AN: I don’t know, I don’t even like Helen.
The theories were disproven, but Nick’s lecturing voice was as beguiling as ever. Helen waited until the last student had left before joining him.
“What brings you here, Mrs Cutter? ” He loved to call her that. It both charmed and irritated her.
“Just killing time.”
“You look tired.”
She’d gained a decade but he wasn’t to know. “Flatterer!”
He settled a firm arm round her waist. “I’m done. Let me take you home.”
Helen allowed herself to lean into his embrace. “Yes. Home.”
This was their time. Nick wasn’t lost. He was here.
Just as he always would be.
