about in the book and then he came to it. "There it is (http://www.celebyearbookphotos.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/Jeffrey-Dean-Morgan.jpeg)," he said, amused. "My hair...the horror."

"I was trying to look fancy!" he protested with a laugh. "Can a fedora make this better?" he asked as he turned to the next photo (http://media-cache-ec4.pinterest.com/192x/83/7f/a7/837fa7d5f69a637ff62019726f08b5d1.jpg). "This was after starting at the academy. I was being suave."

"The 90s told me," he laughed and then he turned to plant a kiss on her forehead. "It's a good thing I don't try to be suave any more, because I'd be setting myself up for failure."

He lifted her hand to his lips and planted a soft kiss on it. "Your opinion is the only one I care about anyway. I'm glad you're feeling better. Is there anything else I can do for you?"

"I just didn't want to sleep alone tonight," he admitted. "So you already gave me what I wanted when you asked to stay. I probably would have begged eventually," he said with a chuckle. "Having you here with me is all I really want."

"I'm not even trying to be adorable," he said, looking pleased with himself. "And that's up to you, really. We could go for a few weeks or the whole summer. Whatever you like. I was thinking though, that after you finish finals, maybe we could adopt a dog. And if we do, maybe just a few weeks is better."

"That sounds perfect to me," he said, leaning in to kiss her. "I'm looking forward to it. I'll look into accommodation as well. Do you prefer smaller towns? We could find a little beachfront place somewhere."

"Teamwork!" he said cheerfully. "So if it's beachfront I guess this means you'll see me in my leopard-print speedo." And then he cracked up over his own joke.

"Oh god," he laughed more. "I assure you, I don't have a leopard-printed anything. Or even a speedo. I just like seeing your face do that 'you are entirely ridiculous' look."

"We could always do pre-trip shopping," he suggested. "My trunks might be too big for me now anyway. I'd have to dig them out to see."

"Are you all for that because they're likely to just fall off?" he asked with a laugh.

"I'd protest, but I love it," he smiled fondly at her.
