WHO: Alex & Lorna
WHERE: A random cafe in the City
WHEN: Friday, after Alex has broken up with Scatty and gotten punched by Scott and Josh
WARNINGS: None
SUMMARY: Alex and Lorna meet in a cafe to catch up. Alex sulks.
FORMAT: Para

Alex shows up at the cafe five minutes ahead of schedule. He's earlier than Lorna, so he slides onto a seat and waits for her, staring broodily out at passers-by. His shades are on to hide the two-and-a-half bruises he's currently sporting, courtesy of Scott and Scathach and a baby one from Josh. He's briefly contemplated staying in his room the entire weekend until they fade but he did agree to meet Lorna before all of that happened and he doesn't want to blow her off-- she'll know something is up.

Besides, maybe she'll cheer him up.

He let some of the worry bleed onto his face, reaching out to close his hand over hers.

"I know, but I'd hate to find you in an alley again the way you were that night."

She watched him as he did that, wondering why he had to bring this up. Why.

"It won't happen again. I'll make sure of it."

because he loves her

He paused for awhile, clearly skeptical. Alex would never understand what Apocalypse had done to her, but that didn't mean he would stop trying.

"If you say so..."

he will mend her broken heart that he broke

"It's not like it happens much in the future, right?" she told him grimly. Honestly, the only reason that even happened was because of Jono.

Right.

Right?

Right.
