Jesse had arrived back to sanctuary after failing to find a location for Shalimar's comlink. He walked into sanctuary expecting Adam to be asleep, but he was surprised to see the man researching in his lab.
'Adam?'
'Jesse! Any word on Shalimar yet?' There was a little hint of desperation in his voice. He didn't want to lose Shalimar...and he just had a feeling that she was still out there. Alive.
'No...I can't find her comlink anywhere...' Adam sensed a bit of a depressed tone. He knew how much Jesse loved her, they were like one big family. They had been for quite a few years now.
'Hey listen, she's very strong. She can look after herself, I'm sure she's fine at this moment now.' He had to keep Jesse's hopes up...and also his own.
'Yeah, maybe...I'm gonna have a shower, I'll be back out in a while.'
'Okay, I wanna show you something after though, so don't take too long...I'll make u a coffee too. It looks like you need one...'
'Thanks...I think.'
Jesse dumped his jacket on the stairs and headed straight for the bathroom. Even though it was just the three of them in the team, there were still spare rooms and another bathroom a few rooms down. He walked into the bathroom, took off his clothes and walked straight into the shower, letting the power of the water fall down on him.
*Where are you Shal?!? Come on...I WILL find you...just give me time...hang on shal*
He stayed there for about 15 minutes not moving thinking of what Shalimar must be doing, and whether she was safe. It was only when Adam called out to him, he realised how long he had spent in there.
'Jesse? You okay? You've been in there for about an hour now...'
'Yeah, I'm fine...I'll be right out in a minute...'
'Hey listen Jesse, never mind about that thing I was going to show you, I'll show you tomorrow morning. First you need to get some sleep, otherwise you definately will not be any use to me!'
'Cheers Adam...any news yet?'
'Uh, no...don't worry Jesse...she'll be fine. Trust me.'
'I do. 'Night Adam.'
''Night Jesse...and just remember, she's FINE.'
It took another whole 20 minutes before he was out of the bathroom, and another 35 minutes before he actually was in bed. It took him a whole hour before he got to sleep. He couldn't help feeling guilty about Shalimar, and if she was hurt. He fell asleep not noticing the wet patches on his pillow where he had been crying for Shalimar to come home.
*Where are you? Please come home soon Shal, or let us find you...*
He didn't know Adam was right next door thinking the exact same thing. The most important woman in both of their lives had no idea what she was putting them through, and he hated it.
*Shalimar, I know you're strong, but I know you need out help...where are you??*
Brennan's Apartment 3.00am -
Shalimar woke up in a strange bed and noticed the clock to the right of her on a nightstand. 3.00am.
*Where am I? 3am?!? What's Adam going to think? And Jesse! I've gotta get outta here!*
She tried sitting up, but ended trying too fast. She slumped back onto the bed after failing to sit upright. It took her a whole 10 minutes to adjust to her surroundings. She was definately NOT in Sanctuary. She was in a fairly large room, sleeping on a double bed right in the middle. To her right was a nightstand with the clock and a cupboard which most probably held clothes. To her left, was the window and a table. It was quite neat and she noticed some small poetry books scattered around the room.
*Hmm, a poet...*
Then she noticed the crack in the door to the right. A small light shone through the crack and she suddenly felt a rush of adrenaline. She managed to get herself up and walk to the door. It opened with a quiet creak but she managed to slip out without making such a noise. The bedroom was at the end of a small corridor and she walked down, passing the bathroom on her
left and a fairly large kitchen on her right. Straight ahead without a door, she could see was the lounge. Her feral senses suddenly picked up a small sound...sort of like...a snore?
She walked further in and saw the outlines of a person lying on the couch. They were definately alive, she could see their chest moving. That was what she must have heard. Snoring. Then she saw him, thinking of the events earlier that night she realised she didn't get a chance to see his face.
He was sleeping on the couch like a baby, but his legs seemed too long for the couch...they stuck up off the end. When she saw his feet and realised that he had given her the bed, she felt grateful, and that she owed him. She noticed his features, and felt a sudden warmth around the atmosphere...she felt safe with this man, Brennan.
*Not a bad looking guy, either...* She quietly laughed at herself, and headed back for the bedroom.
