A/N: Not a prompt, but an episode tag to last night's episode. I borrowed Alison's description of Carlos Morejon's face from the episode.
Henry considered himself a non-violent man. For the most part, he believed that conflict could be resolved by talking rather than with fists. He tried to repeat that in his head as he looked at Carlos Morejon's "very punchable" face as Alison had called it.
He hadn't meant to bump into Morejon. It had happened accidentally. But now that he was face-to-face with this man who was currently on yet another tirade about Elizabeth's politics and her moral character, Henry's mantra faded from existence. All he saw was red.
He let himself feel the rage of someone speaking negatively about his Elizabeth and held it for a breath. Then another. After three breaths, the rage still held, and Henry was still angry, and Morejon was still speaking, and all he could was hit.
The well timed punch landed hard on Morejon's nose, snapping the bone, and as the blood gushed, all Henry could feel was intense satisfaction.
Elizabeth sat up in bed as Henry tossed and turned. But a smile was on his face. Smirking, she laid back down again. It was the third time this week he'd had this dream of punching Morejon in her honor. She settled down beside him and wished for a similar dream herself. As Alison had put it, Morejon did have a very punchable face.
