Who: Cable and Jean
What: talking
Where: Jean's house in Milan
When: the early afternoon
Warning: cursing

Jean had passed out on the couch. She had never in her life been so drunk that she'd passed out wherever she happened to be sitting. At least not until then.

It wasn't even logical, but she just found herself wanting one drink, and then another, and then Nathan had called and she'd finished her first bottle.

She was wearing pajamas, and there were three empty wine bottles lined up against the side of the couch.

Cable chuckled softly as he landed outside her house. He had come here part by Portkey and part by flight, to see if she was okay.

With gentle touch, he reached out and felt her still asleep, and slipped inside past her locks.

When he was near her, he gently eased her body, removing hangover sickness and the physical weariness of it, and then gently woke her, starting food cooking with his mind.

"Jean? Are you okay?"

He kept his voice quiet, and gentle.

	Jean mumbled and hid her face. I don't want to talk. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He gently touched her hair. "It's okay, really. And if you do not want to talk, very well." He kept things cooking and moving and sat next to her. "But I have a few things to say and I hope you will listen." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She nodded and sat up, pushing her limp hair out of her face. "Fine." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He touched her gently on the arm, concern in his eyes. "I'm worried about you." Food on a plate floated out, along with orange juice. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"How am I supposed to be acting? I mean, I was possessed for God knows how long. then I get swept up here when I meant to be going home. And now there's a man who is exceptionally like my ex-husband, but cute and not as worn down by the world, the way he was when I fell in love with him."

But she wasn't younger, and she was worn down, and now she felt it for the first time since her arrival.

	He could feel the edge of that and he sighed and warmth and love rolled across the room toward her. "I just worry about you, and for you. You have always been the most passionate woman I know, and I hope that things will be better for you, now. Even with him here." Worry was there in his eyes, gently. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She grumbled, and took a drink of the juice he'd given her. "It's not his fault. I had unrealistic ideas about the benevolence of the world. I was willfully naive." She poked at the food a little. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thelonggame 2008-11-05 09:47 am UTC (link)
	He sighed softly. "I am more worried about you. I just want you to have the good life you want." he took a deep breath. "And I think you wont be able to fully move on until yuo talk to him, truly find what your own ideas and own chocies are. Until then, it will always hang over your head."

	"I just want to figure out who I am. I shouldn't have even gotten involved with Bruce, and I definitely don't think talking to Scott is going to help anything at all. Let Emma deal with him." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Cabe facepalmed. "That wont help at all, will it?" He shook his head. "I know some of what you are going thriough. I understand it. And you need to face those people and answer those questions that are in you, before you turn inward." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	nomorephoenix 2008-11-05 10:35 am UTC (link)
	"Fine. I'll talk to Scott if it will make you happy." She sighed. Dammit. She'd known it was coming, she had just hoped it wasn't coming soon. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'm sorry... He hugged her, and hoped this would go well. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	nomorephoenix 2008-11-05 10:51 am UTC (link)
	She hugged him back, sighing raggedly into his shoulder. It's not your fault. I just don't want to do this. She stroked his shoulders. Thank you for coming to check on me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thelonggame 2008-11-05 10:55 am UTC (link)
	He smiled. I hope it goes well. He chuckled. Come curse me out if it does not. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	nomorephoenix 2008-11-05 10:57 am UTC (link)
	"Awww, you know I will." She laughed a little and kissed his cheek. When she pulled back she looked less upset. "Think I need a shower." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thelonggame 2008-11-05 11:01 am UTC (link)
	He chuckled. "And food. I will keep it hot." He winked. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	nomorephoenix 2008-11-05 11:03 am UTC (link)
	She laughed and ruffled his hair as she went to the shower. Her robe floated from her room to the bathroom. Make yourself at home (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thelonggame 2008-11-05 11:16 am UTC (link)
	He laughed and steadfastly did nott hink of her showering. Stupid brain. By the time she was done, he was thinking of plans for the future. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	nomorephoenix 2008-11-05 11:18 am UTC (link)
	Jean snickered and wandered out of the shower, wrapped up in a very warm, very not sexy bathrobe. She settled onto the couch, wrappign her hair in a towel. Still planning everything nine moves ahead? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He blinked and peered at her then sighed. When ti comes to kids, and sex, often, yes. He poked her, gently. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She laughed and poked him back, starting on her food. Domino's a lucky woman, then. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thelonggame 2008-11-05 11:23 am UTC (link)
	I hope she always thinks so He grinned at her and settled back, happier now. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	nomorephoenix 2008-11-05 11:25 am UTC (link)
	I do too. Is she still nervous about the test tomorrow? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thelonggame 2008-11-05 11:26 am UTC (link)
	Yes. It will be a big day, even with me helping. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	nomorephoenix 2008-11-05 11:29 am UTC (link)
	Jean nodded and drank some more juice. A glass of water floated in to hover next to her plate. It will be alright. Between all of us there, nothing is going to happen to your children except a little discomfort. She stroked his hair softly. But you should get back to her if she's nervous.

	Thank you. Holler at me later. And he rose, extending a hand. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	nomorephoenix 2008-11-05 11:44 am UTC (link)
	She stood as well and took his hand, using it to pull him into a hug. Tell Domino I said hello, and that it will be fine. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thelonggame 2008-11-05 11:50 am UTC (link)
	He hugged her back. Will do... mom. And then he was gone, leaving love in his wake. (Reply to this) (Parent)
