I Can't Let You Go

Visit

"Are you ready?" Richard arrived at her house. A week passed and they agreed to visit Kit in Connecticut together. 
"What if they don't let us in? I still can't reach him, and I tried to call the Medical center but ... they declined to give any information." Emilia grabbed her bag and closed the door behind herself. 
"We are actors. We'll find a solution." Richard laughed at her and took the bag from her hand. He was a gentleman, a little jerk sometimes, but through the years he became more handsome and he became more serious too. She remembered when she ran into Kits' room from Richard because he wanted to pick her up. Maybe she should have thanked him. She spent that night in Kits' room because of him. When they first ... had sex. She remembered vividly that night, how could she ever forget. That was a special night, and how idiots they were. They denied their feelings for so many years... for nothing. Even if they wanted to commit it... HBO and... David or Dan would have never let them. That was sure. She remembered how they warned them many times, when they spent too much time together, that they can't be a couple, do not even think about it, because that would screw the ending. What ending? She shook her head. 
"Em?"
"Yes?" she raised her eyes at Richard. 
"Okay, I ask one last time. Do you even hear about anything that I've told you in the past few seconds."
"I am sorry." Emilia smiled. "I just... hope we can get in."
"Do not worry, until you see me." Richard laughed and get into the car, and Emilia followed him.

Hours passed but they arrived in Connecticut.
"I can't believe you booked a private jet." Em rolled her eyes. 
"Well... you know, when you work with the biggest studio... it has some advantages." Richard smiled. "And it was easier. Did you check the flight schedule from LA to Connecticut? No way." he sighed. "And you'll come back to LA tonight, right? After our visit." he continued.
"No. To be honest. I ... go to Houston tomorrow." she answered. "We'll have a convention there."
"Remember when we were last together in a convention? In 2013? It was fucking cool." he answered
"Yeah, that was my favorite one." she nodded. "That time I still wanted to pick you up, if I want to be honest." Richard told her. "But... you did not even pay any attention to me."
"That is not true." Emilia made a face. "I thought you are handsome, but ... I did not want to be one of your hookups." 
"That would be that bad?" Richard smirked.
"Okay, past is the past. Thank god we grew up and let those things go." Emilia laughed a bit. 
"Who said I do not want to pick you up anymore?" Richard turned to her, and Emilia was speechless for a second. "Just kidding Clarke, but you should have seen your face." he laughed at her.
"Dick" she poked him. They were joking and laughing meanwhile they were on their way to the health center. 

They amazed by the outside of the building but when they entered into the great luxurious hall their mouth really fell open. 
"I saw in the pictures it is a wow, but it is really a wow." Emilia looked around. 
"How much does he pay for this?"
"It worth every penny if he gets better," Em answered immediately. "I mean... I think." she tried to correct herself. "As you said... it is important for him to gets better."
She walked on and headed to the reception. 
"Good morning." she put her best smile to her face. "We would be interested in one of patience. We were coming from London to here. To see how he feels himself. Because you did not give us any... information on the phone." Emilia finished, and Richard stepped next to her, with his gorgeous smile. 
"I am sure the beautiful young lady will help us," he added, and Emilia just rolled her eyes. Why actors always think if they flirt with the girls they can achieve everything.
"What is his name?" The woman looked at Richard.
"Kit Harington," he answered.
"Christopher" Emilia suddenly realized maybe that is why they did not give any information. He must use his full name. "Christopher Catesby Harington" she leaned to the counter. 
"He is... "the nurse was searching on the computer. "It seems like it is your lucky day, his doctor allowed him to have guests. But he is on treatment right now. You have to wait." she added. "I have to register you in the system. Names?"
"Richard Madden." 
"Ahm... Euphemia Bennett," she answered, and she saw from the corner of her eyes, how Richard was looking at her. 
"Thank you, just sit down, and I'll let you know when you can meet with him." 
They walked to the chairs and did what the nurse told them. 
"Euphemia Bennett?" Richard leaned closer to her. 
"I  don't think it is a clever decision to let them know my real name. What if it goes out? People immediately start to speculate." she shrugged her shoulder. 
"Wow, you really try to keep yourself in incognito." 
"I had to learn it over the years. There are many fans... following me, sneaking around. So... I've learned how to do it."
"I thought you enjoy fame." Richard frowned.
"Sometimes I wish... to disappear from the eyes of the world. Sometimes it is too much. But probably, when the show is over, the fame will decrease." she sighed. She was nervous. She did not see him. Three weeks. That was so long. She wrote a message to him every day, even if he did not see it, sooner or later he'll turn his phone on and she was sure, he'll be happy about it.
