Prompt: Cuddle Drabble


The yawning trick? Seriously? I watch as Luke yawns despite the insane amount of coffee we’ve both just inhaled. His arm’s around my shoulder a moment later and I can’t hide my chuckle.

“Something wrong?” He smiles as I shake my head.

“No. You’re…fine.” I say though it’s anything but 'fine'. At least he’s not kissing me or calling me beautiful or confusing the hell out me like the last time. I am tired, despite all the coffee. It can’t hurt to put my head down on his chest and close my eyes for a few minutes, right?

*softly* I know...I saw them before. When...you...he...um...

*she can't look at him*

*shakes her head and clears her throat* I...burnt his home down. Not with my fire but I did. It was...a mistake. We were only trying to help. I could have said no but I...wasn't brave enough to open my mouth and say anything.

Liz, everyone makes mistakes. That's what makes you human, not what makes you bad. If you kept repeating those mistakes, and didn't learn from them, that would be a different story.

*snorts at the 'keeps repeating those mistakes' bit*

I'm not the brightest girl, in case you haven't noticed.

*recent events, however have shown Liz that Luke is exactly right. The talk with Fox Mulder more than anything.*

You don't honestly believe that. And you're not the type to fish for compliments... so why do you keep talking that way about yourself?

You're stuck in some kind of circle, Liz. You haven't shared enough with me for me to know why, or how to help you. But I want to.

I...

*scoffs*

I'm just not that great is all. I don't see why people think I am.

*shrugs*

Maybe I like circles.

*Hello, walls. This is what usually happens when people call her on her bullshit. Have fun with that.(*

These circles you like so much... are they making you happy? Because you don't seem like it.

[open-flame.livejournal.com]

There are more important things in this world than me being 'happy'.

*can't resist pulling her into a hug*

Not to me, beautiful. Not to me.
