Scars (Matt).
*Takes place after the most current plot*

Matt had spent a lot of time at Shelly's place, but she'd never been to his. She knew where it was but it always just seemed easier for Matt to pop by her place with their mutual weird hours. Matt also had an uncanny ability to 'just be in the neighborhood' with cheeseburgers from Mac's. It was nice and made her feel really comfortable. There hadn't been too many solo nights, but Shelly'd gotten to where she felt good about being alone again. Dracula's creepy card had set her off, but things had evened backout.

Until the shenanigans with Greg. That had not only been infuriating because Greg was a friend, but it had also rattled Shelly. Dracula was screwing with all her friends, it seemed and the more she thought about it, the more the fading scars on her throat seemed to hurt. Shelly couldn't sleep for the ache, for thinking about it, for getting pissed off and also for being scared. After restlessly trying to sleep for a few hours she finally gave up, got dressed, and headed down to Matt's.

The irony that she was going to Dracula's son at two in the morning for solace didn't escape her.

	"I think that's technically called dating, Matt. And it's a two-way street. I just like the idea of tracking on something more than hookups and magic. You're stubborn and impulsive but you get it. That's pretty goddamn rare." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I want more than hook-ups and magic, too, Shelly. This is new for me, though. I didn't expect to meet anyone like you at all." he says. "My life has been pretty simple up to now. I find a rogue supernaturals, I kill them and I move on." he says. "Now, there's the Midnight Sons, there's you and there's...Dracula." he says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"And the goal of how to get rid of Dracula. Because we have to. I...what he did to Greg scared the shit of me. What if he goes after Michelle next? Or Lynch? No, no if. When. And if he tries something with me..."

She took a deep breath.

"I'm a doctor. I help sick people. I do voodoo healing and a few other things from time to time. I'm trained for the supernatural...but I never expected to be this thick into it. I want to help you get rid of Dracula. I want you free of him."

Matt looks away from Shelly. He knows that what she's saying is true, though he doesn't want to it be. Dracula isn't going to stop until he gets whatever he wants, which they still don't even know.

"Shelly, Dracula is my responsibility. When the time comes, I'm going to deal with him and end it. That's how it has to be. I'm not bringing the rest of you into it." Matt tells her.

	"Too late. I'm already in it and I dare say Greg would agree with me. Look, thing one we're going to have to deal with if we're trying this dating thing: we're in stuff together. If our positions were reversed, you wouldn't let me handle him alone." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"That's...different." Matt says, stopping himself before his chivalry got him into trouble. "I've never been big on bringing other people into things I think I can handle on my own." Matt says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"We can and we will. However, we need to work on your throat first. I think I left the cure in my bedroom. Should we go and find it?" he grins. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I've a feeling we're going to find a lot more than the cure." She grinned at him and moved her feet from his lap. "Lead the way, magic man." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"The power of Matt compels you and all that." he grins, taking her hand and leading her off to his room. Whisper chuffs and settles in for a nap...and tries to ignore the sounds coming out of the room only moments later. (Reply to this)(Parent)
