She finally found the small note taped to the mirror in the bathroom. “Forgive me for running. If you want to find me again, I’d welcome it, but I’ll understand if you don’t. If I were a more generous man, I’d beg you not to. Thank you for last night. It meant the world to me. DH” She smiled at the note and kept on smiling as she went about making a quick breakfast. She could still see those eyes looking at her in the way that she hasn’t been looked at in years, maybe ever, so full of fear, vulnerable eyes of a man who still had everything to lose. She knew how insane this was, how utterly unpragmatic of her. Maybe it was the darkness of what they had both inadvertently done that made her feel a kinship for him that she never felt for anyone else, the knowledge that they would likely be remembered as monsters for centuries to come. In that way, nobody else ever truly understood her, could understand her, but there was something else there, too. Something about the way his long fingers trailed gently down her cheek that made her ache in ways she never had before. She would see him again, but she’d give him a bit of time, give both of them a bit of time. Friday, she decided. Four days away, if she still wanted to then.

She spent the rest of the week in the lab, deliberately not watching the news or reading the papers. And on Friday morning, she picked up her phone and dialed without thinking about what she would say.

“Huxer.” His voice was raspy, underslept.

“I would very much like to see you again, Darius. Pick me up at the lab at six?” she asked quickly and hung up, without letting him answer, giggling to herself like a little girl.
