Hello My Lover (Lian)
Morgaine, to put it simply, was going to kill him. So would James.

His only advantage would be that his doppelganger would quite likely die first, when they realized that Damien had slipped away from them at some point.

For the first time in his life, Damien Wilson flew on a /commercial/ plane in /coach/. His mother would have a fit over that alone, but this mission was of the utmost importance. He did rented a car under an assumed name at Star City International airport and then drove through the streets to his destination. Damn, he hated American traffic laws. Passing by Outsiders HQ was surreal, knowing that any of them could be on the streets at any time. If they found him, they would probably see fit to kill him for the wounds he'd inflicted months ago.

In a way, today's trip is an attempt to begin the healing of those wounds.

He parks the car six blocks from the apartment address James gave him and uses the time to meditate and center himself. He's going to need to be fast at this to keep from being seen. He must be ready for any opposition between himself and his target.

And he must be ready for his wife's anger, and even her hate.

When night fell, Damien made his way across the rooftops to Lian's apartment building and scouted the area. The lights were off. He couldn't be certain if she was home or not, so he had to risk it.

Minutes later, after successfully getting a window open, Damien sneaks into Lian's home, much the same as she did to his months ago when this entire thing began. Now they were even.
He waits inside for her to return, hoping that she is still well.

"I'm going to get you some things for your leg," she said. "I'll be in in a minute."

She went to the supply cabinet in the kitchen, getting some things for Damien's leg.

A couple of minutes later, she walked into the bedroom, supplies in hand.

Damien eyes are closed and he is very still, at least until she walks in. Then he speaks.

"Your center of balance is off, Beloved." he teases.

Pause.

"You didn't leave me to die back there, though I know you must hate me so. Why?" Damien asks.

"You try being pregnant. Then we can talk about your center being off-balance."

She sat down on the bed, going over her supplies. She was quiet for a long moment before speaking again.

"I..I don't hate you, Damien." She said.

"I know I should. And goddmanit, I tried. But I don't. I can't."

"I know how that is. I tried hating you for three weeks. I think I cried myself to sleep every other night at the least. And each day, breakfast consisted of a glass of absinthe, a glass of scotch, and chasing those down with tequila shots.

James and Morgaine were not happy with my lack of focus. I think I might have seen actually worry lines in my mother's face." Damien says.

"I didn't care about anything until I was reminded of...my goals. Then I started existing, somewhat." he says.

"But I picked up the phone and dialed your number a million times before I hung up again." he says.

Lian stared at her feet.

"I..I packed a suitcase," she said. "A couple of weeks after...everything, I came home from a doctor's appointment and threw a bunch of clothes in a suitcase.

I was going to leave. I was going to just throw everything away and leave.

I had this whole...dialogue planned out in my head. I had this entire speech on how we should just run away somewhere. Leave everything behind and go somewhere where no one would find us.

It's absurd, I know."

"You have no idea how badly I would like to say yes to that. Running away with you somewhere that we can't be found." he says.

"I thought about leaving the League as well. I got as far as telling everyone I'd be hiking the Appalachian Trail for a week or so." Damien says, laughing at that reference.

"James insisted on coming or he'd tell Morgaine. The plan was quickly scrapped." he says.

Lian sighed, lying back on the bed.

"This whole thing...this whole thing sucks, Damien.

Damnit, why does have to be so hard?"

Damien moves closer to Lian, holding her as though no time has passed and placing one hand on her swollen tummy.

"It does suck, but...we will have two beautiful babies to show for it." he says.

"Have you thought about names?" he asks.

Lian leaned into him, resting her head on his shoulder.

"Yes, we will." She said.

"I haven't. I haven't sat down long enough to think about it, I guess."

"Then we shall think of baby names now." Damien says, kissing her forehead.

"For a boy...Liam. For a girl...Amara." he says.

"I like Donna. Donna...Rose? For a girl. I would like to honor my sister, if possible." he says.

"For a boy, Liam Alexander would be good, in my opinion." he says.

"I like Donna Rose," Lian said.

There was a long pause.

"What about...what about Cerdian? Ceridan Alexander?"

"Cerdian...would not be my first choice, but I would accept if you like it." Damien says.

"Are you scared, Lian? About having children? I admit that I am." he says.

"I do," she said. "He's still my best friend."

Even if he did almost succeed in ripping her heart out.

"I'm terrified, Damien."

"You will be a wonderful mother, Lian. I already know it." he says.

"You are fierce, brave and protective. You are strong and fearless. I am glad that you are the mother of my children." he says, leaning in now to kiss her lips.

"Thank you, Damien. I just really hope that I don't screw it all up."

She kissed him.

"I love you."

"I love you, too." he says, losing himself in her embrace, yet trying to be careful of her stomach.

He chuckles, shifting so that she can be comfortable.

Damien kisses her more, his lips finding her jaw and neck.

"Have I told you how beautiful you are tonight?" he asks.

"You are so beautiful, Lian. My heart melted when I saw you tonight. I wanted you right then, the same as I wanted you the moment I first laid eyes upon you." he says.

"You are my wife, my lady and my lover. That will never change. I promise." he says.
