Safe For Now

It had been Sven's idea for them to go to Paris. He had been there once with his new bride many years ago, long before Riley was born. He told her they would be able to hide amongst the tourists and locals there. It was large enough to disappear. She couldn't tell him why her and the unconscious man needed to disappear, but he had helped raise her. He knew her and he trusted her. And so, he suggested Paris and gave her money to get there. Luckily for her, both her father and Sven had grown up in a time when many Icelanders didn't use banks. They kept their money hidden at home. This was good. She would not be able to use anything but cash from here on out. Just to be safe though, she emptied her account before they left Iceland on Sven's boat. He took them to Norway and promised to tell her dad she was okay. With a kiss on the forehead, he bid her farewell, telling her to call if they were able to let him and her dad know she was safe. She wasn't sure if she'd be able to, but she promised she'd try.

They took a transcontinental train from there to Paris. It was difficult with Will being unconscious, but she somehow managed. They couldn't risk him waking and alerting Whispers to where they were. Wolfgang joined them in Germany, and together, the three traveled to Paris. It was easier with Wolfgang to move Will. She was careful to keep him sedated throughout the trip.

Now, they stood in a small apartment room that she had rented while Wolfgang stood watch over Will. They closed the blinds and were careful to make sure there was nothing to give away their location before they let Will wake up.

"Hi," he mumbled, still groggy.

"Hi," she smiled at him. "How are you feeling?"

"Starved," he said as his stomach grumbled. They hadn't been able to wake him to eat during the journey, in case in gave their location away.

Wolfgang appeared with sandwiches, and Will felt ravished. He dug in happily, content with not knowing where they were. He didn't ask and he didn't want to know.

"Where are you, Will?" Whispers appeared next to him. "Your friends have done a fine job of hiding you."

"I have no idea," he grinned happily in between mouthfuls. Whispers disappeared disappointed.

"Was that him?" Riley asked.

"Yeah." He looked at Wolfgang and held his hand out for the other man to shake. "Nice to finally meet you in person."

"Yes, especially after we had sex," Wolfgang said.

Will sputtered, remembering the little orgy with Nomi, Wolfgang and Lito. Riley laughed. "It was special," he repeated Lito's words.

"Yes, it was," Nomi appeared next to Wolfgang. "I'm not normally into men, but that was hot." She smirked slightly. "I'm glad you're doing better. Is this place secure?"

"As secure as it can get," Riley said. "We made sure there's nothing that can give our location away. Will won't know where we are."

"So you're safe for now," Nomi nodded.

"What about you?" Wolfgang questioned.

"But don't give your location," Will added hastily.

"We're safe for now too," she said. "We're working on being able to travel with false identities. Amanita knows a guy."

"Be careful," Will warned, his police officer instincts not liking that but knowing it was necessary.

"You too," she said. "I gotta go. Let me know if anything changes."

Will finished eating enough for three people and sighed. "I guess I better go under again," he said.

"Do you have to?" Riley asked. "There's nothing that can give you away here. You'd be safe being awake here."

"We can't risk it," he reached out and touched her face softly. "I can't put you in danger."

She nodded and leaned forward to kiss him while Wolfgang put the next dose of sedative together in the syringe. Riley injected it into his arm, and held him until he was unconscious again.

"We'll find a way to fix this," Wolfgang promised her, watching her. The two were in love, it was obvious to anyone even if they couldn't feel their emotions like he could. It hurt him to see because it reminded him of someone else, someone he was trying very hard not to think about because every time he did...

"How is he?" Kala stepped forward and started checking his heart rate.

"We just put him back under," Riley said, gently caressing his cheek.

"Are you safe here?" Kala asked. Wolfgang noticed she was trying hard not to look at him, but he understood that question was more to him than the other two.

"Yes," he answered quietly. "And you?" He had told her they couldn't be together, that she should marry Rajan, because he was a monster. He didn't deserved her. He didn't deserve to be loved.

"I think so," she replied as she went on to check their medicine supply. "You're running a bit low. I'll overnight some to you today."

"Thank you," Riley said.

Kala shook her head. "We may not all be here physically, but we are all in this together."

"For how long though?" Riley questioned quietly.

"That is up to Ganesha, I suppose," Kala sighed. "I will go get the supplies and go to the post office now." She looked at him finally, their eyes meeting across the room. A million emotions passed through them, relief and worry and desire. "Be careful." She left.

"I like her," Riley said, watching him. She had seen the whole exchange and she thought he was being thick about them being together, but she knew it wasn't actually her business, even if she could feel his longing and love for the Indian girl.

He looked at her, as if pulled from a daze. He had forgotten she was there to be honest, his very being consumed by Kala. "Me too," was all he said before he went to lay on the couch to get some rest.


I know I'm obsessed. This isn't a one shot this time though! It's a story. I pretty much have it planned out. As of now it's going to be 10 chapters. It's hard writing the sensates coming in through their thoughts and emotions. I hope I'm doing okay with it. Please let me know what you think. Until next time lovelies :)
