HC01-The Fight

by VST

Shortly after the beginning of what might have been Season 5, Victoria and John have words over a touchy subject. A romantic tale told in 16 drabbles of exactly 100 words each. Complete!

10. Drabble 10

Drabble 10:

Feeling sick when John entered, she was determined not to lose the small portion of her dinner that she'd actually eaten.

"Victoria, we have to talk."

"Yes, John, I know."

"I'm sorry about this morning. It was, well, a complete surprise when you raised the subject. We've talked about it and decided a long time ago, so I really wasn't expecting this to come up again."

"I know, John. But sometimes things change."

"True enough," he replied, moving forward to gently hold her just below the shoulders. "But not about this. Nothing at all has changed."

No, John. It has.
