Mother and Child Reunion? -- RP for Dom and Bea
*OOC -- Open to kismetandcoffee and eventually benditlikebea. Happens after Cable's meeting with his and Domino's (possible) child from an alternative universe. Nate goes to break the news.
By the time Bea stopped crying, Irene had emerged, rather miraculously considering the unpredictable state of the island's food supply, with an honest-to-God cheeseburger.
Nathan excused himself before he could find out that the girl was anorexic or vegetarian -- there would be time for typical teenager-and-parent drama. Now he had to go about the somewhat less typical task of informing his girlfriend that they just might have a child she didn't remember having or know anything about.
This was a weird day, even for him.
He found Domino in the training room, doing cool-down stretches after her daily jog and workout. Sometimes, Nathan realized, he wasn't sure what else she did with her days. He didn't know whether she was happy here. He didn't know why she stayed. They had so many things to work out between the two of them, he had no idea what it would mean to inject a child into the equation -- for them or for her.
Nate knew he ought to start the conversation, but he stood there for a moment, watching her move. He had watched Bea on the monitors, as she came in with Irene -- only for a little while, but she moved like an athlete. Like her mother.
