Where The Apple Fell 1e/1
(Anonymous) 2012-05-05 04:01 pm (UTC)(link)Even so, he doesn’t sleep until she’s stable. Still, it’s only fitful rest he gets, and he never leaves her bedside. He tells Annie that her mom’s going to be fine, and holds her. Annie looks at Kate’s prone form on the bed, and nods quietly. The kid knows she’ll be fine. Benny and Kate don’t lie to her. When he got stung, he knows Kate told her that he might die. Annie cried for a bit, and then Kate told her to save her tears for when she needed them. Annie listened.
Maybe they really are fucking up this kid, and maybe they’re making her something special.
He makes sure he’s not around, though, when Kate wakes up.
“You son of a bitch,” are the first words to leave her mouth.
Benny shrugs. He can’t deny it.
“You fucking shot me. Again.” Her voice is thick and hoarse.
“Nothing you couldn’t handle, pussycat. Not after your mountain expedition, huh?”
“You son of a bitch,” she says again. She sounds grumpy, resentful, and...pleased.
Benny knew he was right. She can’t hide shit from him anymore.
“Pussycat, you don’t want a guy who won’t shoot you in the head. Hundreds of guys have tried that, and I don’t see you raising their kids.”
“You’re such a smug little shit, Benny. What the fuck would you have done if I’d died?”
“You wouldn’t have died.”
“You didn’t know that.”
He laughs. “You act like I’ve never seen you fight, baby. All hitting your head does is slow you down a little.”
Kate sighs and slumps into the pillows. “Annie?”
“Didn’t want to tell her too much until I got your blessing.”
She waves a hand. “Ugh. I guess I’ll explain to her why daddy dearest shot me in the head. Again.”
He holds his palms up. “She knows I did it once.”
“That girl needs better parents.”
“We love each other, and we love her. Ain’t that enough?” He holds his breath, because this is the make-or-break point.
Kate eyes him, and then, slowly, says, “Yeah. We love each other. And we love her. It’s enough.”
She never wanted a guy who was under her heel. She never wanted a guy who’d never fight back, who’d go easy on her, who’d treat her like something precious.
He’s never going to make it so he didn’t shoot her, so he didn’t fuck her up, so he didn’t rub out her whole past. But this time, he stuck round. This time, he shot her because of who she was, not because she was in the way. She wanted a guy who’d shoot her in the head and then wait for her to wake up, and that’s all that Benny can give her.
Suddenly, she smiles, and takes his hand, and he knows it’s enough.
Fuck it if they’re raising Annie wrong. If she turns out anything like them, she’s gonna do fine.
