Okay, guys. Since You said that I should continue this fic, I decided I'd make it into a series of oneshots! :) But this'll be a little different, because it's not just about Arthur and Ariadne anymore... ehh, you'll see what I mean.
Anyway here's the second chapter!
Cobb
Sometimes, all Ariadne wanted to do was quit her job. The extractions were tiring, and they distanced her from her family, her education, and her old life. It didn't help that her boss could be a total dick sometimes, either.
She cared about Cobb, she really did. But honestly? He could annoy the shit out of her.
Because Cobb never seemed to care about anyone other then himself and his personal problems. Cobb agreed to any mission that promised him a 'way home to his children', no matter how risky or life- threatening it was. And every case would end the same exact way- she and her colleagues would get the job done, and then they'd have to delve deeper their victim's dream just to rescue Cobb from his psychotic wife or from limbo or whatever mess he'd gotten himself into this time.
And once they'd all woken up, shaking and panting as if they'd just ran a marathon, Cobb would be sitting on his chair, calm and quiet. No 'thanks for saving me', no 'I'm sorry I risked your lives'. No 'I'll never put you in danger again'. Because he would do it again. And again, and again, and again. And no client they helped would ever, ever, be able to fulfill their promise, so Cobb kept trying; trying, and risking, and playing with death. And since he kept trying, so did they.
And Ariadne hated it.
But she couldn't blame him. The man just wanted to go home, after all. Home to his son and daughter, home to the family that anxiously waited for his return. She would put everything on the line, too, if she was in the same situation. And it's not like her parents questioned her disappearance- her mother drank to much red wine to care about her daughter, and her father was busy sailing the world with whatever gold digger had attached herself to his hip.
So, even though she hated it, Ariadne stuck by Cobb. Because that's what friends do.
And hey, at least Arthur was there with her.
So what did you guys think? Like it? Love it? Hate it? Leave a review and tell me what I can do better on for the next chapter (Which will be uploaded soon!)
