Who: Erik and Gaz
What: Waiting and worrying
When: After her 'training' with Logan
Where: The Garnier household
Rating/Warnings: Possibly high
Status: In Progress

Erik hates to be a cliché, sitting by the fire with his tea and fretting while his wife is out living her life. But Gaz does get up to some dangerous things, and even if she can heal faster than should be humanly possible, Erik worries.

So while Gaz is out, he decides to make dinner for them both, and to feed Aisha and Gaz's piglet. At least that will keep him busy.

	She comes home bloody and her clothes in tatters, but looking no worse for the wear. Her skin is hot and she smells like sulphur, but now she knows. She's a tank. She can't be killed. "Erik?" (Reply to this) (Thread)

	"In the dining room," he calls back, shooing the animals out so he and Gaz can have dinner in peace. At least Aisha hasn't trying to eat Samus yet, that's a blessing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I should shower," she murmurs. She doesn't want him to be upset; she did this to make sure she could defend him, defend all the things she loves. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"If you feel you must, but I'm sure you're fine. Nothing that would bother -- " As he comes out into the hall to greet her, he freezes at the sight of her clothes, torn practically to shreds and covered in blood.

"Gazlene, my love, what on earth has happened to you?" He rushes to take her into his arms and holds her tight, kissing her hair and clinging to her like she might vanish if he lets go.

	She wraps her arms around him, feeling immediately safe and like she could be upset if she wanted to. She's not, she's more exhilarated than anything else, but she loves that the option is there. "I ... can't die." She chooses her words carefully. "I checked." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Knowing that you can't die suggests you had someone try to kill you." His fingers dig into her back to the point of bruising her, if it were possible to leave lasting bruises. He wants to wring the neck of whoever agreed to go along with this, and though he's relieved that no harm has come to her, the thought of someone hurting his beloved makes him furious.

	"To be fair, I asked him to." She looks up at Erik, feeling small and impossibly fragile next to him. "I ... wanted to be sure. In case I have to defend you." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Gazlene." It comes out a sob and he buries his face against her neck. "Oh my love, I'm so grateful that you're safe, that you're not hurt. I don't know what I'd do without you." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She's expected this whole time that he'll be angry with her for trying. "I don't either, which is why I tried. I can't lose you, Erik. What if some zombies or something try to get you? I have to know what I'm capable of. And I do now." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Zombies." He huffs a laugh through his tears and presses soft kisses to her face. "Then we'd fight them off together, wouldn't we? Because we love each other, you see me at my most tender. But I can be a violent man, my love. Especially if any sort of creature, supernatural or otherwise, tried to harm a hair on your perfect head." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She chuckles and wraps her arms around him a little tighter. "Have I told you that you're perfect? I just ... I'm scared of losing you." She doesn't have Dreams anymore, but a nightmare of his loss haunts her. It's the only thing she's truly scared of. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"Why, because I'm just as terrible as you are when angered?" Erik teases gently and kisses her hair.

"I'm terrified of losing you, too. I hoped that marrying you might help ease those fears, but it's just made them stronger. Not that you'd leave me, not as much that, but that something would take you from me.

So I'm glad, in the end, that you're indestructible. It will help me worry less. But it doesn't help the urge to throttle whoever you tested this theory out with."
