OOM: Realizations
Oct. 4th, 2006 04:58 amBilly woke with a start, eyes wide. The night was calm and dark, and it was nearly morning. He stretched, then rose, padding off for morning ablutions. It had been a few days since he and Cassie had returned to Milliways, and last night she had stayed in her rooms downstairs.
And it had taken him forever to get to sleep in her absence. He didn't like it when she was gone. It felt wrong, out of place, un...right. He shook his head as he started his shower and stood in the scalding water, thinking of her. They had known each other for barely two months, really, and yet, somehow, his relationship with her was tighter and more secure, more warm and powerful, than anything he had ever known. He loved her, as truly and deeply as he could imagine. He wished she didn't have to go back to the rooms she shared with her mom and Sam and...
Realization hit, almost hard enough to make his knees buckle, and he stared at the shower wall for a long time, before finishing and walking out toweling and dressing.
He knew what he had to do, what he wanted to do, and when he saw her today... when he saw her, then he would ask.
With a grin, he headed to the computer and typed her a brief Email, then headed downstairs for breakfast.
