Where: Merritt's apartment
Status: Complete



Zel had a feeling that Merritt needed her tonight. So, after closing the cafe and changing at her house, she took the train to his. Red hair brushed past her shoulders as she came into that building. It didn't take her long to reach his door as she knocked. She was pretty sure he knew she was there already. But still, it was nice to knock either way. She had come to glance at her phone since she was texting multiple people tonight. But still hadn't heard from Mickey yet. "Come on, Mickey. Reply back." She said absentmindedly.

Merritt looked a the camera in his peep hole and saw Zel standing outside. He pressed a button on his computer and it opened for her. "I'm upstairs." He said from the small office in the loft. He was working on a case, half a bottle of scotch sitting open on his desk. His tie was undone and his shirt was open exposing his undershirt. His jacket was draped over the back of his chair.

"What sounds better? Someone lying about being abused in order to put her husband away and take his money. Or someone convincing her boyfriend to beat her up so she can accuse her husband so she can get out of the prenup and divorce him and take his money?" Merritt called down to Zel.

When he said his location, Zel started making her way up those stairs. Hearing his questions. "The second." She said with a nod as she came to place her phone on the couch as she came to kick off her shoes. She was dressed in sweats and a shirt. Nothing fancy, but it showed she was planning on staying the night. "It's what I would have done." She said with a shrug of her shoulders for the moment as she came to glance over at him, taking note of the bottle and his tie undone.

"Yea, I was leaning toward that too." He took a sip from his glass as he made a note. "Now to establish a plausible timeline." Merr ran his fingers through his hair as his elbows rested on his desk. He held his head for a moment, briefly wondering why he did it. Merr shook his head and finished what was left in his glass, almost instinctively pouring another. "You didn't come here to watch me work." He said softly, not quite looking up from his desk as he sifted through some files on the screen.

"No.. After our talk I just felt like you needed me here." She said coming to a stand as she moved towards him. Her arms coming around his neck from behind as she pressed her chest against his back and held him firmly. Lips brushing against his ear for the moment. "Whatever it is, you can tell me. You know that."

He shook his head. "Nothing but questioning my life choices... as always." Merritt turned in his seat to face her, lifting his drink to his lips. "All those corporate assholes that get thrown my way." Yea he didn't like many of his clients, but he got them off. Just like his most recent womanizer and abusive husband who he was trying to argue was set up by his wife- the person he knew he abused, he'd seen the pictures.

When he came to turn and face her, it was easy for Zel to come and straddle Merritt. Her hands resting on her lap as she listened to him for the moment. "Sounds like you need a vacation." She said as she brought her hand to comb through his hair. She leaned in close as her hands reached out to the desk and with a push that rolling chair pushed away from the desk. "Come on. Spend tjme with me. Not your files. They can wait."

He rested his arm on the arm of his chair, thumb running over the lip of his glass. "Vacation? What pray tell is that?" He joked... or sort of. Merritt hadn't ever really taken a break from what he could remember. Work had been really the only reason he kept going. Besides, what would a vacation do for him other than not work a couple days with his own thoughts. He hated his own thoughts, hence... work. Merr rested his other hand on her waist and tilted a head at her. "You've always been a bad influence on me."

"No idea, I think people go tot he beach?" She said with a shrug of her shoulders. With his hand on her waist, she smirked a bit more as she listened to his comment. "It's what I'm good at doing." She said as she played with his hair. "And you know I can make you feel good too." It didn't have to be with sex. Zel knew when she got high he could feel it. so she wondered how it would feel with her and him in the same room.

"I may be ahead of you on that." He raised his glass and took another sip. He didn't outright say that the bottle had been full when he got home that evening. If she knew how much of his income was spent on alcohol she might have a thing or two to say. Merritt chuckled slightly, he was also feeling very lucky the junior associate hadn't said anything about their evening together. It was something she could definitely use against him if she really wanted.

She came to take his glass for the moment as she shook her head. "In other ways." SHe said as she came to look at him for the moment. His glass in her hand as she played with his hair. "I made you feel good the other day didn't I?" She said when they both fucked at the same time. Her nose came to nuzzle against his neck. Wo was she to judge him for drinking so much, when she knew she was going to increase her drug use because of all the sudden changes.

"It was definitely different." Merr admitted, he closed his eyes a moment as she dropped close to him. "In more ways than one. I'm lucky my father gives me a heads up 24 hours before a drug test." After all, he was in a legitimate business field. Luckily, alcohol never lasted that long to come up on tests and anything else could be wiped by clean slate. Still, he tended to avoid drugs because... well, alcohol was easier to come by, legal and did the job for him.

She rolled her eyes. "I'm still going to kill him." She said with no hint that she was joking. Because she wasn't. Her hand came through his hair a little more. Merr would be able to feel that anger inside her when she thought about what had happened to him. No child should go through. Maybe it's why she was suddenly protective of Morgan.

"No, you won't." Merritt said, brushing his hand across her cheek and turning her head to look at him. "Merritt Yates Jr. is a very powerful man and something even I can't defend you against. Trust me. If I could... he'd be long dead already. All it takes is a call." And Digger probably could, but the fallout from it would be disastrous.

She thought for a moment. "Millie." She said looking to Merritt for the moment. "The woman wants so bad to get on my good side." She said as she slowly kissed at Merritts neck.

"That would be even worse." Merr told her. "He's one of the few untouchables in the city. You should know this. And your own people help protect him... and the entire firm. Like we protect them." He closed his eyes as she kissed at him. "As much as I hate the man... he's too important right now." Both the CoD and The Wire would have words if the man who was now the President of the law firm that protected them both suddenly ends up dead. It would be bad by the neutral party, but by a Cyberman? The war would escalate ten fold.

Zel came to bite at Merritts neck when he told her the facts. She grumbled softly against his skin that was between his teeth. Only to pull away, but soon her lips came back to his neck again as she sucked on his skin. Leaving that red mark for the moment. When she was done, she came to look at him as she brushed his hair back. "You know, no matter what. You'll always be the first." She said as she kissed along his neck and earlobe.

Merritt hummed slightly with a small wince at her bite. Not because it hurt, she wasn’t trying to hurt him. “The first?” He asked, his hand slowly running up her side.

She came to look at him as she smiled. "You're the first person I ever cared about. " She said as she came to tug at his tie until it was off, his jacket (if he was wearing one) would be slipped off soon after as she came to press into him a it more. Her nose brushing against his as her lips barely grazed against his own. "The first boy, I ever had a crush one." She said teasing him lightly. "The first boy I ever loved." Sh said as she gave him a kiss finally on his lips.

A hand slipped into her hair as her lips met his. Eyes fluttered shut as he savored that connection. There was a passion behind his kiss, and he shared her love, but it wasn’t love, it was something else. Something beyond romance, more than best friends, soulmates maybe? Merr couldn’t classify how he felt for her. He was happy she was with her boyfriend. Happy she found love. He didn’t seek that with her, but when she kissed him there was this need. They were really screwed up. His lips parted to deepen the kiss, as his fingers slipped under her shirt and ran along the small of her back.

When he came to deepen that kiss, she couldn't help but let out a low moan of enjoyment. The feel of his hands under her shirt and against her skin felt good. Pulling her lips away from his, her shirt came up and over her head and soon tossed to the side. Leaving that blue bra in show as she came to kiss him once more. The feel of her tongue lapping over his lightly as she came to undo his shirt.

She loved Jason, there was no denying that and it scared her. But with Merritt. It was something else. Something stronger. Was there something beyond love? Or was it something that they and they only shared? They were both damaged, cut from the same fucked up cloth it felt. It was like they had this invisible string, a tether that pulled them to each other no matter what. She felt it with Jasin as well, but with Merritt it was different. Beyond.

Slowly, she brought her hands to the side of his face as she pulled away and stared at him. "I love you. Always." he said as she rubbed at his lower lip softly.

“I love you too, Zee.” He slipped his hands under her legs and lifted her up as he got up from his chair. Merritt moved around the corner to his bedroom and laid her gently on the bed. “We’re not having sex.” He told her as he pulled off his shirt and lifted his under shirt over his head, letting the items fall to the floor.

When he came to bring his hands under her legs and lift her, she wrapped her arms around his neck. Letting her take her around the corner and to his bedroom. Once she was lowered he came to look watch him as he removed his shirt and let it fall to the floor. Her frame sitting up as she came to pull at the belt on his pants. "I know." She said softly as she pushed his pants down. Wanting him to be just in his briefs.

Her own sweats coming off her hips,as those blue low hip hugging panties came into view. Her hands roamed up his stomach and chest, before coming to the back of his neck and pulling him back down to kiss her again.

He lowered to the bed with her and returned her kiss. His arms wrapped around her, holding her close. Slowly the kiss broke and he rested his forehead on hers, laying next to her in the bed. “I keep thinking about that time in High School when you showed up after a bad night. I still thought you were a hallucination at the time, but I hadn’t seen you in forever. I felt so lost... but you sat with me all night. We didn’t really talk... I couldn’t touch you... but you were there.” Merr took in a ragged breath, trying to keep his emotions steady. “You make me feel not as lost. Like my compass.”

"I remember that night." She said turning over to face him. "The guy I was sleeping with got jealous and hit me a few times. I couldn't go to the hospital, so I went to you instead." She said bringing her hand through his hair once more. "You were--are my safe place." She said softly as she gave him another kiss.

“I was always afraid to date and bring them home. I always thought somehow they’d just know.” Merr savored her kiss. Why did it have to take so long to find you? She was the only one he could talk to about his past. Because she knew. Because she wouldn’t judge him like everyone else.

"I don't know." She said to the question he was thinking as she came to roll over and have her frame straddling his as she looked down at him. "Do you think... Our lives would have been different if we found each other when we kids?" She asked as she brushed her red hair from her face. Her hands moving up and down his chest.

Merritt laughed. “Definitely. Do you know how many times I wished you were real so we could just run away together?” He asked, looking up at her. “If I had known I wasn’t alone... who knows what could have been different.”

"How many times?" She asked as she came to lean down and brush her nose against his. "I still don't know how this works, or why it happened to us. But I'm glade it did." She said as she came to lightly role her hips against him a bit more. "We wouldn't be so fucked up?" She said as she came to lean down and kiss him once more. Her hips still grinding against his.

“Too many.” Merr replied. “And I don’t know if not fucked up... maybe less so? Maybe more healed? Though you seem to be making progress.” He said with a small smile. He closed his eyes for a moment at the grind of her hips. Mental blocks and too much drinking left him soft for the time, but it did still feel good. “Would you have done it? Run away with me?” Yea, even with his high tolerance he was in the ‘what could have been’ state of being drunk.

When he said she was making progress, Zel swallowed down for the moment. "Until I fuck it up." She said as she kept grinding into him. She knew he was soft, but that wasn't the point. It was just something she wanted to do. Needed to do really. When he ased if she would have run away with him, she nodded her head. "I would of. Without a second thought."

“If you think that way you will.” He said with a small smirk. “You’re the one of us who’s got the best chance right now.” Merr told her, resting his hand on her waist. “So just don’t fuck it up.” He honestly hoped she could. Because then maybe he could too.

Because that wasn't anymore pressure put on her. Already, she knew she was going to have to talk to Izzy soon, to either increase her vials or give her the stuff Digs took. Anything to help her deal with all the changes she was dealing with so quickly. "Right..." She said swallowing down. "I'll try."

He could feel her stress. “And you’re not alone.” Merr assures her. “You need support? I’m here.” He reached out and took her hands in his. “We’ll make sure this works.” He half rolled his eyes. “I’m sure he will as well, but I promise. I’ll be here when you start to freak out. We’ll figure out this connection more and you won’t have to have a breakdown without me again.” He paused, arching a brow. “Though... it sounds like he was able to talk you down.”

She listened to him for the moment. Only to nod her head. "Merr... I'm scared." She admitted to him. "And Jason knows it, but he won't push it because I keep telling him I'm fine, when I'm not." She said resting her head into his chest. "Yeah, he was able to calm me down. But what happens when he can't?" She said burying her face in his chest as she held back tears.

“If he can’t. Then I’ll be there.” Merritt assured her. “Because even though you’re with him. We’re in this together.” He pulled her down and gave her a soft kiss. “Because when one of us fails... we both fail.” For some reason their lives had been linked. That was his life now. He wouldn’t make her go through it alone again.
