Peter lays contently in Wade's embrace. Their sweaty skin becoming cold as a ceiling fan blows air about the room. The ring on his finger glinting from the small amount of light in through the window of their new home.
Their small cat jumping up onto the lover's bed and wedging herself between the two warm, naked bodies.
Numerous pictures are hung around the room, many of each other together or of individuals taken by the other partner.
A crumple of used red and blue spandex sits in the corner from where it had been thrown after a nights work of swinging. A leather one more nicely hanging in the closet along with an organized arsenal of weapons. A folded, black suit hidden deeply in the closet from where it is only brought out for missions requiring its use.
Peter quietly sighs in his sleep as he dreams. Dreams filled with no timers, bodies or blood. Just them. Just he and his soulmate. Letting him cherish more of his love. A life he would never allow to escape again.
No more anger...
No more hate.
Only love.....*
Some are meant to earn a happy ending. Some learn it. Most dream of it but never set out to find it.
Never blame yourself or your soulmate for something neither of you can control.
Promise never to expect immediate happiness with your soulmate. For there is no such thing. Standing true to them until the end, through the problems and pain is what makes you their soulmate.
Fate can make mistakes. And sometimes the cost is dear.
Never expect the best from your soulmate.... Because they are only human.
But in Peters case.... he isn't human. He's a monster. And the bodies and blood and the timers might be gone for now. But everyone has to wake up from the happy dreams and face the hell that is their reality.
His story is only starting.
And it's dripping in the blood of strangers.
I will be posting the bonus story for StopWatch. Should be up tomorrow and then after I'll post the next story, I hope you check them out. Thank you so much.
