Re: Queens: Evie/Wren/Luke
[All things considered, Luke thought, this hadn't gone too badly. Maybe Evie still wasn't okay but none of them were, and at least she'd accepted their help, and at least she might have a job, someplace a lot safer than Gotham. He noticed the way Wren's eyes narrowed, and he knew how she got about other women because he got the same way about other men. Jealousy was, for better or worse, just part of who they were. But she really, really had nothing to worry about, and the look he gave her was knowingly fond before she agreed to keep him in the loop. Visibly relieved, he nodded. He hated being kept in the dark. It made him feel helpless.
As for taking Evie home, he knew there was no way Wren would've let her walk. It just wasn't going to happen.] Exactly. Besides, what good are friends if they can't give each other rides every now and then? [Luke glanced towards the stairs at the same time as Wren when Lia cried, but since he was the designated driver he'd let her handle this one. For a moment he worried that it might be too much, the crying, all on her own, but he didn't have much of a choice and he reassured himself that it would be fine. He wouldn't be gone long. No big deal.]
Hey. [He wrinkled his nose.] I always drive safe. [He waited until she'd said her goodbyes, and then he shuffled closer to Wren and leaned in for a kiss.] I'll be right back. [Just that, a whisper and a brush of fingers, and he went to get his keys.]
