Home Sweet Home (open)
Gotham wasn't a nice town or a pretty one, but it was home and dammit it felt good to be home. Helena was very glad to be back and to be back to work. It was a little difficult explaining why she was gone, but it went reasonably well. She had also missed her own bed. A lot.

Most of all she missed being Huntress. The first night back she was in costume and out patrolling. It felt good to be doing something good again and to put Khandaq behind her. What the hell was she thinking sleeping with Adam? Getting married was keeping her word, which was very important to Helena, but sleeping with him was something else entirely. She really needed to get over this thing she had for the wrong type of guy. It got her in trouble more often than not.

It was the end of a patrol and Helena returned to her apartment. A drink, maybe a little reading and then bed.

Helena returned the kiss for about five seconds before she remembered she was married. She pushed Roy away and broke the kiss.

"I'm married Roy."

"He let you go, Helena." Roy says softly. "What if he decides not to fight for you?"

"He will fight for me Roy and I don't want anyone fighting. That's not the big issue here. I said my vows to him in a church in front of God. Until I get an annulment or a divorce, I won't break those vows even if I were madly in love with you."

"So...you /are/ madly in love with me?" Roy asks playfully. "I knew it."

He chuckles a bit, but when he speaks again, he's serious.

"Helena, please don't keep this up." he implores.

"In your dreams, Roy," she snorted.

Helena sighed. "Keep what up?" she asked. "I am married, Roy. Until there's an annulment or a divorce, I will keep my vows."

"All right, Helena. I'll respect your marriage...for now. But I'm not going to let you stay like this." he says, turning to go.

"We've still got the rest of our lives to look back on this and laugh, you know." Roy says.

"What the hell does that mean? You're not going to /let/ me stay like this? It's my life Roy, not yours. Stay out of it."

"How happy will you be living on the other side of the world from your husband, Helena? Do you really think you'll be fine with a marriage in name only?" he asks.

"It's my life, Roy. I live with my decisions. The fallout isn't for you to fix or deal with. Me. Only me."

"I wouldn't be able to call myself your friend if I let you deal with this alone, Helena. Don't push me away." Roy says.

"I've had enough of you interfering in my life for awhile," she told him. "Let me deal with this. If I need your help I will ask for it."

"I guess I gotta live with that." Roy says, taking a deep breath. She really was pissed about that whole rescue thing. He still didn't get it.

It was like she'd /wanted/ to be there.

"Call me, whether or not you need me." Roy says, and this time, he walks out the door and heads off into the night.

Helena stood there for a few moments and didn't move. Then she grabbed her keys and headed for the bar down the block. There were some drinks with her name on them.
