Secrets
"Magnus!" Will's eyes were quite as wide as saucers as the lab door flew open.
Helen quickly stopped kissing Nikola Tesla and pushed herself off the chair. "Will," she said in a breathy voice.
"You... you... Magnus?"
Nikola groaned in the bed. "Geez. These kids never knock, do they?"
Will suddenly had a flash of anger in his eyes. "You're really enjoying this, aren't you?"
"Innocent! Tied to the bed here!" Tesla defended himself as he grinned. He was enjoying himself immensely, truth be told.
It was quite obvious what she had been doing. Will was trying to get his brain around it. Magnus. Kissing. Tesla. But she still was trying to deny it. "Yes, well I think I think I have something to do." She brushed out of the room quickly.
Will followed her swallowing.
Leaving Tesla tied to the bed.
"Hey! Hey guys! That's just like her. Even when she's in love with me."

Later.
Much later.
Some one had finally remembered to untie him and now he was going to find Helen Magnus. He wasn't really sure what he was going to do once he found her, but he just wanted to find her.
He was not prepared for what he found. Helen Magnus was singing along to some song on the radio. It happened to be White Horse by Taylor Swift.
"Nikola," she broke off abruptly, and smiled, blushing.
"Okay, now I want you to come up to the lab with me-"
"I shouldn't have done that, should I?" she asked, suddenly embarrassed.
She was definitely under the influence of the love potion. "Oh no, kisses are always welcome." He grinned wickedly, but wiped it off his face.
Helen leaned forward and kissed him hard again.
He looked at her for a long time. "I want you to wait here," he changed his mind.

It was evening and Helen Magnus was on Nikola's arm, chattering happily away at him. "Nicky, where are we going?"
"Hush," he said quietly.
They walked into a dark, candlelit room.
Helen's eyes widened. There were roses on the table. He bent to it and picked one up, tucking one behind her ear. She smiled gently at him.
"Sometimes I love you," she joked.
He didn't laugh. "I love you all the time. I love you every minute of every day. You're all that matters to me, all that keeps me going." She tried to interrupt him, but he stopped her. "I want to tell you this because I love you, and because I want the real you back. After this I'm going to leave, and I want you to call me back if you ever... if you ever feel anything. I'll be waiting."
He ended slowly and then led her up towards the lab.
I know, I know it's short! Trying to update stories and think of a songfic! But anyway, the next chapter will be longer and funnier... romance is what happens when I listen to too many songs and think about Teslen more! *Sniffle* Poor Tesla. But I've babbled long enough so here you are!
