Denial, ch. 15: Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me
by robinfanatic
They were waiting by the portcullis for him. His gang. She'd rolled her eyes when he goaded Guy only minutes before. He could be so cocky, so very cocky, at times. He could have ruined everything, acting like a child, demanding that Guy ask for help. She was surprised he hadn't insisted that Guy say 'please'.
God, she missed him. It had been more than a week since they'd spoken. That secret rendezvous in Sherwood had been far too brief. It seemed like months since she'd let him use her as a hostage and she'd returned to the castle. Her heart ached. She missed feeling his fingers twined through hers. Missed his kisses. Missed nights cuddled in his arms by the campfire. Would she ever watch the sun go down again with Robin at her side?
>>>----------------->
The world seemed to be crashing in around him. The sheriff was no where to be found. Prince John's army was beating a deadly path toward Nottingham. He'd let Marian convince him to send for Hood. And Hood, that cocky, smug bastard, had forced him to ask for his help. How fucking humiliating. He closed his eyes and fought back the urge to find something--someone--to hurt.
When he recalled Marian's soft touch on his arm, the pain became bearable.
If the sun had to go down on him today and take Nottingham with it, at least he had that memory.
>>>----------------->
How were they going to get out of this? Allan hurried through the streets, issuing orders, receiving search updates from the castle guards. None of it good.
He cringed when he spotted Guy on the castle stairs. The dark knight would not be happy. He steeled himself wondering where the blow would fall. Marian wasn't around to keep him safe this time. But he breathed a sigh of relief when Guy only ordered him to keep searching.
And then he spotted Will. All of a sudden it didn't seem to matter if Gis ever laid another hand on him. He'd remember only Will's strong hands caressing his body in quiet, secluded places in the forest.
As the sun trailed across the sky he knew that he had to tell Will how sorry he was. Had to tell him how much he loved him. The last thing he had to do on this earth before the sun went down was talk to Will.
