The food made Bishop smile slightly.
"Thoughtful as ever. I love you, Artemis."
Bishop began to run his fingers through what hair he could, hoping he could add to her comfort.
"As for the stitches, I don't think you ever need them. You heal too well for it to be worth it."

"I love you too Garrett." I grabbed his arm and pulled him further down so he was basically laying on top of me. "I'm glad you could make it tonight."

Burying his head in the folds of her clothing, Bishop smiles as if to laugh at Nero's nearly innocent sounding remarks about the situation.
"I am as well Artemis, for more reason than one. I'm also staying the night, so you have to deal with me longer."

'Tell him you'll be fine.'
I frowned at myself, listening to Remmi, obviously she was feeling better as well. Maybe it was just needing the blood to stop flowing... my neck also felt better. Sore as fuck but at least the burning had faded.
"I guess I can handle that." I stuck my tongue out at him, smiling as best as I could with a bitch in my ear.

Smiles were all that were shared among them as Bishop laid his face upon hers, kissing her once her tongue enters her mouth again. Gently, or as gently as he could given the circumstances. They were used to showing affection in pain, and every time Bishop saw her his heart was no longer an organ...it was a being. It leaves his body in search of the only companion that could give it full life. That companion was Nero and it was shown every time they touched.
"Someday, we won't be in pain anymore."

That caught us both off guard, Remmi went quiet, knowing she had lost this battle. "... Unfortunately that's not true Garrett, I wish it were.... but it's not."

Bishop chuckles slightly, almost at the morbidity of his response.
"Someday Artemis, when we are old and gray...we won't be able to make anyone but each other angry."

'When we are old and gray...'
That was the first time their relationship had been spoken of in such a long term. Speechless I moved my head to look into his eyes, using a free hand to carefully remove his now blood stained shirt. I guess it was hard to stain black though.
"... Old and gray?" Finally I could say something. |

"Everyone ages Artemis, together or not it happens. It would just be..."
Bishop looks at the ceiling then back to Nero.
"...more enjoyable to be cynical together."

"That's the first time you've ever said anything like that." Granted we had only been together for a short time... but look at how much we have gone through together. And how much we still had to go... because we both knew something would come up, eventually. Because we knew this was just a beginning and that it was enough to fill a lifetime for some people.
I sat up, very lightly touching the back of my head. The cut wasn't very big... especially for how much it bled. Would he still feel the same if he ever saw Remmi...
'You know he wouldn't.'
"Shut up... not right now."

"To think one day I thought I would be used to that. Hopefully it was a comment from someone else that warrants a 'shut up?'"
Bishop smiled as he looked down at the sheets.
"I know it is, but I feel...comfortable with it. Regardless of what the future ACTUALLY holds, I like the present enough to want it to be similar."

"It was the Remmi."
'Step into the white room.'
"The dogs aren't even there."
'Just do it.'
"Uhh... one minute... this isn't going to stop. Want to grab my first aid kit while I um handle this?"

There were much more personal things she could have to handle out of his eyesight, so Bishop nodded his head as he moved from her bed to the familiar drawer in the bathroom. Looking for it, as it had changed locations since last he used it on her. While looking, her heard the sheets move as Nero left the bed to deal with her...problems.

Not very happy with part of myself I climbed out of bed and walked into the dogs room, shutting the door behind me. "What the hell is wrong with you?"
Remmi was now standing in front of me, the burning sensation in my neck nearly disappeared, leaving it just be sore now. She was really fucked up from that attack.
Great... Now I couldn't be as mad at her.
"I'm going to go look into this."
"Bishop is right in the other room, are you crazy?"
"Nero, there is no one better I could leave you with."
"What if he sees you?"
"I'll hide out at NNY's till you tell me it's safe."
"Remmi-"
"Nero, they knew I was coming out, they knew you had a kye... one of them was a kye. We can't just wait on this one, we need to do something." What I didn't know was that Remmi already had a theory, of course she wasn't going to share it with me. And what choice did I have really?
"Fine... but just be careful.. please?"
"I will, stay with Bishop. I'll have NNY call you when I get back."
I watched her walk out of the white room, quietly closing the door behind her... I felt that hallow feeling as I turned to head back into the apartment. Seeing Garrett standing there brought a giant smile to my face.
"I believe you know the drill."

Bishop matched her smile as he sat down at a table and open the kit. Gathering all the usual ingredient for healing that they so often used.
"I think we might actually have to refill this at some point, with all the times we use it."
He motions for Nero to sit down as he pulls the chair opposite him to his side.
