[Prethreading OOM] Will and Kate, Koor.

[stuck_mynock]

Atton doesn't head out of the bar, this time, he just opens the door to let Kate and Will through, leaning his head out of the doorway to talk to them.

"I'll meet you back here in ... lemme think ... two hours? Don't get into any trouble." He grins at them, before closing the door.

Comments

[will_scarlett]

"Aye, but yer dork."

[nothawkingbird.livejournal.com]

"Definitely," And she kissed him again.

[will_scarlett]

"Love ye an so lucky to 'ave ye."

They've also ended up at the dance floor where Will spins Kate around before pulling her back to his arms.

[nothawkingbird.livejournal.com]

"Both lucky, and love you too, Will." She smiled as she danced with him on the floor.

[will_scarlett]

The music slows and he pulls her even closer, swaying with her before taking one of her hands and kissing it.

[nothawkingbird.livejournal.com]

"Pretty nice here, isn't it?" She quietly said to him.

[will_scarlett]

"Aye, tis."

[nothawkingbird.livejournal.com]

"Should get something to say thanks to Atton for this."

[will_scarlett]

"Aye, we should, somethin' shiny an good for stabbin' folks."

[nothawkingbird.livejournal.com]

Kate blinked and warily replied, "....Uh-huh, that sounds like him, but you can get that."

[will_scarlett]

"Or could find 'em somethin' else, sure ye might 'ave a better idea, love."

[nothawkingbird.livejournal.com]

"Um, sure, probably." The stabbing mention just put her mind back in a bad place again, and she was now not really focusing on Will or the place.

[will_scarlett]

So he dances with her quietly, moving them to the side where he hugs her and moves a hand through her hair,

"Kate, come back to me, love?"

[nothawkingbird.livejournal.com]

"Hmmm? What, Will?" she asked distractedly, her mind calling up memories of stabbing Brand, though it seemed muffled, and distant.

[will_scarlett]

"Look into me eyes, Kate, come back from yer thoughts."

[nothawkingbird.livejournal.com]

She turned toward him, but then glanced away again.

"It's nothing, just bad memories."

[will_scarlett]

"Love, that's na nothin'. I'm 'ere to listen to ye."

[nothawkingbird.livejournal.com]

She still didn't meet his eyes as she quietly replied at last.

"Just the stabbing comment, that's all. Seems stupid since it wasn't really me. Even though it kind of was."

[will_scarlett]

"Forgive me for that, Kate an isna stupid, 'urts ye."

[nothawkingbird.livejournal.com]

"You just forgot. I don't get that luxury."

[will_scarlett]

Will hates hearing her say that and it hurts so much because he knows he made her unhappier as he holds her tight.

[nothawkingbird.livejournal.com]

She drew in a shuddering breath, and was trying to not cry again. So she just hugged him back tightly.

[will_scarlett]

He rubs her back and starts singing to her.

[nothawkingbird.livejournal.com]

"Don't let it destroy you... Don't let it destroy you.... 1 ...2...3...4...5..."" She was now murmuring to herself, trying to push the thoughts away.

[will_scarlett]

The singing rises in volume as he tries to comfort her.
