Disclaimers: I don't own the YH characters
Aimee tipped the contents of the pill bottle into her left hand, and then filled up the empty bottle with water.
She put the her hand up to her mouth, and was about to devour the lot, when.
'Wait, stop it,' a hand reached up to her arm, and knocked the pill flying. When Aimee pulled herself together to see what had happened, she saw Hercules standing in front of her with a concerned look on his face.
Herc put his arms around Aimee, and she returned the hug. She was a little shocked to actually feel his arms around her, because she wasn't sure if he was real.
When the two broke the embrace, the sat on the floor with their backs to the bath tub.
'Why were you going to do that?' Herc asked, breaking the silence.
'Dunno,' was all Aimee could say, she didn't know how to pout her feelings into words. 'Because you're not real.' she managed to say in the end.
'What makes you say that? I'm here aren't I? If I didn't exist, why would I be talking to you now?' Herc asked.
'I guess.but the books say that Hercules was a mythical person, myth isn't a reality,' she explained.
'Do you believe in me?' he asked, looking her straight in the eyes.
'Yes.I do, I do,' she confessed.
'Then I exist? Right?' he said, and Aimee nodded
'Then it's settled, 'cos whether you like it or not, we're here to stay. Whether you believe in us or not we're not going anywhere,' he said with a nod.
'Ok' Aimee nodded, 'but where are the other two? Why did you leave me when you did?' she asked.
'They'll be back later. We left because you were upset, and we thought you needed some time to your self,' he explained.
'My parents think I'm crazy. The sent a doctor to speak to me. A brain doctor called a psychiatrist,' she explained.
It took a while, but Herc understood what she said. 'What's going to happen now?' he asked.
'Dunno, I'll talk to him, then he'll realise I'm not crazy, and then he'll leave me alone,' she said.
The both got up and Aimee flushed the pills down the toilet, then hid the bottle in he pocket. She and Hercules left the room, and she went downstairs to agree to the psychological treatment.
The first session went ok, except for Iolaus pulling faces behind the doctors' back, and making her laugh all the time.
Aimee had to go see the psychiatrist six times in all, before her parents realised she was ok, and that there was nothing to worry about.
SIX MONTHS LATER
'So how was school?' Jason asked Aimee when she came through the door.
'Apart from being called crazy? Really good,' she answered. 'You three wanna go watch cartoons? 'I don't have any homework.'
'I got dibs on the cartoons,' Iolaus yelled and ran ahead of them into the living room. Only to have Herc chase him, and quickly grab the remote.
All Aimee could do was laugh, and went to switch the tv on.
Well that was the end of the fic with no name. I hope you liked it.
And remember thing are only real if you believe they are, don't let anyone say you're crazy: )
