For more than six years, Haymitch had been a constant in Darcy's life here in Madison Valley. They started off as friends, with her helping him through his recovery after he nearly drank himself to death, and then he helped her recover from her ordeal being kidnapped and tortured by a vampire. That friendship developed into more without either of them even realizing it and despite the vast differences in their ages and life experiences, it worked. Until meeting him, Darcy had never seen herself settling down with one person. Stephanie had been a surprise, but not an unwelcome one, and she gave them both a sense of purpose that they'd lacked before.
Now he was gone. And she was left here with their daughter alone. Well, not alone. She had plenty of friends and family that she knew would do anything for both of them. But her daughter was not going to know her father and that made Darcy sad. Any memories Steph might have would be fleeting at her age. She would just have to make sure that she and the others told her lots of stories about what a great man Haymitch was and all he'd done to help people who were struggling with substance abuse issues.
Jason had taken Steph out to the park, so she was sitting on the sofa, her hands cradling a mug of tea. The house was oddly quiet and she considered turning on the TV or some music, just so she wouldn't feel lonely.
