Primeval drabble: The One For Me

Title: The One For Me
Author: knitekat
Word Count: 100
Characters: Connor Temple, Abby Maitland, Rex
Rating: 12
Disclaimer: Primeval belongs to Impossible Pictures. Certainly not me. Writing for fun and will replace.
A/N 1: For the P100 challenge 289: Headlights on a Dark Road. Part of my Making An Impression drabble series and follows Like Bonfire Night. Based on comments from a website about the (possible) meaning of the lyrics.
A/N 2: Thanks to the wonderful Fred for looking it over for me. *hugs*


Abby groaned when Connor played the same song over and over again, although Rex seemed to be enjoying it. She knew Connor was missing his... James, but she couldn't imagine him liking this song.

“Con?” When Connor looked up at her with overly-bright eyes, she added, “What's wrong?”

“I know James is the one for me, Abs, but I was so scared of getting hurt I pushed him away before he could dump me.” He sniffed, blinking back tears. “And now I've lost him.”

“No you haven't, Con.” Abby pulled him into her arms. “We'll find him, I promise you.”

Aw!! I was beginning to get rather frustrated that they haven't rescued James yet, but your woobie!Connor is rather adorable, so if you want to keep hurting hm a bit more, I'm all for it.

Sorry for the frustration - I do plan of solving what has happened to James when I a) get a suitable prompt and b) when it makes sense in the series. *paws crossed*

LOL, poor Connor. So much for being worried for James ;)

Thanks for reading.

Connor needs and appreciates the hug.

Glad you think so and thanks for reading.

Aww, poor Connor.

I do love Snow Patrol though, I could listen to some of their songs over and over.

nicely done from another Snow Patrol fan

*sniffles* You'll get him back, Connor!

Also, I am so amused by the idea of Rex bobbing his head to the music. :D

Lovely imagery in this drabble

*sniff*

Poor Connor.....

I wonder what the next prompt will bring.....?

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2012-11-18 03:44 pm (UTC)(link)
*nods* I'm being mean to both of them now, only Rex is happy ;)

Thanks for reading.

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2012-11-18 03:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Sorry, still being mean to him ;)

*nods* although I think Abby might disagree with you (at least over how many times Connor's played it)

Thanks for reading.

*passes a tissue* Connor hopes he will get James back. *paws crossed for the next prompt or two ;)*

Hee, he has form - he bobbed his head to the lift music in S1 ;) Snow Patrol is better)

Thanks for reading.

Um, Connor hopes it will be something helpful.

Thanks for reading.

Oh dear, Abby is in for a great deal of best duty. Its wrong, I know, but I can't help thinking a giant tub of Haagen-Dazs would come in useful here.

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2012-11-19 07:46 pm (UTC)(link)
*nods* Abby is being a very good best friend. Hee, Haagen-Daz might come into it ;)

Thanks for reading.

Thanks, Connor needs the comfort as I'm still being mean to him.

Thanks for reading.

[identity profile] ebonyfeather.livejournal.com 2012-11-21 08:33 pm (UTC)(link)
No, don't think that, Connor! You'll get him back.

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2012-11-21 09:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Poor Connor is just feeling low, but Abby is there for him and I'm sure prompts willing that he'll get James back.

Thanks for reading.

*sniffles* He'll find him!

Can sense Abby's frustration at the repeated song but loving that she could tell he needed a hug.

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2014-03-03 09:17 pm (UTC)(link)
I imagine Connor played it a lot, but Abby will be there for him.

Thanks for reading.
