Murphy's Law
Murphy was an optimist. She fully believed this when she was hit by a water balloon only ten minutes before her first ever job interview. She'd restrained herself from killing the small child and decided it was too late to rush back up the thirty floors to her apartment and change. She'd just have to suck it up and hope for a freak rainstorm on her way.
Jubilee hadn't asked much from life. Just a place to live, some food in her belly and if the situation allowed it, perhaps someone to love as well. She'd been surprised by David, he'd been such a normal guy. There were no hidden agendas, no false face to hide a less then stellar personality. He was just what he was and she loved him so much that she'd wake up from nightmares at 2am in the morning, wondering why he wasn't dead.
She knew it was stupid but her subconscious seemed determine to torture her with every single thing that could take him from her.
Life was not fair, and Murphy had been an optimist. But as long as she could wake up beside David, feel him draw her against him and touch her hair in that way he had. Well, she could live with the dreams.
Now, if only it would rain...
On The Job
Note from Seraph: I get brief scenes sometimes. They don't really fit anywhere, and while they could possibly turn into plots, sometimes I just like getting them out onto paper, or lj as the case may be.
Next time she was going to ask for more money. She couldn't believe she'd been convinced to come down here, especially on a public holiday. She was meant to be getting a manicure and a massage from a guy named Sven...okay, so possibly not Sven but he probably would've been blonde, although there was something to be said for redheads as well.
She seriously needed to get away from the mansion more, or date. A date would be good, any date would be good. A guy who didn't make her crawl through sewers at 1am in the morning would also be nice.
"Okay, Frank. How injured are you this time?" Laurie asked, looking around at the abandoned subway tunnel.
