Desperado

010-

She was sick, and he was forcing her out of the warehouse. She sat, slouched in an armchair wearing the dress he had made for her by Christopher Kane, waiting for him to be done so they could go! He convinced her this was something they needed to do, they needed to get out before they get too comfortable wrapped up in the comfort of each other.

She sniffled and exhaled our of her mouth, as Maurice made his way to her. "Mmm! I knew red would suit you!" He beamed her way as she groaned.

"Can't we just stay here baby?! I ain't feeling too good and I'm freezing!" She whined hoping it would convince him to stay, but with the shake of his head she huffed.

"It'll be good to get outta here Robyn now that we can!" He helped her to her feet and pressed a sweet kiss into her plump lips that matched the color of her dress. The rest of her face was pretty bare, her cold making it difficult to decorate her face with makeup.

"Fine..." She sniffled, with a little cough just to emphasise how sick she was.

Turning up the seat heating on the passengers side, he heard a sigh of content as Robyn snuggled more into the seat. He grabbed her hand and quickly rubbed it between his, She was so cold. She pouted at him as he laughed at how much effort she was going through to make him feel bad, not that he'd tell her it was working because then that would ruin the whole night he had planned!

They were dressed up in their formal wear, and were on their way to none other than Georgio Baldi's, the majority of food they had consumed had come from there. Robyn being obsessed with just how good all of their dishes were! He was excited to finally take her out into the world now that it was safe for them to do so and he didn't have to worry about their cover being blown! Everything to do with the Miami taking was over and done with, a done deal. He made sure to smooth everything over himself, just so he knew it was done fully.

Maurice smiled as Robyn sang along to the radio which was currently playing Blink Of An Eye by Dolapo. When she first heard the song she made sure to memorise the lyrics, later recalling them when the two were more intimate and he had asked her to tell him what was on her mind, because it was evident she was miles away.

"- You caught my eyes I'll be honest, I wasn't looking to find myself fallen..." she frowned as the car turned off and she couldn't hear her favourite tune play out.

Robyn held on tightly to Maurice's hand as he led her inside the almost full restaurant. They found their way to the reserved table in his name, Robyn sitting in the chair that had been pulled out for her.

Smiling brightly at Maurice as they were being complimented on what a beautiful couple they were by an elderly couple beside them, who had already made the assumption they were married.

"She's not wrong yanno! You would make a beautiful wife." He beamed back at her as she rolled those emerald eyes so effortlessly. He sat back in his seat just admiring her, she was truly magnificent, he wasn't exactly sure how he ended up being hers but he prayed to God he didn't mess it up.

"What?" Robyn asked, raising her eyebrow at him, thanking the waiter as he delivered their food. She looked back up at him as he smiled shaking his head.

"Nothing, I'm just- you just look amazing!" His heart thumped in his chest as her cheeks filled with a pinky blush, her eyes quickly rolling to cover up the flattery she felt.

"I don't feel amazing, so can you just hurry up and eat so we can get outta here and fuck?" She sighed as he nodded.

"Although we ain't done after this... I have more planned! And I'm hoping you're going to stay awake for it!" He laughed as she looked at him, her face the definition of curiosity as she tried to find any cue she could as to what he was thinking.

Robyn peeked at Maurice, they had been driving for some time and at one point she had obviously fallen asleep, now waking up covered in his leather jacket. She settled back into her curled up position and allowed herself to sink back to sleep.

Maurice turned off of the interstate, taking him down a long scenic road that would eventually lead to his place. Since everything had settled down and they could finally come out of hiding, he figured they'd move to his own place where they wouldn't be interrupted by his employees randomly bursting in on them unannounced... but that was the one and only time Jamie thought to even try, interrupting the both of them asleep fully naked. Maurice shook off the memory before he changed his mind on keeping Jamie on.

Maurice pulled up at his 5 bed residence, leased to Christopher Maurice Brown, his birth name. He smiled seeing that it was just how he left it three months ago. Looking to his right and saw Robyn fast asleep, he knew better than to wake her so climbed out quietly and scooped her up in his arms.

Awkwardly he unlocked the front door and took her straight upstairs to the bedroom, trying to undress her, she stirred so he stopped all movement and didn't even dare to breath! Once she was back in her slumber, he proceeded to undress her and hung the dress up when he succeeded. He gently slid one of his T-shirt's over her, before stripping himself and climbing in beside her.

He whispered his goodnights to her softly as he cuddled her into him, kissing at her neck as he told her just how much he loved her. A small smile rising on his lips as she moaned, still fast asleep. He loved that even when she was asleep, he was the first thing on her mind, he loved listening to her talk in her sleep because that's when she was most honest. Although once conscious she would deny that she even felt that kinda way. He soon got an I love you out of her though! Through his persuasive ways.

He honestly hadn't been happier than the past three months with her had made him.
