AU Remix- Running away is not a good plan
And she has been freaking out the past few days. It's not her fault she has no idea what to do. She has been covering up her tracks and hiding evidence of her 'condition'.

And trying to talk herself out of doing something stupid. She wants to run away from this. But she knows that no matter how far she runs she'll have to come back.

So she gives up and flops on the couch and kicks her suitcase in a show of 'maturity'.

	She manages to catch him off guard with that. Not that hard in his current state. Trying to smile back at her, he finds he can't really. He's just too stuck in the realization that he'd made a huge blunder. One that shouldn't have happened at all, and could've been avoided. "Well...I'm not letting you run anyway. Reason or no," he replies firmly. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She just gave him a slight smile. "I figured." She leans against him again so she can cover up how much she has stressed herself out so far. "We'll figure something out." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I hope so," he mumbles. He pulls her in and wraps his arms around her, resting his head against hers. As long as she couldn't see how lost and defeated he looked he thinks. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She's trying to not yawn. The need to sleep is very strong but she manages to hold off. She doesn't feel like she should rest. "We're both smart. Once we decide what we want we'll find a way to make it happen." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I guess." He needs to think of something to occupy himself, he was letting himself drown in regrets and anger at himself. No, it wasn't the time for that yet. "Okay well...you'll need to stop working, we'll find you a doctor then you decide what you'll do. But...tell me about this stuff Sarah. No leaving me out for whatever reason you think of."

She pulls back just so she can look at his face. She gibes him a very small smile.

"Okay. I'll just move to one of my safe houses that I know only you know about. So I can stay safe.... And we'll figure out what we can do about the Old Man but don't you dare go all 'Rawr I am the night' and try it on your own. It's dangerous I need you to stay as safe as you can given your calling," she says very seriously.

"It.... it would kill me if you got hurt because you got distracted or something." She kisses him again, this time shyly because she feels so uncertain.

"Good idea, lay low and if they go looking for you I'll deal with it." He seems to mull over her condition, because that had been his exact plan she'd just vetoed. "Don't be silly Foxy. With you out of the game, I have to do it on my own. Besides, your safety is the important one."

He gently kisses her back and tries to give her a reassuring smile. "You already saw, I don't die so easily."

	"Yes but it's still early on.... I might be okay for a few weeks if we act fast," she points out. Already she can imagine her stomach getting in the way. She thinks she wants to keep the baby but she's afraid to say that right now. She doesn't want something to take this away from her. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"If we want it done well and as safely as possible it'll take longer and I don't want to risk you," he points back. He doesn't have any idea about what she plans to do. And he doesn't want to think of it just yet in case he pressures her in some way for a decision. It should be her decision. But he'll take this time to cut the blackmailing off as soon as possible.

	His logic is very sound. Damn, you win this round. "Okay." She rests her head against him. "I'll make my choice soon. I just need.... time. To get used to this. You do too I imagine." God she's so tired.She doesn't want to sleep yet though. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Stroking her hair, he tries to reassure her, "I'll...try not to get hurt too much." Although he'll likely be a little more reckless with his own health than normally anyway. In his mind he'd screwed up badly, and making things better was the priority, not himself. "Alright. Tell me when...you have an idea." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	At least he isn't promising to not get hurt. She'd get upset with him otherwise. She would though fuss after him given the chance. "Just give me a few days. I haven't even slept." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

He knew that wasn't a promise he could keep, so he hadn't bothered making it. You didn't take on a mob family that large by yourself pretty much and expect no injuries.

"It's understandable, and I didn't mean you need to know right away. I just wanted you to keep me updated that's all.

He knows he won't get any sleep tonight. Between mapping out scenarios and plans for whatever decision she makes on top of getting her out of this blackmail thing as quickly as possible (his current plan in action wasn't fast enough for this), there'd be no time for sleep.

	"If you need help that you feel safe letting me do...." She's gives him a shy smile. She doesn't know how protective he will get. Especially since she just has this feeling she'll be keeping the baby. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I'll ask you if I have any questions about their operation," he reassures her. He can't tell what she's going to decide, and he tries not to think about what he'd pick if it was up to him. This was his responsibility and whatever she decided he'd accept and help her with. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"So just like before just with me no longer stealing and now hiding," she says with a slight nod. Of course she was still freaked out by this whole thing. It was comforting to know he planned on helping her though. She knew it was a good idea to not run. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Except you don't have to worry about going back to them later. So the danger of them hurting you if they find out is lessened," he points out. He was a little hurt she had even considered running, especially from him, but he keeps that to himself now. She was already stressed enough. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	outfoxing 2012-03-07 04:42 pm UTC (link)
	"And they won't find me," she glances up so she can give him a small smile. She's so tired though that it doesn't quite go that far. "I trust you." It's why she didn't run really. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"And you have me around, you'll be safe," he assures her. It's getting hard to hide all his conflicting emotions from her, and he'll probably spend most of the night taking it out on criminals he finds. But he had to keep it together in front of her. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	It was a rare day that she needed someone else to be the tough one for her. This is one of those rare times. And the bad guys shouldn't be getting into trouble if they can't handle getting smacked around by the local vigilantes. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	cantkeepmeout 2012-03-07 05:11 pm UTC (link)
	Those criminals will be smacked harder than usual now. Not like they didn't deserve it. "...Sorry Sarah." He can't look at her right now. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Sorry? For what?

Oh. Her mind is getting hazy from stress but she still gives him a small thump. "Don't be sorry. This is just..... something that happened. I don't think it's necessarily bad but it's just something that I have no idea what I should do.... and I was very involved in what caused this. So you shouldn't be sorry."

Her speech doesn't come out as eloquent as she would like it to.

Her speech gets a grunt of acknowledgement but not of agreement. While he appreciates her not jumping to blame him, a big part of him thinks she should.

"Yes I should, I ruined things. But...I'll do my best to make things better I promise." He'll try his best to make up for this, even if it comes at large costs to himself. You took responsibility for your mistakes, that's how it was.

	"You did not," she says a little loudly. His attitude right now isn't one she can deal with."This isn't your fault Robin. It just..... it just happened. You didn't hurt me. I'll be okay." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

He really doesn't agree, but he can tell that he's making things worse now so he tries to smooth things over. "Sarah, I'll figure out a way to deal with everything. Don't...don't worry about anything just leave it to me. It's my responsibility." Of course he'd help her either way, but this meant he'd try and do everything by himself. She didn't need to worry about things, it was his fault after all.

	She just gives him a Look. She'll worry if she wants to. Okay she'll worry anyways. Because of the reason she couldn't just run. She isn't ready to admit that though because everything is scary today. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	cantkeepmeout 2012-03-07 10:37 pm UTC (link)
	Unfazed by her Look, Thomas tries to give her a reassuring smile. It doesn't come across, but he makes the effort. What had he done? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	outfoxing 2012-03-08 07:25 pm UTC (link)
	He told her not to worry. That automatically means he's going to do something risky. Doesn't he know that? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	cantkeepmeout 2012-03-08 07:41 pm UTC (link)
	Of course he was going to do risky things. Many of them. The situation called for it. But he'll try not to panic her. And he probably won't be telling her ahead of time any of the dangerous stuff he'll be doing. (Reply to this)(Parent)
