Remieverse - Quiet Night

[another-phace.livejournal.com]

Remie hummed a soft, merry Cajun tune as she carefully wiped down every glass, tap, and countertop at the bar, cleaning up while the buisness was quite. As usual a few familes were inside, enjoying a relaxing meal, and in the corner a couple men were anxiously watching the football game on a television, sharing nachos and beer and playfully warning eachother occassionally about getting drunk when the owner's wife was around.

Remie smiled to herself as a hand fell to her budding stomach, the smooth, growing lump warm and seeming to emmit its own energy. She smiled fondly, then sighed happily and sat with a virgin margurita to take the weight off her feet for a moment.

Remie took it greatfully. "Dere a few of us runnin' round, chere," she smiled gently. "I jus' be one o' de femmes o' de bunch.

She tucked the blanket over him. "Now, mon ami, what happen t' you?"

"Like Wolvie." Sorrow passed over his face.

Tony knelt out of the way again, watching as the big winged guy brought the pill bottle and a glass with a straw.

Remie smiled and took them, kissing his cheek.

"Open up," she said soothingly, back next to the giant man. "Dese'll help."

He opened his mouth obediently, then swallowed and pulled a slight face at the taste of the pills.

She looked up with a little start, then lowered her eyes back to the man. "Tony Lefever, ma'am."

Ettiene drank deeply, but then choked and put a hand up to squeeze his nose as he groaned slightly.

"I learn how t' read people 'long time ago," she said gently, smiling. "You need t' stay here, petite. In de mornin', if you wan, I can show you a couple places t' make dis a real vacation. But," she paused and looked out as the last of the families rose, paid the bill, and left. "It ain' de bes' time o' night for a femme t' be strollin' about alone. You stay one night, at de leas'."

Then she looked at the big man severely. "An' I gots no idea what we gon' do wit you, army boyo."
