[Grabbed!]

Waitwaitwait--yeah it's Cori.

[playstheblues.livejournal.com]

Oh. Sorry.

[bitingnightmare.livejournal.com]

Whew. Sorry. Do you have room for one more?

[Making to join him on the rocks.]

[playstheblues.livejournal.com]

[Scoots over a little]

Are you better?

[bitingnightmare.livejournal.com]

[A nod.]

I needed a drink, that's all.

Sorry I left you alone.

[Arm curling around Blue's shoulders.]

[playstheblues.livejournal.com]

[Sits, quietly, for a little while]

...it's okay.

[bitingnightmare.livejournal.com]

I'm really sorry, Blue...

[Quietly.]

I don't know what else is going to help, except a little time.

[playstheblues.livejournal.com]

It's pretty tonight.

[Blue feels sick to his stomach, again]

[bitingnightmare.livejournal.com]

... It is.

[A kiss to his cheek.]

[playstheblues.livejournal.com]

I just didn't want to stay indoors.

[bitingnightmare.livejournal.com]

That's okay.

[Another squeeze to his shoulders.]

[playstheblues.livejournal.com]

[And he's quiet again]

I hate losing friends.

[bitingnightmare.livejournal.com]

I know.

[There's that guilt again. For Tony, Ellington, Gordon, and now Jack. THough some individuals are more important than others!]

[playstheblues.livejournal.com]

[Brings his knees up and sets his head on them]

[bitingnightmare.livejournal.com]

[Leaning in close to Blue and just petting his hair.]

[playstheblues.livejournal.com]

I messed this whole thing up.

[bitingnightmare.livejournal.com]

A mistake's a mistake. We all fucked up.

[playstheblues.livejournal.com]

I was supposed to take care of you. I promised to take care of it.

[swallows]

[bitingnightmare.livejournal.com]

[Turning to look him in the eye.]

Blue. You did what you could, that's important to me.

[And even more importantly...]

You don't always have to take care of me. Let me take care of you too, okay?

[playstheblues.livejournal.com]

Will you do it now?

[leans his head on Cori's lap]

[bitingnightmare.livejournal.com]

You know I will.

[Even if he failed this morning with Jack. Petting Blue's hair gently.]

[playstheblues.livejournal.com]

Just...call me baby, and say it's okay.

[bitingnightmare.livejournal.com]

... Baby don't cry. You got to keep your head up, even when the road is hard, never give up.

[A smile? Just a little?]

[playstheblues.livejournal.com]

[A look up, and a small smile]

[bitingnightmare.livejournal.com]

[Leaning over to kiss his temple.]
