"You have your phone?" he asks, making sure even as he relinquishes her hand and wipes the tears away with the sleeve of his hoodie. Leon is already running to his leash in order to bring it to Frank, a well-practiced move. But Frank isn't going anywhere until he's certain they'll stay in contact.
blacksky: (That's my method of coping)

Of course I do,” she soothes before hitting pause. That's not entirely true. “In my jacket pocket. Do you remember where you put it?”

"Yeah, hold on." His eyes flash tellingly, but he moves to the living room to retrieve her phone from her pocket. Hopefully it's not dead. Frank frowns at the blood on the leather, but he ignores it in order to accomplish the task at hand. Not even a moment later he's back with the phone and a charger, plugging it in and setting it down on her bedside table. Along with that glass of water she asked for. "Sure you don't need anything else before we go?" Shove him out or he'll never leave tbh.

That is the look of a man who is going to decide she needs eight pillows and massage before he even looks at the door. Elektra lets out a deep, frustrated sigh. There's no way she's inching up to get that water she asked for until he's clear of the doorway. The second she winches, he's going to get right back in bed. She's gonna have to kick him out before he figures that out.

"I need for you to leave before I decide to get up and walk Leon myself. Please." She doesn't even know why she softens the blow. She's pretty sure he likes it when she's mean, but all the same.

The please is what gets him so it's a good addition. He knows, at least on some level, that he's being unreasonable. He crouches down to snap on Leon's leash and pat the dog's head before turning back to Elektra one last time. It's just a walk and then he can take care of her all day. That's a perfectly reasonable position to have, he thinks. "Okay, okay. We're gone." And they are, after setting the security system and grabbing the keys. He's been out of sight all of two seconds before he's texting her.

do you need anything at the store
blacksky: (Never get 'em out of your head)

It's just enough time for her to inch up to drink her water and firmly regret once again not murdering that man. Elektra sighs loudly, but picks up her phone. A promise is a promise. She wouldn't offer something to him unless she planned to follow through.

She has to shake her head after reading the message. He really is a housewife at times. What's sad is she already knows what he needs from the store. What does that make her again?

I still don't have food in any of these houses.

That's to be expected, of course. Mostly he's just relieved to get a reply even though it's silly.

think you can do soup? i'll get stuff
blacksky: (I don't know why)

There's a slight delay as she starts downing basically every liquid he left within reach. It's funny now that she's started to satisfy her thirst that she only wants more. That's a good sign, she thinks.

I can manage if keeping these fluids down is any indication. It hurts to drink, but a good type of hurt. Everything feels tender.
