A Night of Love
"Well you see Peter, what Gabriel told you wasn't exactly the truth" Claire said nervously. "About what?" he asked looking at Gabriel suspiciously. "About how i ended up with him and Elle" she said. "So what's the real story" he asked.
Claire tried to say something but couldn't find the right words. She couldn't bring herself to tell her uncle, the only decent person from her father's side of the family, she couldn't even look him in the eyes. Elle saw this and placed her hand on her shoulder and said "I'll continue the story Claire". Claire smiled.
"After the little run in with Arthur, Gabriel and I settled down in a quiet suburb but Claire came after with revenge on her mind" Elle said. "It actually feels like a millions years ago that i hated you both with every fibre of my being" Claire said. They laughed to themselves at this private joke.
"Anyway after they captured me, I sort of fell in love with them" she said. "What, you SON OF BITCH, HOW DARE YOU TOUCH HER" Peter shouted before punching Gabriel in the nose. He fell to the floor bleeding before it healed.
"What the Hell Peter" she shouted. " Claire stay out of this" he shouted at her. "Don't talk to my girlfriend that way" Elle shouted "And don't lay another hand on Gabriel". She create a ball of lightning in her hand to back up these threats.
"Girlfriend" Peter repeated confused "You're with both of them". He looked at Claire who was angry at her uncle for reacting this way. He grabbed Gabriel by the shirt and picked him up and said "What the hell did you do to her Sylar, some sort of mind trick"
"He didn't do anything to me, neither of them did, I fell in love with them so let go of him" Claire screamed at Peter. He ran over to her and put his hands on her shoulders and looked and said "Claire what your feeling is not love it's called Stockholm Syndrome, when they captured you developped a connection to them and you just think it's love"
"No Peter I'm in love with Gabriel and Elle and I hoped that you might be the only person to respect my decision even if you don't agree with it" she said. With that she walked over and helped Elle with Gabriel. "What going on down there" shouted a voice. "What's all the racket" called Hiro in his familar accent.
"We'll talk about this in the morning" Claire said before shouting up "Nothing go to sleep". "Where do you think your going" Peter asked. "To bed" She said. "Not with those two" he said. "You can't stop me Peter and just so you know we've been sharing a bed for weeks now and it's been wonderful" she said before leaving with her two lovers.
Peter was infuriated and speechless. He decided to head up to bed and sleep it off. As he was heading to bed he noticed one of the doors was ajar and he looked in a saw Emma looking out the window. He headed over to her and tapped her on the shoulder.
She flinched but then turned around a saw it was Peter and exclaimed happily "Peter it's you". "Are you ok Emma" he asked. "I'm fine just looking out the window" she said. "Maybe you should get some sleep" he said. "Yeah your right" she said.
As she got into bed Peter began to leave but Emma said "Could you stay, i'm afraid to be alone and you're the only one i trust". "Sure" Peter said smiling. Looks like Claire doesn't need Peter to be her white knight anymore, but maybe he can be Emma's white Knight.
Daphne and Matt were sitting on the egde of their bed silent. It was Daphne who broke the silence "I'm sorry" she said. "What" he said confused. "I'm sorry about not being more understanding about your whole power Taboo." she said.
"Look Daphne I love you and I want to be with you, maybe your right, we're not normal so maybe we can't have a normal happy life but we can have a happy life" he said.
Daphne was looking at Matt in the eyes and wondering how the hell did she get such a great guy."I want that so much" she said leaning on him as he hugged her.
"Listen Daphne how about a compromise, i know you love to run, that's wo you are and i can accept that but every now and agian could you stop running and just enjoy the moment" he said. Daphne smiled and said "I could live with that". "Let start now" he said. So Daphne sat there in Matt arms and enjoyed this moment with her lover and she found that she didn't want to run away from this.
Mohinder was pacing his room thinking to himself 'How am i suppose to sleep under the same roof as the man who murdered my father, it's insane for all we now he could kill us all in are sleep, and Maya why did she have to be here, she must hate me, maybe i should apologise, would she even look at me' he thought before being interrupt by well speak of the devil Maya.
"Mohinder" she said entering the room. "Oh, Maya it's lo-lovely to see you again" he siad nervously. "You look better than last time" she said keeping her eyes on the floor.
"Yes about last time i'm sorry about what i did to you, you must hate me" he said sadly. "I wish i could hate you, it would be easier that way" she said "I came here to talk to you about Sylar". "What about him" he asked.
"You don't believe his story do you" she asked. "Not a chance, people like him never change" he said. "Since both of us want a pound of flesh of Sylar what say we work together" she said. "Didn't think you'd be the revenge type" Mohinder said.
"I think God will make an acception in Sylar's case" she said. "I missed you" Mohinder blurted out. "I missed you too" She said. "Do you ever think we might be able to get back together" he asked. "I don't know" she said. "Maybe when this is all over i could take you out to dinner sometime" Mohinder asked. Maya smiled and said "I'd like that".
Hiro and Ando were in there room when Ando said "Hiro i have to tell you something". "What" Hiro asked. "Your sister and I have been dating for a while now and i'd like to ask for her hand in marriage" he said. Hiro didn't say anything for a while.
Finally he took a deep breath and asked "Do you love her". "Yes "Ando said. "I need to be alone" he said and heading down to the kitchen. Hiro even though that he could think of a real reason to disapprove he had none.
He knew Ando loves his sister and the only he isn't happy for them is because he's jealous. Everyone in this building has someome except him. The only he ever loved was Charlie and she was gone, taken from him by her condition. He would give anything to have here back even his recently regained power.
He was so deep in though he didn't notice when Tracy sat down next to him with and bottle of gin. "Ain't' we a pair of losers" she said. "Huh" he said. "I know that look on your face, you and me are the only two in this building who doesn't have someone they love, so we're sitting here pining for them, in fact if i weren't drunk i wouldn't even let you see me like this" she said passing him the bottle.
"You know for once I'll drink" he said before taking a mouthful. "So who do you love" he asked. "That flying dickhead who's hunting us down" she said. "Flying man" Hiro said. "Yep Flying man" she said taking a drink. Those two spent half the night drink, singing and talking about there love life.
Gabriel was brought up stair by Claire and Elle. 'A good night sleep is what i need' he thought. He was tired from teleporting so many people. "You standing up to Peter was pretty hot" Elle said to Claire. "Yeah well not being the damsel in distress anymore is pretty good" she said.
Gabriel knew were ths was going. They throw him on to the bed and practically pouched on him like tigers attacking there prey. He was exhausted already but he was more than happy to oblige the girls
