Disclaimer: I do not own the characters or the TV show (of course).
So, after watching the Finale, I kept thinking, particularly about the last scene in which Delphine shows up, how she is sent to Frankfurt... What if Delphine wasn't just an illusion? What happens after Delphine is sent to Frankfurt? Does she get to say goodbye? (Cophine all the way!)
Chapter 1
Frankfurt? Really? Thought Delphine, as she was forced to go down on the elevator. She had warned Rachel, but it was clear she didn't give a damn to her threats. Her heart was breaking as the numbers on the elevator went by, as if in a cruel countdown which kept going by faster and faster. She wouldn't be able to see Cosima again, she was quite sure about it... And she couldn't take it. The thought felt like a kick to the stomach and she ended up sitting against one of the walls of the elevator, her face on her hands, crying like never before. She was pulled back to reason when a guard, who apparently had been waiting for her at the reception, shook her "awake". How long had she been there, crying against the elevator's wall? Impossible to tell... Maybe seconds, maybe hours...
"Me and my partner are here to escort you to your place and to the airport. You'll only have half an hour to pack, so you better not linger here much longer, doctor", said the tall guard in a dark suit, extending her a hand.
She nodded, sadly, and wiped her teary face with the back of her hand and accepted the tall man's help. Soon she was up and heading to a dark company car with tinted windows. She entered the car and so did the two men in the dark suits. She sent whatever she had to Cosima's cellphone, because it seemed like the only thing she could do at the moment. "I'm sorry", she thought to herself, "I'm sorry I can't be more useful, and I'm sorry I didn't get to say goodbye, mon amour". She soon started crying again. The guards appeared not to have a clue what was going on with her feelings, and tried consoling her.
"Well, Frankfurt can't be that bad, doctor", said the one who wasn't driving, "I've heard it's quite a nice place". Yeah, they really had no clue.
"I guess", she said, her voice trembling.
They were silent then, and she managed to hold back her tears, at least during the car ride. Then, they got to her place and as one guard stood in front of her door, the other entered the place with her. She then, began packing. After getting her clothes at the closet, she went to look for personal things at the little living room. She got some portraits and, suddenly, she came to a stop, as she saw one of the photos. Her chest felt as if it had been punched. There was a photo of her and Cosima, from when her health hadn't began failing. She kept looking at the picture until she couldn't see anything because the tears had clouded her vision completely. "Why?", she thought, why did she have to leave? Why couldn't she say goodbye to Cosima? The whole thing was just so painful. The love of her life, dying, and she couldn't do anything. She would try, though, she didn't know how, but she would, that was what she had decided the second Rachel sent her down on that elevator. Everything about that damned company was gone, her old boss Leekie, her lab partners, everything changed radically because of that damn clone. How she hated Rachel right now... With every fiber of her being.
So, this is the first chapter... I'll probably keep uploading, for I pretty much have the chapters ready... So, what do you think? Is it nice so far? Your feedback is more than appreciated, please don't refrain from reviewing! ;) - J
