WHO: Augustus Pye and Eloise Midgen.
WHERE: Augie's House.
WHEN: Saturday Night. November 13, 2002.
WHAT: Eloise is very upset about what happened to Hannah and Augie is trying to comfort her.
RATING: Well, you never know with these two.
STATUS: In progress.

To be honest Augustus was more than worried to see Eloise. She sounded upset when he had spoken to her last, but he wasn't exactly sure why. They hadn't talked much in the past week or so, which really frustrated him but he didn't know what to do about it. This whole situation had gotten incredibly out of hand and he just wished it hadn't started in the first place. There would always be a part of his heart that would belong to Eloise, but he was going to have to push past that. It was time to be a good friend.

He had seen her at the Gala looking lovely as ever, and then glanced over at the handsome gentleman that was next to her and decided to leave. He hadn't even been there for more than 10 minutes. What happened between them? Well, it was confusing and frustrating and he loved it but he should've never left. He should have stayed with her despite Sadie's interruptions in her studio that night. He was beginning to think he was the biggest twit in the world when Eloise had contacted him. He invited her over, unsure of what she would say, and she said yes. He could tell she was upset and he wanted nothing more than to help her but first, he was going to have to figure out what was wrong.

Having just gotten out of the shower, Augie was drying himself off. Pulling on a pair of black track pants and a light grey t-shirt, he exited his bedroom and walked over to the living room. He had started a fire since it was so chilly out now and Sadie was laying lazily in front of it with her eyes closed.

He sat on his couch nervously and began to fidget a bit. Why was he so nervous? This was just Eloise. Augie could only imagine what she was upset about, but he wanted her to get there faster so he could make sure she was alright. Sadie, being the attentive dog that she was, shot up and began to bark indicating that someone was at the door. Almost too hastily, AJ shot up from his sofa and ran to the front door, opening it in a hurry.

Eloise shook her head. "I can't," she murmured, feeling the tears well up again. She sighed and moved closer to Augie, curling next to him, her head half on his chest as she listened to the steady beat of his heart. Her fingers traced patterns over his thigh, trying to think of anything to say but nothing came out. She had no words. Her heart was aching for her cousin. Her cousin who'd lost so much the past few years and now this? She didn't want to think about it anymore. She didn't want to remember that Hannah was hurt and in pain and that there was nothing she could do about any of it. Her best friend, who was putting on her usual smiling face, was going to turn once a month and be ostracized by society. Elle's mouth formed a flat line as she glared at the fire. Not if she had anything to say about it.

Augie's comfort helped soothe her broken soul and just being next to him made her feel a little better. She'd get through this and he'd help her. Leaning up, she let her lips brush lightly over his cheek before pulling back. Holding his gaze for a moment, she gave him a tentative smile. "You're helping just by being here for me," she whispered, reaching out and cupping his face. Leaning in, her kiss was light and soft. Nothing terribly romantic about it. A friend thanking a friend.

"I don't know what I'd do without you," she admitted softly. She didn't. Augustus Pye had become the second most important person in her life and the love she felt for him? Well, it was overwhelming most days and she had to somehow express it in her art. This time, her kiss was a bit more.

Wow. She really wasn't keen on talking about this. He came to the conclusion that it must've been someone else that she was upset about because if it was directly affecting her, she surely would have told him.

He knew it was wrong, but having her this close to him was still intoxicating. He had to remind himself that she was upset and certainly didn't want someone like Augustus all over her when she was in the middle of crying. He close his eyes when she kissed his cheek and opened them as she spoke. "I'll always be here for you, Lou." Looking down at her, he let her kiss him in thanks, which made a weak smile appear on his lips.

"I don't know what I would do without you either. You're- you're perfect."

And then she was kissing him again, and this time it was more needy, wanton. He could feel the desperation in her lips and he didn't want to ever pull away. Shifting the weight of his body, AJ turned his chest to face her without breaking the contact of her soft lips on his. Bringing his hand up to the small of her back, he kissed her back as gently as he could attempting to keep himself in control. Honestly. Were they going to make a habit of this? If so, he'd be pretty excited about it.
