My Knight in shiny Armour 7a/7

(Anonymous) 2011-11-08 07:31 pm (UTC)(link)
The battle was brutal and short. In less than an hour the Legion had been defeated, but the NCR had suffered far too high losses as well.
General Oliver and Colonel Moore had gathered the troops, and while Oliver had commandeered a last unit of elite soldiers and rangers Moore had led the others towards McCarran, urging and lashing the tired, beaten soldiers onward and onward long past the point of exhaustion.
It took two days to bring the troops into marching order for the trek back home, and another three for the NCR to get a fleet of vertibirds going to transport the wounded.

Major Knight had held himself in the background, watching the vertibirds come and go, but finally, he had realised his time had come, too. The last of the choppers was waiting, and there was nothing left for him but leave the Mojave behind. The pain in his heart was far worse than the one in his skull where a bandage covered a deep gash in his forehead from a bullet that had grazed him; and he climbed into the vertibird with a heavy heart, falling back into his seat with sweat of exhaustion beading on his temples. As the last soldiers climbed on board, Knight let his eyes wander across his last view of Vegas, the fortifications, the ruined houses, watching the dust being kicked up by the starting rotors above them.

From between the houses, someone came running for the vertibird. The two uninjured soldiers who were guarding their fallback primed their weapon on the running man, but upon realising that he was unarmed, relaxed again.
The rotors picked up speed and through the hellish noise they made, they could hear the man running for the vertibird shout something but were unable to discern what he was shouting.
The chopper began to rock as it was about to lift off when Knight, still staring out of the door, recognised the man running towards them.

“Will!!”
The last of the injured men had boarded the chopper and the two guards jumped onboard as well, the second one pulling the door shut behind him.
Knight wished he never had looked out again so he would have been spared Leo’s desperate, anguished face upon realizing he had come too late. He fell back in his seat, his head hurting worse than it had when he got the damn bullet, and he tried to push the memories of Leo’s voice screaming his name in desperation out of his mind.

The vertibid had left the ground and picked up speed, heading westwards and away from the Mojave Desert and the city of New Vegas. Knight closed his eyes and tried to make himself believe that he was looking forward to seeing his family again.

Below them, Leo had dropped onto his knees in the dust and stared at the vanishing vertibird with a tear-stained face.

Leo sat on the steps that led up to the Lucky38, lost in memories so pleasant and painful that he didn’t know if she should cry or smile. He settled for the latter, staring at his hands, and tried to piece together how long ago this had been. Five months, was his conclusion. Five months since he had fought for Hoover Dam and won. That New Vegas had won. Had fought for survival for a time after that, but had won.

After an uneasy truce with the NCR, he had been able to establish a cautious peace with them and custom on the Strip had slowly increased again. Everything had begun to fall into place.

Leaning back, Leo let his eyes wander across the Strip, watching the whores in front of the Gomorrah, the securitrons guarding the place and the drunks and stragglers milling between them. And a single man entering through the gate who seemed neither drunk nor straggling, wearing heavily used, dusty boots, jeans and a simple, chequered shirt, a duffle bag slung across one shoulder.

He seemed somewhat familiar and Leo slowly got up, dusted his backside off and took a few steps towards the stranger only to stop dead in his tracks when the man turned to face him. A huge grin spread on his face, covered in untidy stubble, and he dropped the bag and broke out into a run.

“Leo!”
Leo stood frozen to the spot, shaking his head in mute disbelief.
“Leo...” Knight came to halt before him and the grin on his face slowly died. “Leo... it’s me... Will. Remember?”
“You came back?”, Leo finally managed to choke out, fighting his tears.
Knight, however, seemed to misinterpret his expression and faltered, the happiness in his eyes replaced with a wary kind of disappointment. “I... yeah... I resigned.”
Leo blinked. “You what?”
“I resigned”, Knight repeated. “I... I was fed up with it all, the being ordered around and the... the hushing up. Know what I did? I went to my mom after I was home, had her sit down with me at the kitchen table and told her.”
Leo blinked and felt a tiny smile creep onto his face. “And?”
Knight shrugged, an embarrassed grin appearing on his face. “She said: ‘Oh boy, why didn’t you tell me before? You could’ve saved us all a lot of trouble.’ Then she fed me some apple pie she had just made and told me not to worry about my dad and she’d work him round, but... you know. I thought I’d tell him myself. And you know what?” Here he chuckled and shook his head. “All he said was: ‘Yeah, well, good thing we’ve got grand kids already.’ Just like that...”
Leo couldn’t help but grin, but Knight’s grin softened into a smile.
“And you know... Leo, I...” Knight rubbed the back of his neck with his left hand. “I couldn’t... I mean... the way you came running for that chopper... I...”
Leo avoided his eyes and shrugged. “I don’t know what...”
“Hey.”
Leo looked up again to find Knight stare at him.
“Leo.”
“Hm?”
Knight took a step forward. “I... Leo... oh fuck it.” He took a deep breath. “I came as fast as I could, Leo. Do you want me back?”
Leo blinked as if he’d been slapped. “Are you serious?”, he rasped, his voice suddenly hoarse.
“If I wasn’t, would I have trekked hundreds of miles through the desert to catch up with you?”

They stared at each other for a moment longer before both of them moved simultaneously, throwing their arms around each other and slapping each other’s back. After a few moments Knight leaned back to look at Leo again, realising that his own cheeks were as wet as Leo’s. “God almighty, I’ve missed you, Leo.”
Leo wiped a hand across his face and smiled, a huge grin of disbelief mixed with joy. “I missed you too, Will. Missed you like hell.”
Knight felt his heart race as if it meant to break free of his ribcage, but unable to stop smiling he slung an arm around Leo’s neck and pulled him close.
When their lips met, a few people around them began to cheer and clap. Ignoring them, the two men deepened their kiss, forgetting everything around them as their tongues toyed with each other, each of them aware only of the body close to him.

The voice from a passing securitron chirped up like a sound from another world.
“Move along please.”

As I mentioned on the discussion thread, I was stuck in an airport the first time I read this fill, and forgot to come back and comment later. This fic was utterly beautiful, and I loved every word. I have no idea why this doesn't have a million comments.

And with goose bumps spreading out all over his body it occurred to him that moment that he, William Knight, was the only soul who knew the Courier’s name.

That is quite a shivery moment, Knight. This really stood out to me. It seems really intimate, somehow, for someone like the Courier.

Something else I really enjoyed was crafty, crafty Leo getting them an alibi whore. Heh. And Knight was so utterly clueless, it was sweet. Though I did feel bad for him.

I'm glad it all worked out for them in the end. : )
