Chapter One: You Were Right About Me
Molly Hooper was angry. That in itself was a feat, it took to upset the woman, and right now she was very upset. Marching down the street and pounding on the door where she knew the woman was waiting, she shifted her weight side to side as she waited for the door to open. The moment it did she pushed her way past a very shocked seductress and paced the room.
She didn't say anything at first, just kept pacing, realizing that she had come down here in a rage, but hadn't planned anything to say once she actually got there. She was sure a part of her was hoping Irene wasn't home and wouldn't answer her door. But as such, it wasn't her luck she was now forced to speak her mind. The thought terrified her.
"Molly, so nice to see you," Irene said politely, a touch concerned and confused at the woman's over active state.
"Irene, you were right about me," Molly blurted out, seemingly ignoring or not hearing the greeting.
Irene looked at her in shock. "What on earth are you talking about?" she asked.
"What you said yesterday, that I'm meek and quiet and let people walk all over me."
Irene pursed her lips. Now she remembered. She hadn't meant them negatively, only a statement of fact, trying to help Molly balance the pros and cons of her personality. Unfortunately, the didn't get to very many pros before the conversation was forced to a halt by an emergency at the hospital.
"That's all true, I've been hearing it all my life, but despite all that, I'm not useless you know." Her last phrase was said with a huff. "I can do things, I help people. I don't always speak my mind, I rarely protest, but I'd rather people walk all over me than watch them get hurt by my words."
She paused in her pacing just in time for Irene to catch her hand and pull her to face her.
"You never let me finish the other day Molls. That's what I love about you. You're delicate and precious and so very kind hearted. I just don't want to lose you because of it." Irene pressed a kiss to Molly's forehead and felt the woman relax beneath her.
"This is what I get for jumping to conclusions," Molly muttered.
Irene smiled and stroked her cheek. "Dear, I wouldn't have it any other way."
Hello All! So this my first time writing MollyxIrene, and really my first time writing Irene. I'm sorry if either of them is terribly out of character, or if this really isn't any good. Still, I hope you enjoyed, thank you so much for reading!
