“I can never do anything right, can I?” Cisco said through gritted teeth as he cradled his crying son in his arms. “Shh, Shh. It’s okay Dante, Daddy’s gotchu,” he cooed. “I’m sorry I’m not here all the time. Daddy’s out saving lives when he’s not here.” At this point, he was talking to both his wife and their infant son. “I know it’s scary when I don’t call, when you and Mommy don’t know what’s going on, and I’m so-” Cisco’s apology was cut short when his lips were met with Lisa’s.
Lisa was still a little annoyed until she watches Cisco with Dante. She could never be upset at all when she saw what an amazing father Cisco was. Lisa smiles when Cisco puts Dante down and quickly goes over to their son and hugs him from behind tickles Dante’s neck a little. “Hey, your not going to bed without giving Mommy a hug and kiss right?” Dante turns around quickly and wraps his arms around her neck as Lisa hugs him then gives him a kiss on the nose making him squint and giggle. He then returns a kiss to her nose smiling. “Thank you, I love you sweetie. Have sweet dreams and you know Mommy and Daddy are just in the next room if you need us.” Dante smiles and says “I love you Mommy” before running off into his bedroom.
She stands up and watches as Dante goes into his room excitedly before turning her gaze back to Cisco. “I’m your wife Cisco, of course I always know.” Lisa closes her eyes as his kisses her on the cheek, still just relieved to know he was safe. With a nod she says “I’ll get ready for bed and just meet you in there.” By the time Cisco comes into the bedroom, Lisa had just been finishing brushing her teeth. Once she was done she comes back into the bedroom dressed in her silk nightgown and was equipped with the first aid bag. “Well this is a much better view than last night.”
Cisco sat on the bed and fiddled with his shoes before kicking them off. “You know, I feel the same way,” he said as he pulled off his jacket, revealing a dark tank top underneath. He looked up at his wife and his eyes immediately went to hers.
“I’m sorry, Lis. We were on a stakeout, I couldn’t risk blowing our cover. We followed these guys from here to Star City and back. There was, well, a lot of fighting, and since I don’t have super speed, I took quite a bit of the physical blows. A bullet may or may not have grazed my side, I’m not completely sure. The adrenaline is still coursing through my body.” Cisco paused, standing and closing the distance between them. He wrapped his arms around his wife and leaned in a gave her a soft kiss. “Baby, I’m so sorry. I’m sorry I didn’t let you know I was okay.”
“Nobody, it doesn’t matter.” Cisco sniffled, using one hand to hold a bag of frozen peas to his face and holding the other close to his body. “I’ll be fine,” he lied.
Lisa tries to keep her anger at his attackers to a minimum for the time being and just focus on Cisco. As she listens to Cisco explain what they had done she swallowed hard and her hand curled into a fist. She wanted nothing more than to give those idiots the same treatment they showed Cisco. Looking up at Cisco before leaning in and softly kiss him. “Cisco, its going to be okay.” Lisa tucked some of his hair behind his ear. “You should lay down so I can check that side of yours. Will you at least let me do that?”
“Yeah.” Cisco said quietly as he unzipped his jacket, sliding his good arm out and slowly manuvering his other arm out with his jaw clenched. He laid back on the couch with a groan, his breathing shallow. His torso was already beginning to bruise, and his wrist was quite swollen at this point.
i will never understand people who get upset with blogs who ‘ post too much ooc ‘.
post out of character things. tell me about your day. did something shitty happen that made you sad or upset ?vent about it. did something killer happen that made you ecstatic and incredibly happy ?brag about it.
this is a place where we continuously tell people it’s okay to feel what we’re feeling and yet the second someone seems to post one thing too much , there are people hiding behind greyfaces telling you not to expression yourself … how about no.
there are people behind these muses & screens. vent , brag , post an icon you thought was funny or attractive. tell us about that kitten video you thought was hilarious , tell us about how someone hurt you , tell us you have a headache ???? talk to us. i want to know how your day is going / went.
don’t shame someone for opening up or sharing what they’re feeling. that’s a new level of low that i’m tired of seeing good people suffer from.
She laughs and blinks a little before giving a nod. “Okay! You are certainly more drunk than I am.” Lisa shrugs and smirks. “I mean its not like I would be complaining at all.”
Lisa smiles and shakes her head. “Cisco! Yes you did find me now what is the secret?” She listens closely and notices the water in his eyes a bit. “Cisco, tell me, tell me what is it?” Lisa jumps a little and looks around when he gets excited until she sees the stain. She squints a little and tilts her head to the side. “I think I see it. I definitely see the fluffy tail.” Lisa stops staring at the stain and takes a playful deep breath before looking over at Cisco. “Wait Cisco that wasn’t the secret right? Please tell me that wasn’t the secret.”
“Secret? Oh yeah! I have a secret, Lisa!” He paused, giggling as he wipes his eyes. “Lisa, Lisa! Guess what?” He whispered, getting closer and closer to the woman. “I think you’re cute!” He giggled, giving her a peck on the cheek.
