Two more days to a year that I'm not supposed to be counting. The little Tom Hanks in my soul is marking days without you. Castaway on an island surrounded by an ocean of tears getting deeper daily.

Two months and a week. I miss you. This sucks. Is it bad that I pretend that you PCS'd and will be back before long? Then I remember you're gone and won't be back even if I wished it. And I do. Daily.

Two months, four days. I miss you. Can't listen to Mike and the Mechanics "In The Living Years" anymore. It came on at work yesterday as the last song and I cried.

Bio

Ugh...I hate this part. So I'm super into Sailor Moon...which no one else is...and that's okay. I also really love Items, Escaflowne, Vampire Knight, Fushigi Yugi, Ah My Goddess, K Dramas, Chinese and Tiwanise Dramas as well. I torture people by making them read the TV.

Oh this is where I tell you I'm American...and I just lost a few people but oh well. Trust me if I could afford to live overseas I would. So yeah...that's me.

Siobhan’s heart fluttered and she heard laughter on the other side of the door. She took a shaky step backwards then another she bumped into a dresser and knocked something over. A thud and a bit of a clatter on the floor accompanied the object or objects. It didn't sound like it broke but she turned too quickly and caught her arm on the corner. The dresser won the battle leaving a small scratch that she pulled back from, only too quickly. Stumbling she knocked her shin on what could only be the bed and wincing she fell on to it. Heart still hammering she tried to breathe past the pain of her tight chest and calm down as she lay on the bed.

She could hear the laughter on the other side of the door. A familiar voice told her to bring her ass out then laughter again. That's Joel. Now I want the floor to open up and just swallow me whole. Then Joel told her he'd leave her in there and that he was hungry. Mortified that he witnessed that she gasped for air the panic attack trying to reassert itself for a much different reason this time. Not wanting him to have a reason to link her and Marlin together she propped herself up on her elbows in the bed and looking at the direction of the door in a strained voice she said. “Go ahead. I'll there in a minute.” Siobhan flopped back down on the bed. That was all she really had breath for. She put her arms over her head and tried to focus on breathing in through her nose out through her mouth. Deep even breaths.

Easier said than done. Coming down out of the panic attack was going to throw her into a short crying session and she wasn't going to be able to make it down the stairs till she fully came out of it. Her legs would be jelly and stairs at that point would be suicide. She lifted her shaking hands to fumble through her hair. She'd left it down so it was a thick, curly, wavy mass and as soon as it tangled her fingers she gently pulled them out. Smoothing her hands down her face she blew out a shaky breath that she could tell was a prequel to the end of the attack. Also because even though she couldn't tell she was crying the dampness of her cheeks clearly pointed it out. Good God that's embarrassing!!! Why didn't I run for the stairs and just spare myself the embarrassment?!?! But no I have to run for the bedroom. Hopefully it will pass and he'll never know. I'll just let him think he scared me, which he did. He also doesn't know the other stuff that went on. Calm down. You're safe. Calm down. You're safe. Calm down. You're safe... Arms back over head breathing shakily repeating in her head calm down and that she was safe while trying not to curl into the fetal position.

Waiting on Draco to order and of course other people came into the bar. Pretty Eyes came back and fired off a pretty decent line. I grinned at him. “Now that was a good one, Pretty Eyes.” I winked at him from my position at the bar in front of Draco and turned to the guy who saddled up to the bar and asked for a beer. “Hang on Draco. Plenty of that here. Any kind in particular one?”

And as if it couldn’t get any worse the flash of a gun from yet another patron was not something I was going to let slide. He ordered a Titos, double, neat. Which was fine, it was the lottery ticket comment that set off alarm bells. Fine. But I was still not having anyone armed at my bar. “Alright Dirty Harry cough it up and you can pick it up later.” I held out a hand for the gun. I glance over at the woman who took the last seat at the bar and nodded to her and held up a finger and mouthed “One minute”.

Siobhan studied the oil. She hadn’t gotten very far up the stairs when she saw the oil. Intrigued she moved closer to study it. Someone’s art said a lot about them. Sometimes it’s the only representation of themselves that is present.

She grinned at the subject of the painting. Racing cars. It was actually a very good rendition. The brush strokes evoked the motion of the race and the slight blur effect was reminiscent of a photo. The artist had probably copied off a photo. It leaned slightly toward impressionism but in a good way. It was all very Joel. The cars, the motion in the picture, the color palette and the style that wasn't quite real but had that whimsical feel to it. It just evoked the rush you got behind the wheel. She'd have to ask him if that was why he bought it.

Speaking of Joel where was he? And why did she feel like someone was watching her? Shaking off the creepy feelings that she had fought so hard to get past in therapy for years; Siobhan turned back toward the bedroom and saw something out the corner of her eye. She froze like a deer in headlights or a rabbit that senses a predator.

Gone were the recent weeks of training that she and Paige had been busy with. Back was that old familiar fear that had manifested itself after Genny’s attack. All the memories of the case came rushing back. The group of students who blamed her because it got out that the guy had mistaken Genny for her at the party. That it was supposed to be her that this tragedy happened to. That she should feel guilty about not being there for Genny and how she should have seen this coming.

All those memories that kept her frozen to the spot devoid of the little color she had. Whiter than a sheet, eyes wide and shaking like a leaf in a strong breeze slowly Siobhan turned and letting out a small yelp at the sight of a motorcycle helmet. Her fight or flight response fully kicked into gear in that instant.

Not thinking clearly at this point too overwhelmed by fear she took off like a shot for the bedroom. It was a beautiful leap over the couch and dead sprint to the bedroom to put something between her and whoever that was. Slamming the door she looked for a lock.

No lock. And pitch dark. She knew she was in trouble then.

Yep trouble. The Highlander was TROUBLE. That was blood. Not likely his. I am killing Jessie. That bloody wanker. I paste a smile on my face and take the swords and put them under the shotgun on the wire rack under the counter. I take my leather gloves off and turn and grab a dry clean rag and dip it in the sanitizer and water. Wringing it out till it is just damp I hand it to the Highlander so he can wipe the blood off. “I am going to assume that is from today and from some of the chaos around NYC.” I point to his sleeves. I actually smirk when he asks about the other condition. “I will let you know once it is met, Highlander.” I nod at his mention of debts. To each his own.

I saw Draco walk in and sit down at his regular spot at the other end of the bar closer to the patio. He didn’t mind waiting so I watched Pretty Eyes wince and raised an eyebrow. Did he call me Hair? Seriously? Wow this guy needs some flirting brushup. I slip my right glove off and reach out to lay my hand on his as he listened to the people in the bar. Then he turned around and asked if I knew anything about this alien stuff and he fidgeted with his ring. I reached out and squeezed his hand healing him. “Not much Pretty Eyes. What I do know is you need a brush up on flirting. Think of something and fire it at me here in a second. I need to get Draco’s order.”

I moved over to Draco. “You know I am not wanting to be pushed around tonight. What’s your poison tonight, Draco?”

Siobhan grinned and followed Joel in. “Well I wasn't sure if you had all the proper cookware for me to use so I grabbed what I needed from my apartment.” She put down the bags and handed him the beer. “That what you're looking for, you lush? Go play with your cars unless you’re wanting to help. Seems too domestic for you though. Unless of course you’re enjoying the view.” She grinned and winked as she started unpacking things and lining them out. Preheating the oven, starting on boiling the stock for the soup, the kitchen was a flurry of activity. Humming Plush by Stone Temple Pilots under her breath she worked with a single mindedness.

About 20 minutes later fresh baked salmon with fresh dill, garlic and butter; ginger rice; miso soup and salad, well spinach mostly...exclusively. Siobhan likes spinach. The ‘salad’ is lightly coated with a homemade sesame ginger vinaigrette. Dessert is whipped cream cheese, not super sweet and just the right consistency, with fresh berries layered in muffin tins.

Snapping out of the trance she was in for cooking. She was alone? Where had Joel gone? Well better go find him than start yelling for him. While screaming his name might entertain him she’d rather not go there. She saw a staircase and thought maybe he went to go unpack and possibly even fell asleep. She’d find him and let him know food was ready. Deciding to go on up she climbed the stairs.

So, @ everyone in the bar/everyone who's going to the bar in the story. Was the general plan for that just "meet a few of the characters" and that's it? Cause I'm struggling a bit with my next oc post. Originally, I was going to have a big time-jump after my prologue for Ava but I'm starting to think if there's going to be a time-jump, it might just be like three days after the prologue or something. That being said, if all of our characters were supposed to meet at the bar I'll just have Ava head that way. I never specified where she was in the prologue but I suppose she could easily be in/near New York so she'd be able to make it to the bar. Or she doesn't have to go there at all. I just don't want her story to be isolated from everyone else's for too long. I was going to have her be in NYC after the three-day time-jump in my post anyway. I just want to make sure it's okay with all of you if I make that kind of jump. I don't want to screw up anything.


You're the boss
