Soulmates in any universe or time 《 Wattys 2018 》

Are you trying to kill me

It was our first Monday being suspended, I was home alone since Leonard had signed up to work that morning but I decided to bring him lunch, since he always packed mine for school.

The store was only a five minute walk away from the house and the park was right across the street from the store so I decided to make us a little picnic, sandwiches, and two travel mugs of hot chocolate one with mini marshmallows, just like he likes it and the other with a heaping pile of whipped cream for me.

Before walking into the store I stopped outside, glancing through the window to make sure he was inside, sure enough he was there, back toward the window, but I still knew it was him, I walked into the store, moving the door open just slow enough to be able to reach up and stop the bell from making a noise so I could sneak up on him without him noticing.

I had lunch in hand as I just walked up until I was about two foot behind him, I leaned against the display stand looking all relaxed and calm.

It was quiet when I spoke up "Hello Leonard." I seen him jump as I said that and he whipped his body around to see me, "Jesus Sara!" He started, "Are you trying to kill me?" He panted a bit, "Not yet." I said sarcastically as he looked down to my hand, "What's that?" he asked as he walked toward me a bit, "Lunch if you want." He just smiled at first, "Sure." he laughed a bit as he agreed to my offer.

We were sitting at a table in the middle of the park, "You know you really shouldn't have walked all this way alone, right?" He said as he retrieved his hot chocolate from me, I nodded, "Is that concern I hear from the all mighty Leonard Snart?" I laughed at what I said, "Yes, who knows if Mick would ambush you like he did m-" he stopped before finishing his sentence.

For a bit I was quiet, "Like he did what Len?" I sensed how he tensed up when I asked that, he was quiet still, I reached across the table and grabbed his hand, "You can tell me anything." He finally looked up from his hot chocolate and met my eyes, "Before you got released from the hospital he ambushed me, your mom and dad practically begged me to tell them who did it but I was scared to tell them." He frowned and looked away from me, "And you let me date him?" I said a bit more harshly than I intended.

He looked up at me again, "You looked happy, I wasn't going to take that away from you." I was speechless for a minute, "Sorry I didn't know he was like that to you, until, well you know." He just smirked, "Until he got his ass handed to him." I laughed as he joked with me, not long until we finished lunch and he had to head back to work, "I'll be home in about two hours, I'll make dinner for you and Quentin when I get home." He said with a smile on his face before I turned to head back home.
