Primeval Drabble: Parted

Title: Parted
Author: knitekat
Word Count: 100 + 100
Characters: James Lester, Connor Temple
Rating: 12
Disclaimer: Primeval belongs to Impossible Pictures. Certainly not me. Writing for fun and will replace.
A/N: For the P100 challenge 240: Keeping Warm. Part of my Making An Impression drabble series and follows Warnings. Thanks to Fred for looking at it for me. Um, angsty?


Connor's smile faded as soon as he closed his door and looked around his old room; it was good of Abby to offer him somewhere to stay, but it wasn't home, it just wasn't.

He climbed into bed and huddled miserably under his covers, hugging one of James' shirts he had accidentally packed. OK, so it hadn't been an accident, he still loved James and had wanted a reminder of him; even now.

He buried his nose and breathed the well-loved scent, blinking back the tears that threatened. He couldn't help wonder if James' new lover was keeping him warm.

****

Lester felt so cold as he lay in their empty bed. Connor had filled his life with so much warmth, not just physically when they had hugged, snuggled and shagged. No, Connor had thawed Lester's frozen heart and shown him he was worthy of being loved when he had given up on ever being wanted.

Lester had had it all, again, and had thrown it all away, again.

But this time he would not give up, he would win Connor back. He would prove his love and that he was worthy of Connor.

He fell asleep, warmed by that thought.

Trouble in paradise? Eek!

Unfortunately, yes. Sorry. The boys are certainly not happy. Thanks for reading, even with the eek ;)

*Meep* *MEEP* *meep* :'-(( *Wibble* *WIBBLE* *wibble* Not cool. Poor boys. They NEED each other so they both have a snuggle buddy. I would have hoped that a prompt like keeping warm would have launched fuzzy fluffy binnies, but now I'm all cold after reading this. :-( You need to lock these two on the other side of an anomaly so they can figure out their issues! ASAP!. LOL!

Sorry, but the boys couldn't just snuggle after what's happened between them. I'm sure they will though, once they do figure out their issues. Hee, maybe, we'll see what the prompt brings ;)

[identity profile] tay-21.livejournal.com 2011-12-14 12:45 am (UTC)(link)
:-( Yes, I know there's no quick fix, especially with a drabble series, but still. They haven't even talked to each other. :-(( *wails a little*

(BTW, just so you know, I'm meeping and wibbling because I love this so much. :-D)

I'll see if I can encourage the bunny out of its angst ;)

(Hope you continue to love it).

Lovely angst - and won't it make the eventual happy ending even more heartfelt?

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2011-12-13 06:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Thanks, angst does seem to be my default. Hee, is that a hint? ;) Although I am hopeful that the boys sort themselves out. Thanks for reading.

Oh, so sad, but really sweet!
Lovely drabble!

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2011-12-13 06:41 pm (UTC)(link)
I am being mean to them, they just need to figure out they still want each other *nods* Thanks, glad you liked it.

Oh boys! *sniffs*

Sorry, but the boys couldn't just make up. *passes tissue* Thanks for looking at it for me and for reading.

Definitely angsty! Fix it now! *glares*

;)

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2011-12-13 06:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah, it got a bit more angsty than I expected. That is the plan, I'll have to see what the boys think of the prompt(s). *eek and tries pitiful kitty eyes*

[identity profile] deinonychus-1.livejournal.com 2011-12-13 07:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Meep! Angst alert! You're being very mean to them lately.

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2011-12-13 10:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Sorry. Um, I have been, haven't I. It was an accident, the boys wrote themselves but I'm trying to convince my muse to be nice but we'll have to see if it will be. Thanks for reading.

[personal profile] samueljames 2011-12-13 08:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh no. I really felt bad for both of them here but Lester's determination to fix things.

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2011-12-13 10:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Sorry about that but the storyline demanded I was mean to them, but Lester decided to do something about it (I hope). Thanks for reading.

[identity profile] eriah211.livejournal.com 2011-12-13 09:57 pm (UTC)(link)
*Meep*
I want Lester to succeed in his plan, I really, really do.

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2011-12-13 10:35 pm (UTC)(link)
*hugs*
I'm sure you are not the only one (Lester does too).
Thanks for reading.

Oh god!! Lester, please say this is all a mistake! Whoever that guy was, whatever it had to do with Burton, fix this!!!! *wibbles*
Poor Connor :(((
*cries*

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2011-12-14 10:01 pm (UTC)(link)
*pets fifi* Don't worry, it was all a misunderstanding and Lester wants to fix it. I'm being mean to both of them *nods*

*oops, passes tissues*

[identity profile] kristen-mara.livejournal.com 2011-12-15 11:21 am (UTC)(link)

Meanie.
Meanie.

Even if sunshine and kittens came up in a prompt, you'd find the angst, wouldn't you? *G*

I look forward to seeing how you get the boys out of this one!

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2011-12-15 08:55 pm (UTC)(link)
LOL.

Um, possibly ;)

So do I, I just hope the boys cooperate.

Thanks for reading.

*sniffle* Oh, poor boys! But at least Lester seems quite determined. Connor hanging onto the shirt is a lovely image (and he can't even pretend to himself that it was an accident, awww, bless).

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2011-12-16 10:04 pm (UTC)(link)
*passes a tissue* Sorry, but angst was called for. *nods* Lester's not going to give up on Connor. Glad you liked that image of Connor, he's still in love even though Lester's hurt him. Thanks for reading.

[identity profile] lsellersfic.livejournal.com 2011-12-16 04:56 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm glad Lester isn't giving up!

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2011-12-16 10:15 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't think Lester would give up, so I'm glad you liked that. Thanks for reading.

*passes tissues* Sorry, the angst demanded to be written. Thanks for reading.
