Author's Note: The plot is temporarily on hold as I try and get through my requests before I go on my short hiatus—more details of that can be found on my profile—and so I present the request of shaneo6930, which was a request for Parker taking Eliot base jumping with her. Enjoy!
He doesn't like this.
Damn it, he really doesn't like this!
When Parker had asked him for help—something the resident thief never did—he had agreed because he wanted to encourage her to keep asking for help. Too many times she had jumped into a situation she couldn't handle and got overwhelmed because she wouldn't ask for help. When she finally did ask for help, Eliot knew he couldn't turn her down.
He just really wish that he had now.
"Ok," Parker said with a grin as she pulled the cords around Eliot tightly. "You should be safe now."
"Why am I doing this?" Eliot growled, but Parker smiled.
"Cause you said you would," She finishes putting her equipment on and then skips to the edge of the building. What Parker did want help in was getting her equipment checked and Eliot had been the lucky one to volunteer. "You ready?"
"Yeah," It's a lie, but what can he do? He had to do this to try and get Parker to understand that it was ok to ask people for help. He doesn't like the fact that they'll be jumping off a skyscraper in a second though. He's afraid to fall, but there's no way in hell he would let Parker know that.
And then something strange happens.
She grabs his hand, flashes a comforting smile, and then they both jump—
Together.
