Timeless: One Shots

Freezing

"Hurry," Rufus yelled behind him at Lucy and Wyatt. They were running from the royal guard who thought they assisted in the attempted murder of the Queen. Wyatt was in the very back, making sure Lucy was not left behind. Her giant ball gown dress made it hard for her to run.

"Halt," an angry guard shouted at the trio. The three don't give up so easily and keep a fast running pace. Lucy began to fall further behind because of her high heels and her dress. Luckily Wyatt took notice and took her hand in his and pulled her along.

Wyatt and Lucy began to gain momentum as they ran from the guards. However, they were not fast enough, a guard appeared in front of the causing the to stop. They were caught, but to their advantage Rufus wasn't. Both of them raised their hands in surrender and were guided back the way they came.

The guards had led them deep under the castle, to the dungeons. Lucy got a shiver when they were pushed into the same cold, damp cell.

"I'm so sorry Wyatt," Lucy muttered out, "if it wa-wasn't for this stupid dress and my heels we would have gotten away."

Lucy couldn't look him in the eyes, but she felt him stare at her. Instead she stared at her folded hands in front of her. Until the cold of the cell touched her skin did she look up the slightest.

"Lucy it was not your fault," Wyatt breathed backing away from the cell door to the middle of the room. He smiled at her, but she still would not look at him. He gently touched her folded hands rubbing circles with his thumb.

"Yes it was. I just fe-feel like I failed you and Rufus," Lucy said finally looking up at him. Only he was looking down at their hands.

"Are you cold," he suddenly asked noticing her hands had been shaking. She nodded, "I'm a little cold."

He took off his overcoat and draped it across her shoulders. She felt butterflies rise in her stomach at the sudden warmth. This is when she finally acknowledged that he was so close to her. Lucy couldn't help but tell her self it was normal that they were this close.

Pounding knocked both of them away from their thoughts. It was the guard that brought them here, "The Queen wanted me to inform you your execution will be tomorrow morning."

Lucy's stomach dropped and she tightened her grip on Wyatt's hands. Wyatt squeeze her hands, trying to soothe her.

"Lucy, it's going to be alright. Rufus will get us out of here," Wyatt said calmly. She nodded and noticed a bench behind them in front of the bar window. She walked over to it, still holding onto Wyatt's hand, and sat down. She wasn't completely sure why they were still holding hands but she didn't complain.

"Lets talk about something," Wyatt tried his blue eyes pouring into her brown.

"Okay, like what," Lucy asked finally releasing her hand from his to hug herself.

"Like how cold you are," Wyatt laughed wrapping an arm around her and pulling her close. They both stayed like that not saying a word.

"It just se-seems to be getting colder and th-this window is not helping," Lucy shivered. She was pressed up against Wyatt's chest and she could hear his heart beat. The wind howled against the bars and she snuggled closer to him out of habit. Wyatt hugged Lucy closer.

"Hey Lucy, now that we are kinda stuck here. I-I wanted to talk about us," Wyatt stumbled out as the wind howled. Lucy looked up into his blue eyes.

"What a-about u-us," Lucy shivered once more.

"Well a-are relationship has been changing. I don't think we are just friends and partners anymore," Wyatt said and Lucy nodded along. She rested her head against his chest. His heart was beating faster as he waited for her response.

"I agree Wyatt. I mean the ki-kisses we have shared can't just be thrown to the side," Lucy stated still leaning against Wyatt.

"I mean, I know you have a fiancé and everything I just," Wyatt sucked in a breath, "I just want to see where are relationship would go."

"Wy-Wyatt Logan are you-" Lucy was cut off by a loud gust of wind. Her skin felt like ice and she tried to get closer to Wyatt. He was just so warm. Wyatt couldn't help but smile and hold Lucy close as she tried to get warm.

"Lucy," Wyatt said, an idea had popped into his mind. She looked up at him and he kissed her. Lucy smiled and kissed him back, it seemed to warm her up instantly. They forgot about the world the forgot about the cold, damp cell they were locked in. They forgot how cold they were. Lucy and Wyatt just enjoyed each other's soft lips. When they broke away clanging of keys could be heard.

"Let's get you guys out of here," Rufus said unlocking the cell door all the way. "Oh, and I saw the kiss. We will be talking about that."

Lucy blushed and Wyatt laughed before they both stood up and left the freezing cell.
