Dated December 5thSince Parkman's arrival, Mohinder's dreams had been dark, disturbed, even violent. Knowing that Hiro had corrected the timestream, that Molly and Nathan and he had all survived Peter exploding in the square banished them in daytime, but his subconscious mind could not let go of the timeline he had lived and died in, or left from.

Until his brain caught up with both. Then he was backing out of the room, murmuring... something. It wasn't 'sorry,' he knew that, and it wasn't 'fuck you,' though God, he wished it would have been. It was just... mumbled gibberish, and as soon as his feet caught up, he was out the room, boots hitting the flooring in slow, arcing steps backward until he turned and headed for the elevator, tears stinging his eyes through the numbness. He was walking through molasses, thinking through fog, and loving through impossibility.
As the elevator doors closed, he leaned back against the back wall, hands on the guard rail. He bent his leg at the knee, stood there past the opening of the door at the top floor, then wandered numbly out, heading nowhere but so very much out of that building.

It wasn't long before Brian's movements grew faster, his breathing becoming a ragged, shallow pant as he got close, his hand speeding up, tightening on Mohinder's cock.

Levering himself up, Mohinder reached across to the glass still sitting on the coaster and drank healthily. After a long silence and when Brian had finished his cigarette, he turned his attention to Brian. "Since I have a preference for not being ambushed, is there anything I ought to know about that ill-timed interruption?" In retrospect, the roommate idea seemed preposterous. Where would he sleep? And while he might be a friend, the hasty retreat made it dubious.

Mohinder sucked down the rest of his cider and reached for Brian's. "Do you mind? I'll take both glasses to the kitchen on my way out." On his way out, because he had absolutely no intention of staying long enough for round two and more drama. The last thing he needed was a black eye even if you wouldn't be able to see it against his skin.

"I imagine I'll see you around." Not 'thank you' since both had gotten what they wanted out of it. Not 'I hope I'll see you' because frankly so long as Brian didn't die he couldn't possibly care less. In fact, it might be preferable not to. Not that the sex hadn't been lovely, just that this wasn't something he normally did and it might be awkward later to say no if Brian thought it might happen again.
Once he'd pulled on his shirt and shoes, he jerked his chin toward Brian, smiled wryly, and then took his leave.
