Talked.

ooc: Took place yesterday. /ooc.

We've sorted it out.



Dom: *I feel absolutely horrible for not having gone to see you at the hospital, but taking care of two kids, one with a suspected hearing impairment, has taken up a lot of time. Or maybe it was that mixed with not wanting to see you hurt and the dislike I've come to feel for hospitals after my not so brief visit in Spain. Now I'm standing outside your hotel door, apart from my babies for the first time. I knock, hoping you won't cut my head off the minute you open. I know what you can be like when you're angry.*

Billy: *Karl is out clearing some things with the airline which is going to take us back to England. I suppose it is some room service though I did not order anything. I groan and push myself back up, taking my crutches I hobble towards the door. I am more than suprised when I find you in front of it. I don`t say anything. I just look at wondering what you have to say*

Dom: Hey *I say meekly and seeing your state I feel tears in my eyes right away* Can I come in? *I ask carefully*

Billy: Sure *I say briefly turning around and hobbling back to the couch and flopping down on it*

Dom: *I come inside and close the door behind me, but not moving away from it. I look around the room, maybe afraid to meet your eyes.* Erm... how are you doing? *I say and manage to look in your direction nervously*

Billy: Oh, much better thanks. *I say dryly*

Dom: *I swallow* Billy... I'm sorry I didn't show up at the hospital. I tried several times, but something always came in the way. Anya's having trouble breast feeding and William has had a bad stomach. *I sigh deeply, feeling really bad* I know sorry isn't enough and I don't know how to make it up to you, but I'd do anything... *I say sincerely*

Billy: At first it would be nice if you`d stop making up excuses. I know that you have two babies and I know that babies are a lot of work. but it would have taken you and hour at max to visit me. Hell, you could have called me! *I can hear myself almost screaming and tell myself to calm down.*

Dom: *I feel the daggers in my heart* They're not excuses, I was trying to explain why I didn't show up. I feel horrible about it and you know I'm not a bad person... I did try, but something always came up! And how could I have called you? You're not allowed to use mobile phones in hospitals... *I feel tears filling my eyes and threatening to spill over* I'm so sorry, Billy, so fucking sorry! Please believe me!

Billy: I had a phone in my room. Karl could have told you had you asked him. I even believe you that you are sorry, I am just so fucking hurt. *I say, my voice is calm and emotionless*

Dom: I know, I understand that and you're right, I should have asked him, but I didn't think about it. I know you don't want excuses, but I've been so fucking tired I could pass out, I haven't been thinking clearly. I realise now that I could have done more, but it's easy to say now when it's too late. *I sigh deeply and wipe off two tears that roll down my cheek*

Billy: I love you Dom, but you disappointed me badly. *I can feel the emotion come up inside me*

Dom: *I sniffle a bit and wipe my cheek on the back of my hand* I know... *I sigh sadly* I know, I'm so sorry... and after everything you've done for me... and I wasn't there for you. *I sit down on the end of the bed, hanging my head and covering my face with my hands with another sniffle*

Billy: Just promise me to never, never let me down like this again. *I stare at you*

Dom: *I look up, looking back at you and nod* I won't.. I promise. *I wipe the rest of the tears and sit up, trying to collect myself a bit*

Billy: You better not *I mumble. I am not sure what to say right now, the whole situation being to fucked up*

Dom: So.. you forgive me? *I ask, biting the inside of my lip and looking sadly at you*

Billy: *I nod* But I won`t forgive you again and again.

Dom: Of course not... *I nod, still not sure what to do or say* So you're flying out on friday?

Billy: *I nod again* We`ll fly back to England tomorrow moring. Karl luckly found an airline that is willing to transport people with broken legs. *I smile slightly*

Dom: That's good. Why do you have to go back so soon? I'm sure you and Karl could stay in the main house for a few days if you want... I mean, we won't be seeing each other for a while now...

Billy: Karl has to work. He already risked getting fired when he immediately came to see me. *And I can`t express how much I love him for doing this for me*

Dom: Well can't you stay? At least for a week or so?

Billy: No. *I say quickly and turn to you* I need some time with him now. I scared the hell out of him, he risked everything to see me. It just made me realise once more how much I love him. Not that I needed a reminder *I smile* I just have to go back to England with him.

Dom: Of course. Maybe you can come over some time when it's not so busy and all. Elijah and I were thinking of having a get-together... we're not sure when though.

Billy: *I nod* That can surely be arranged. Would be nice seeing everyone again.

Dom: Yeah, it sure would. I miss everyone... and the way it used to be back in the days. But life moves on I suppose. I have a family, you have Karl, Fran has Pete and Phil *laughs a little at that*, Astin has his family... and everyone else is doing their thing. *feeling a bit sad* But in lighter news.. we've managed to move the appointment with the doctor to monday so we'll see what's up with Will.

Billy: That`s good. Call me as soon you know what`s up with him.

Dom: I will. You have my word on it. *I smile and stand up* Well, I better get going, I have breast feeding to do. That is if Anya will take the breast today. I hope we don't have to take her to the doctor too. *wrinklin my nose in displeasure*

Billy: I am sure Anya will be fine. She is just a little princess I guess.

Dom: Like her mother. *laughs* Anyway, thank you Billy...

Billy: Mind if I don't walk you to the door? *I grin at you* You know, age is catching up on me.

Dom: *I grin* I'll find my way out, thanks. *I bend down and hug you* I'll call you and let me know when you get to England so I know everything's alright..

Billy: *I hug you back and nod* I will Mummy.

Dom: Alright, Uncle Billy. See you soon I hope and have a sife journey. *I say, heading for the door, but then remembers something* Oh wait, I almost forgot! Elijah and I made a little something for you. *I open my bag and fish out a small wrapped gift* It's nothing big, just something we thought you might like.

Billy: Thanks *I smile take the gift from you and being as curious as always I remove the wrapping immediately. I look at the picture and grin* Thanks again. It`s a beautiful picture.

Dom: Don't want you to forget them, and I suppose it's a way to convince you to come visit more often. *laughs* Anyway, I have to go or I'll have two cranky babies when I come home. And then a cranky husband. *I head back to the door and open it* See ya, Billy!

Billy: See you! *I call after you as you`re making your way out. I look at the picture once more before I put it into my bag, making sure not to forget it*

Dom: *I wave quickly and close the door, making my way down to the car. I feel so relieved that you've forgiven me. God it got so messed up!*
