Couples Therapy- Chapter Six- Thierry and Hannah

Hey everyone! The first thing I want to address is 100 reviews? OH MY GOD! I love everyone who reviewed! ^-^ Thank you all SO, SO MUCH! I love you all!

Even the ones who asked rather dumb questions. Such as "Who's next?" Well I've done all the Soulmates in order of the books so far WHO DO YOU THINK IS NEXT?

Also there are several of you who wanted Jez and Morgead in this chapter. So here they are.

"Hi." Jez and Morgead greeted the lovely readers.

Okay, there they were. Hope you're happy

"You're such a smart ass, Eve." Morgead rolled his eyes.

I wouldn't want to be any other way, Morgy.

Now here you are! The next installment of Couples Therapy!

Thierry sighed and put his head in his hands. "Hannah? Our session is next, isn't it?"

"Yes. Why? Are you worried?" Hannah looked up from her magazine to look worriedly upon her Soulmate.

"No. No, of course I'm not. I think this will be good for us." Thierry smiled at her. "I'm just worried I'll have a meeting and have to skip it or leave during the middle."

"Do you have anything like that planned tomorrow?"

"No. But do you think having an appointment date and time ever stopped anyone from needing to discuss business?" He laughed humorlessly.

"Well they can survive for one whole day." Hannah smiled. "I was hoping we could go to lunch or dinner after. Depending on what time Paul calls us down there."

"Sounds good." Thierry smiled.

"By the way, what are we going to do with that room once everyone's had their session?" Hannah asked.

"I'm seriously considering everyone having individual therapy." Thierry said seriously.

"You do, and I'll kill you." Hannah replied, just as serious.

"Fine. Then it will just go back to being an empty, unused room."

All around the mansion, all the pranksters looked away guiltily, without really knowing why.

"Master Thierry!" Nilsson called through the halls of the mansion the next day. "Master Thierry! Paul has sent for you!"

All of the Daybreakers beside Hannah and Thierry automatically settled in the Of Course Nothing is Private Anymore room.

"I'm so excited! They are the cutest, sweetest, more adorablicious couple in the, like, world!" Iliana gushed.

"Who invited her here?" Quinn asked aloud, not trying to hide the disgust in his voice.

"I live here! Thanks so much for caring, John." Iliana retorted snottily and all the Daybreaks held their breath, just waiting for the explosion that was Quinn.

But before that could happen, Ash put his hand on the back on Iliana's silk hair and his eyes flashed silver. Iliana fainted in a deep slumber and Ash's eyes turned a satisfied jade.

"Why'd you do that?" Quinn yelled.

"Because! She's a Wild Power, and I know you well enough to know that you would've spilled her blood and I really don't want to see you vaporized."

Phew! We were concerned Ash was worried about Iliana's safety for a moment there!

"Oh, here they are!" Thea whispered excitedly as Hannah and Thierry entered Paul's office.

"Do you think he realizes there's a camera in there?" Morgead asked.

"Probably not." Jez replied.

"I just hope he doesn't do anything embarrassing that we need to see… that would inevitably end up online…"

"Like what?" Gillian asked.

Jez and Morgead exchanged looks. "Something that rhymes with baster mating."

"Do you mean bastard mating?" Iliana perked up.

"How does she do that?" Ash growled and laid his head hopelessly on Mary-Lynnette's shoulder.

"Shush! They're starting!" Thea shh-ed everyone while waving her hands.

Indeed, Thierry and Hannah were. They were already seated and Paul had cleared his throat, ready to begin with the interrogation- uhm… I mean with the therapy!

"Now before we begin, I would like to say something." Thierry said and turned towards Hannah. He held his hands out and without hesitation she took them.

"Hannah," He began, but he seemed to be struggling with himself. He was looking at the floor, as if trying to gain strength. When he looked into Hannah's eyes, she was surprised to see so much remorse and sadness in them. Like when they first met. "I'm so sorry. Please, don't interrupt me; I have to get this out. Hannah, I'm a businessman on top of being an Elder and that makes my schedule more cramped than is healthy. I know that I don't have much time for you and I hate that. You're my Soulmate, the very center of my being, Hannah. But until this lifetime, I've never had more than two months with you. I created this lifestyle around that streak. It was terrible and hopeless thing for me to do."

"Thierry…" Hannah squeezed his hands and blinked rapidly from the tears at the raw emotion in his voice. Guilt with traces of longing and despair... Like Thierry, she stared at the floor, looking for words. When she found them she looked back into his dark eyes.

Thierry spoke up before she had even opened her mouth. His voice was bleak at first, then gained passion as he spoke. "I know you understand, Hannah. But that doesn't make things right. The apocalypse is coming. Who knows how much time we have left. And instead of enjoying this precious time with you, Hannah, I'm sitting behind a desk working my finances. It's not right. I want you to know that I wish, I wish that I could spend every moment of forever with you. You'd think I'd be taking advantage of time now that Maya's gone, but I'm not."

He gently took Hannah's face in his palms and tenderly wiped away her free falling tears.

"I want you to know that I'm thoroughly disgusted with myself for neglecting you like this. I want to make it up to you- anyway you want. We'll do anything and go anywhere. But I need you to know how much you mean to me Hannah Snow, my Soulmate."

Hannah placed her hands on his muscular shoulders. "Thierry… You haven't been neglecting me. I know how busy you are. Yes, I do wish you have more free time, but there's no use in complaining about it. I love the Daybreakers, they're my family, like you, and I love spending time with them."

"But I know you hurt, Hannah." Thierry said with an edge of desperation.

"I don't hurt for me, Thierry. I hurt for you. I know you hate it behind that desk and I wish you got out more! I wish you would relax and not worry about anything, just for one day. That's what I want to do. We'll go on vacation to the Bahamas. Just you and me." Hannah smiled softly.

Thierry nodded rapidly. "Yes, I we can do that. How long do you want to be gone?"

"I want a one way ticket, and we're not getting another one until you relax." Hannah teased.

"Yes, ma'am." A faint smile touched Thierry's lips.

It was impossible to tell who leaned first, but then they were kissing. A tender kiss, but it was full of passion and love.

When they broke apart, Paul was dabbing his eyes with a tissue. "So… uh… If you didn't need my help, why did you even come?"

"Well how much of a hypocrite would I be if I made my Daybreakers come and I didn't?" Thierry answered as he and Hannah stood hand in hand.

"They'd never know." Paul shrugged.

"Oh," Thierry smiled with a twinkle in his eyes. "Yes, they would. Plus, they would've killed me if they hadn't seen this."

With that, Thierry and Hannah departed for their trip to the Bahamas, leaving behind a very confused Paul.

Meanwhile in the Of Course Nothing is Private Anymore room, half the girls were sobbing because of that session.

"I love Thierry so much!" Jez cried. "Why couldn't he be my Soulmate?"

"He's so sweet!" Mary-Lynnette sobbed quietly in Ash's hair.

"They are so cute! I love them so much!" Poppy wailed in James's lap.

"I think I have a new favorite ship!" Maggie dabbed her eyes.

A week later, Thierry and Hannah were tanning on soft lawn chairs on the beautiful white sand on a beach in the Bahamas.

"If this isn't relaxing, I don't know what is." Hannah sighed contently.

"Mhm…" Thierry acknowledged her. Then his phone stared ringing.

"Who is it?" Hannah asked, reaching for the phone.

"Business." Thierry sighed and Hannah snatched the phone from his grasp and without hesitation, with all the strength she had acquired from breaking up fights, she chucked the phone into the clear, blue water and hoped it didn't hit someone.

"Hannah! What if there is an emergency?" Thierry demanded, shocked at his Soulmate.

"Then Nilsson will call me." Hannah raised her own phone and then proceeded to reply to a text from Mare.

"Why can you have your phone?" Thierry grumbled, which was pretty amusing.

"Because I don't tense up whenever it rings." Hannah replied. "Oh, crap… Delos is in big trouble." Hannah chuckled and replied to a text from Maggie.

"What did he do?" Thierry asked.

"I'm not allowed to tell." Hannah winked from behind her sunglasses. "But he didn't break or vandalize anything."

Thierry exhaled in relief. "You really can't tell me?"

"Nope." Hannah giggled.

"I'm getting tense just thinking of possibilities…" Thierry baited.

"Liar." Hannah smiled wickedly. "You're perfectly relaxed."

"How can you tell?" Thierry smirked.

Hannah copied his smirk. "Only one way to find out." She moved over to Thierry's lawn chair and placed her hands on his chest and kissed him hard.

"You seem perfectly relaxed to me." Hannah whispered against his lips.

Thierry smiled softly and kissed her, softly this time.

And basically it was a Hallmark card.
AND THEY LIVED HAPPILY EVER AFTER!

… Well maybe not.

Well there you were!

Sorry it was so short!

But damn… I wrote that all by myself, and I'm pretty damn proud of myself. I'm not good with all that sweet stuff like that. I leave that mostly too Jen ;D love you!

But seriously, I'm proud of myself. Especially because I had Last Friday Night by Katy Perry on the entire time I wrote the really mushy scene between TxH.

So I hope you like this chapter as much as I enjoyed writing it! [:

OH, I ALMOST FORGOT! Just in case you missed Jez and Morgead! Here they are again!

"Bye! Thanks for reading! And review! Or we'll hunt you down Chuck Norris style!" Jez and Morgead waved to the readers with friendly smiles and playful winks.

Aww don't you love them? ^^

Thanks again for reading!

Eve,
