Fragile Future *shadowpook and I*

"i'm fine, only a few pinpricls worse for wear" said Gerard,.

Kaien whinced and looked down "And you were mine" he muttered "That's why I needed you so much Yosy, I didnt have a job or moeny, I'd lost my son and the only person I'd ever loved for good, I was so drugged up on anti psychotics that u turned em away, I felt like I could barely fuinction and was about to get lkicked out of my flat for not being able to pay the rent. And you'd were the just the l;ast person in a long line to want to get rid of me. Teachers, parents,psyciatrists,family, none of them seemed to care."

"Litterally. Never underestimate wolf eyes." said Sam dubisuly.

"You never got the chance to turn me away, cos i never asked you. I knew you would just rant on about your own problems

"I'm not an addict!"

"Noone else care about my problems" Said Kaien.

"Kai?" Asked Melody coming in.

Kaien brightened up "Hey Mel" he smiled, giving her a peck on the cheek.

Poisen raised her eye brow. "Mel? whats your name? melissa?"

"Melody" she smiled "You must be Holly"

"Poisonm" corerected Kaien quickly "She doesn't go by Holly anymore love"

"Oh, Sorry, Poison"

"I'm not" said Gerard again.

"Thats what they all say." said Sam leaning back and smiling at him. "Dont tell Helena, but you always where my favourite of Ravens kids. And tahts sayin something. concidering Raven isn't my favourite."

Poisen bit her mouth to stop sniggering at the womans name.

"So...You're Kaiens ex then?" she asked awkwardly.

Kaien gave Poison a look thaty clearly said please doin't tell her.

Poisen bit her li[p smiling. "Yes, yes i am." she said smiling at teh girl. "And i sure do hope taht peachy complection of yours doesn't bruise like a peach she said standing and wandering into the dining room, where she began to giggle

Melody raced after her "What are you talking about?" She asked confused.

Kaien stayed in the living room, his heart sinking.

Poisen looked at her. "You know what? it doesn't matter." said Poisen. She smiled at the woman. "So how'd you meet kaien any way?"

We met in a bar" she said "he was good looking and moping over a nearly empty glass, so I asked him out..." she trailed off "sometimes though, when he's been drinking... did he ever hit you poison?"

"Well, yes. But we married young. we met when we were just 16 you see. We met through his research. He was studing very hard back then and was stressed quite alot." said poisen, using he escuses she had used back then.

Rosemary came through. "Oh hello. I dont believe we've met. Who are you?"

"Oh, I'm Melody, Kaiens Fiance"

"I didn't know you were his fiance." said Poisen. She glanced at Rosemary with worry in her eyes.

"Rosemary smiled, but it didn't reach her eyes. "Oh. How nice3 to meet you. I am the owner of the house and Kaiens sister-in0law. I married his younger brother, Raven.

"Nice to0 meet you Rosemary" smiled Melody.

"Come adn meet my daughter Helena." said Rosemary leading the way.

Sam looked at Gerard. "Dantes probably frantic about me by now." she said. she smiled. "Normaly when i disapear for long periods of time i either end up dead or in a coma. i've been in a coma more often then you've blinked. "

Gerard smiled "It's Ok"

Melody followed.

Kaien spotted them leaving and intercepted Poison "Can I have a word with you? please?"

Poisen smiled sweetly at him. "Of course you can."

"Come down stairs Gerard. I know you hate your family, but just think. You can meet you neices and nepwhew, who is currently wandering around in a MCR t-shirt, and you will get to see your famil. It might be the last time you do if you run away."

"Helena!" called Rosemary.

Helena popped up out of a doorway. "Yes mum?"

Kaien swallowed "Look Hol, Poison, You've got my entire future with Mel in your hands, She knows I've had jailtime but she doesnt know what FOR, For once in your life can you PLEASE keep your mouth shut?"


"Wait, how can I have neices and a nephew? That would mean Helena would have had to have kids"

"Ugh, i hate morten. i keep mixing things up since he wacked my head of a doorstep and made me die. Would it be coisins then?"

Poisen looked at him. "Your going to marry her? are you sure thats a good idea?"

Kaien whinced "No, But I can hardly go back on it" he said

"That'd be it" said Gerard "And don't worry, I hate Morten as well"

"Yeah well, he didn't kill you. or have you not heard the llovely fairytale of how i died and then i was resurected by love? siad Sam withj a weak smile.

Poisen sighed. "She deserves to know kaien."

"She can't!" Said Kaien desperatly "I can't have ANOTHER persn in my life rejeting me"

"I've heard" smiled Gerard.

"Yes so romantic. As long as i love him,, i shall never die." said Sam pretending to swoon

"Stop think of people as rejecting you. They can only reject you if they gove you a reaason."

"What else would she do? Noone woulkd stay with me if they knew what I did to you"
