LUCAS

I exit the cab as i pay the driver. I had spent the previous night in a hotel, unsure where else to go as my only previous home was the sene of my crime.

I stand back as the cab drives off and i hold my notebook to my chest as i begin to walk up to the visitor entrance of the prison.

I stand back a little as i see all the familiar guards just walking about the building. I remind myself that I'm not a prisoner anymore- i have a right to visit someone just as much as the next person.

I lift my head as i stand in the short line of people waiting to get scanned and granted access to the meeting area.

I follow everyone else's leads as i place my small amount of belongings in the tray and watch as they pass through the X-ray machine. If i wasn't so painfully aware that i was at the prison i had only just been let go out of, i would have joked that i was at the airport.

A guard calls the next person forward and i step through the body scanner. It doesn't beep so i walk away from it and grab my things the other side.

Suddenly i get a tap on my arm.

I shoot around, prepared for anything, before i see who it is.

"Green" I say

He smiles, politely, as he gathers my jacket from the tray and hands it to me.

I get slightly taken back by him being so kind- of cause he always was to me, he was the nicest out of any of the guards who still live, but him going out of his way to help me throws me.

"Here" He says as he hands the object to me.

I take it with a small smile, before he sees my notebook in the tray.

"Miss Lucas I'm sorry, but any forms of notes or anything that can have hidden messages inside cannot be taken into the visitation room" He says "I can put it into a locker for you"

He goes to take the object from the tray but i pick it up first.

"Lucas I'm sorry, but it's the rules" He says quietly

"You are not taking this" I say, sternly. "It's the only thing i own that means something to me, you cannot take it" I say as the panic in my voice creeps in.

Before a scene takes place, i feel someone's hand on my back.

"I'll take it from here, Green, thank you" A familiar voice says

I turn and see Pope

"Come with me" He says

_____________

We enter his office. As i sit down on the chair i have sat in before i start to feel uncomfortable and out of place. I shouldn't have come back, but i was doing this for Ink.

"Would you like a drink?" He offers. I look at him like he's crazy "I offer all my guests a drink" He finishes

"You hadn't offered me one before" I say

He smiles "All non convicts i mean"

I just look at him as i grow more and more weirded out by the situation "Umm, no thank you"

"Ok then, well we will get on with the issue at hand" He says

I hold the book closer

"You're not taking it-"

"You can keep it with you" He says "I will let you, just this once as i have seen just how ex convicts get possessive over their first actual belongings" He says

I go to argue that it is not like that, but I decide just to nod.

"However, i will need to look over its content to determine that it doesn't have any words that could be used to spread information or to help a prisoner" He says

I nod as i hand it over "It's purely pictures" I say

After the book is out of my fingertips i start to blush

"You wouldn't understand" I say

I know exactly what he's going to think. That book is filled with doodles of Inks tattoos, he's going to think that i am some obsessed girlfriend... or fiancé

He scans over every page, which takes its time, before he hands it back to me

"You have a talent Miss Lucas, you should peruse it... ex convicts like yourself struggle to find jobs on the outside, but maybe freelance work like this could be your calling" He suggests

I just nod with rose-tinted cheeks.

He stands up and i follow suit

"Well, i will let you get on with your visit- no prizes for guessing who you are visiting" He says with a small chuckle.

I didn't know Pope actually had a sense of humour he's like a whole different man now that i am being spoken to as a person and not a prisoner.

I move to leave his office before I remember something.

I turn round "Actually there is one more thing i was hoping to discuss with someone today..."

_____________________________

Pope leads me back into the main visitor area and i smile as he walks away again.

"Follow me, miss Lucas" Green says as he leads me

I chuckle "You know that you can just call me Lucas, right?" I say "You have been doing for weeks, might as well continue"

As we are down a hallway and away from the masses of visitors he lets me see a small smile

"It feels weird for me to call you that as well" He admits "But we have to, it's customary for visitors"

I nod

"Then feel free to treat me like the rest, I've not felt normal in quite a while" I admit

He wavers before explaining "Actually you are quite different" He says "You being a visitor i mean. You have to see Scofield in a separate place to the other families" He says

I almost have a go at him then, why do i still get treated as less than everyone else even when I've served my time?

"Because Scofield is in Psych you have to see each other in a separate room to the others... you know... in case he needs a sedative" He says

I sigh "Of cause"

___________

Green opens the door for me and i walk in after him, i immediately see Ink sitting on a metal chair as he is the only person in the room apart from his guard.

I don't say a word as i rush up to him and pull him into a hug.

I squeeze him for merely seconds before the guards are calling for us to separate.

"Yes" I say before we let go of each other "Yes i will marry you"

He smiles as he pulls me in and kisses me. Our lips dance only a short tango before the guards take a warning step closer to us.

Ink chuckles as we pull apart

"She just agreed to marry me, give us a second Tailor" He says, aimed to the guard that's behind him.

I smile as i sit down across from him- nothing could ruin this day.
