not_myfirstday: ([fancy] See You Beside Me)
The past few weeks hadn't been anything really monumental, unless you counted people from back home crashing a dinner party and claiming Adam was literally their last hope. If she hadn't watched the Star Wars trilogy over the past year, she wouldn't have even been able to make a slight connection from her husband to Obi Wan Kenobi, and the thought of Angela in the Princess Leia hairstyle was amusing in itself. Still the actual words had been said, and the offer out there, and neither of them at the moment were actually thinking about it. Though if there were thoughts about it Elle wasn't letting Adam know, and the same was for Adam.

Instead Elle had been thinking about something else, and even now standing in the kitchen, with a bare foot pressed to her knee and her hand resting on her stomach she smiled absently. Drumming her fingers against her body she sighed, staring into the fridge at the vast amount of food she didn't feel like eating.

Exhaling she shut the fridge door, shoulders sloped down a bit as she moved through their home. There had been something she wanted to bring up with Adam, before Angela and Noah had shown up. It hadn't been anything she was certain of, but she still at least wanted to make it known, that the thought was there.

Padding through the house, Elle returned to the bedroom where Adam was in bed reading. It was still early, and she had been contemplating breakfast, but after seeing the fridge contents, wasn't hungry anymore. Crawling across the covers, her hands pressed to opposite sides of him, smiling at him, "Morning! I have a question to ask."

Making her way through the small gathering of people now in their apartment, Elle felt somewhat at ease. It was getting easier, the normal part of life at least, having parties, meeting friends. Still there was an unease set to all of her steps, things that even she couldn't exactly step away from. Keeping an eye on the exits, glancing to people just to make sure that they were people she knew, people they had invited.

You could take the girl out of the Company, but apparently you couldn't ever take the Company out of the girl. The smile plastered on her face was as heartfelt as she could manage, but there was still a lot of questions held in the back of her mind. They'd changed her phone twice, the number three times, and still the text messages came. Now her phone sat in the bedroom, resting in a drawer where she couldn't be pulled away by it's distraction. It still came to her mind though, and even when she glances across the room to Adam she knows she's not hiding her questions well.

Adam's viewpoint on all of them, and all the troubles they had brought on themselves was abundantly clear. No one had bothered to come for him, they had left him to rot for thirty years in that cell, and when he finally had a solution it wasn't exactly their top idea. Adam however had left all of that, and made a new life for him, with her. They were happy half a world away, and here she was trying to figure out if there was something they could do. If there was something that was getting messed up, something that was going to pull her back in... she at least wanted to be over there already. She wanted to be settled, and feeling safe before things got insane.

Things always got insane, it was just a matter of how prepared they were for it.
