Ree frowned as she looked over at the man at her side, there was something in his eyes, something she didnt like, and she had a feeling she wouldnt be seeing him in the morning. Licking her lips she moved, dropped a kiss to his lips and smiled, her fingers brushing over the side of his face, "I love you" She whispered softly, then with a breath she slipped from the car.

Joker didn't come for her that morning, or the morning after, or that week. He didn't come for three months as he suffered and survived in Mexico but when he did come he stood at the front door of her house, three months and next door was now a large jungle gym and park. He calmly and dutifully stepped to the front door and gave it three mighty knocks, praying that she would still be there, that she would still be able to look him in the eyes and not tell him to go fuck himself.
He took his hat off and straitened his hair, his image reflecting back to him was crappy. He looked like he had been beaten by a pissed off rhino then as if that wasn't enough decided to kick a bull in the nuts. With a deep breath he closed his eyes and placed the hat back on his head. He didn't know what he could even say to her...if anything.

Ree sighed as she turned away from the dinner she was preparing, her morning swim had been boreing, as was most of her routine now, all she did was eat sleep and excerise, praying that she would hear something, anything from Walter, praying she wouldnt hear he was dead.
He hadnt come to her like he had promised and she hadnt heard anything from him, Tay had wanted her to move back home with him, but she had refused, she couldnt leave, if he came back seh would be there, untill she knewsometing else.
The sound of laughter filled the house and she turned to see her nephew running into the kitchen, promptly hiding behind her legs, with a laugh she looked up to see Tay walking into the kitchen, a knock at the door interupting anything he was about to say.
"Ill get it" She smiled and nodded, turning her gaze to her nephew who was trying to sneak into the fridge, with a laugh she pulled it open and handed him a bar of choacloate, "Dont tell dad" She watchde as he nodded before heading out onto her patio.
"Ree its for you" With furrowed brow she headed towards Tay's voice and her throat seized at the sight in front of her.

He swallowed staring at her, his heart skipped a beat or two before remembering it's job. He grinned awkwardly, "Am I fashionably late?" He raised an eyebrow behind his glasses, his eyes eye were watering behind the lenses and he clenched his jaw to keep from choking up. He couldn't bring himself to move, not yet. He could hear a child laughing in the background and defiantly heard a man talk. He was unsure what to say yet again hopefully his humor was enough to break the ice.

Fashionably late….she rose a brow at the man in front of her, everything about him had changed drastically, he hardly looked like the man she had fallen in lover with. Heaving in a deep breath she inclined her head to the side…what the hell was she meant to say about that….how could she just let her back into her life. Licking her lips she heard the rapid front steps of the child behind her. Bending she bent, wrapping her arms around his little body, her eyes sparkling as she looked at him. Smoothing her fingers through her hair, her gaze shifted back towards Walter.
“A day, or two is fashionably late” She muttered, with a sigh, she dropped a kiss to little J’s head with a deep sigh, she bit the inside of her lip. She realized how out of it she had been the last time he had saw her, and she regretted that so much, regretted allowing herself to get back to that stage once more. Shaking her head she laughed bitterly. “Guess you should come in” She licked her lips, eyes shinning, she itched to touch him, to pull him towards him, but there was a deep part of herself not letting her.

Joker swallowed hard as his heart thumped in his chest. "Ree...I need to tell you something, I am done now. No more of what I used to be, no tags, no government...Free and clear." He said as he stepped in slowly, he still looked like pure crap and didn't add 'Because I'm dead' to the end of the sentence. She moved as I she had healed pretty well but the way she regarded him was terse and painful. He couldn't find it in him to blame her for it, three months without answers can kill someone and he was guessing he all but killed off her feelings for him. 'On the bright side,' he thought to himself, 'She hasn't hit me yet.' The way he felt right now he ventured that she would probably beat the piss out of him with one touch.
"If you want..." He began softly, "I can just go. I came just to make sure you were okay, I needed to see if you were healing up." He took his hat off and wrang it between his hands nervously.

Her heart pounded in her chest at hsi words, she knew, right from the start that starting something with him was a bad idea, that getting involved with someone so involved with the Government would only end in heart ache, but she had fell, and she had fell hard. With slightly furowed brow she turned her gaze back towards him, her eyes sparkling.
With a small nod she dropped Jay down to the floor, before bending down to his level, "Go tell daddy that Aunty Kacey is paying for you guys to eat out with lots of ice creame" With an excited squeal the little boy went running into the house.
Slowly she rose herself into a standing postion once more, her gaze turned towards him. "You knew, all along that you werent comeing back" She muttered "Come in we have a lot to talk about i dont want no bull shit Walter"

Walter took one step in and off to the side. "I was going to come back that morning but I was blind sided...Today is my first day back in the states. I have been in Mexico trying to heal." He looked past her at her brother and nephew, quietly he said. "Ree, I did everything I could to get back, to keep this from happenening... Please ask me anythinnand I promise I wil tell you the truth."

Licking her lips she watched as Jay ran towards his father, some days he reminded her so much of her sister that it took her breath away. With a breath her gaze connected with her him and she nodded her head, silently telling him it was okay.
Finally she turned back towards Walter, smiling over at him, her dark eyes twinkling, "Mexico huh" She questioned with a raised brow, slolwy she walked towards teh kitchen, "Dont forget to bring ice creme back" She stated, laughing as Jay ran from the house.
Once more her gaze turned back towards Walter, "So why come back now?" She questioned, with a sigh she pulled a bottle of beer from the fridge, then another, sliding it over towards him.

Walter looked at the beer and pushed it away slowly. "No thank you." He grabbed a chair and sat down gingerly, his body still sore "I did all I could to get back as fast as I could Ree, I wanted to be there, I wanted it to be over that night and it was over...but I wasn't the winner."

Ree watched him careful, one brow raising at him pushing away the beer, with a small nod she wrapped her hand around it swiftly putting it back in the fridge. With a small nod she let out a breath, shifting so she could rest her elbows on teh counter, dark eyes looking at him.
"You know after my sister i promised myself i would never put myself in the situation where i was sat at home worrying, waiting" She bit the inside of her her lip, "And yet there i found myself, afraid at every phone call, every knock at the door"
Shaking her head she slolwy placed the bottle of beer in front of her, her gaze shifting as she pushed herself away from the counter and out of the french doors, herbody leaning agaisnt the railing, looking out at the veiw.

Joker followed her out out to the balcony and leaned against the wall behind her. He couldn't think of anything to say, he hadn't been able to move let alone send her any messages telling her he was alive. He stepped slowly from the wall and leaned on the railing next to her. "Well as it stands it's over now. I was killed three months ago in the desert on the Mexico and US line. The body was devoured by wild animals and there were no remains to be found save for a torn up uniform stained with blood." He looked down, at where his dog tags used to hang. It felt weird them not being there any more but he knew if he hadn't left them it would have been a lot more suspicious.
"So I'm a civilian now, going to work for Brian and just live whats left of my life."

Ree felt hsi presence at her side and slolwy turned her head so that she could look at him, he was nothing like she remembered, and yet, he was exactly the same. His words made her smile though, he was free, which meant they were.
Letting out a small breath she nodded her head, "So where does that leave us" She questioned with a raised brow, her hands resting the bottle of beer on the balconony in front of her.

"That's on you Ree, I don't exist any more. No identity, no life. The NSA erased me completely. The 'Real' me is dead in a tomb back in arizona and their version of me is coyote droppings in the valley... If you want to give this another chance I'd give it my all, if you don't mind me being a man slut every now and again. I will always come home to you in the morning and despite what I do and how I act you will never see me with my tongue in another woman's mouth." He was being blunt but right now he needed to put everything on the table and let her know. "I am a flirt when I hit the races, when it comes to work I give it my all, and whatever I have left at the end of the day...I'll give to you." He looked at her up and down.

Ree licked her lips as she looked over at him, her dark eyes were locked on his face as he looked at her, when he was finished she slolwy nodded her head.
Could she really do this again, let herself feel for him, put herself in a postion to get hurt. Letting out a breath she pulled herself from the balcony. There was no point telling him they should start fresh, because it just wasnt posisble, you never started fresh with someone you had already been with.
"Never make me worry like that again" She stated softly.

"Well I just came back from the dead, hopped the border, and summoned enough courage to face you again. I think I won't try to put you through anything else, I'm just a mechanic now. I have enough cash to keep myself clean for a while and I'm going to just work with Brian." He smiled lopsided and watched her, "I will do everything in my power to keep you happy, I promise."

Ree smiled, slolwy nodding her head over at him, "Okay" She muttered softly, her gaze shifted away from him, and back over to her veiw, it always amazed her, how breath taking it was. With a smile she turned back towards him.
"Where are you staying, your place kinda no longer there, i have room, if you want us to move back in together" SHe stated, her dark eyes sparkling as she looked at him.

"I was going to hole up by myself for a bit, I think it would be best for now." He didn't want to bring up his late night panic attacks or nightmares, not until he made sure he didn't lash out in his sleep or have the second issue dementia that coupled PTSD. "I have a small apartment I used to stash stuff in, I'll be there for a while. I'd like to try this again, a bit slower and a bit more I'm depth. I'm not a secret agent man any more, just a man." He sniffed, "A man that smells to high hell at the moment."

Ree nodded her head slolwy, secretly she was actually thankful for his words, she needed to know he was going to be there, without anythig getting in the way. "Sounds like a plan" Shestated softly, before laughing at his words.
"Although i have to agree with smelling like hell, i didnt want to say anything" Smiling she draw her lower lip between her teeth as she turned her gaze over towards him, "I missed you" She whispered softly.

"I missed you to..." He had to take a sharp breath and hold it to keep back the tears he knew were going to form behind hos glasses. He adjusted them and looked back out across the sand, "I must look like shit huh?"
