Mellie Grant → Scandal, 3x01: It’s Handled
I am a rose dying on the vine here.
✦ ⋆ 𖤓 ⋆ ✦ 𝐁𝐋𝐎𝐎𝐃 𝐎𝐍 𝐘𝐎𝐔𝐑 𝐒𝐋𝐄𝐄𝐕𝐄 ··· a collection of injuries tended in silence, pain worn like armour, the intimacy of being seen at your worst. genre: hurt and comfort, angst, romance, drama.
• You're bleeding through your shirt. Don't tell me you're fine. • How long have you been walking around like this? • I'm not going to hurt you. I just need to see how bad it is. • You should have told me the moment it happened. • Hold still. I mean it. Hold still. • This is going to sting. Bite down on something if you need to. • You've been hiding this for days, haven't you. • Who did this to you? I need you to tell me who did this. • Stop being brave for five minutes and let me help you. • I've seen worse. I've also seen men die from worse, so let me look at it. • I found the bandages in the trash. You want to explain that? • Don't you dare apologize for bleeding on me. • Your hands are cold. That's not a good sign. • I'm not angry. I'm terrified. There's a difference. • Come into the light. Let me see your face. • You should have stitches. I know you won't go. So sit down and let me do what I can. • You're white as a sheet and still trying to stand up straight. • I could hear you in the night. I didn't say anything. I'm saying something now. • Don't look at it if it makes it worse. Just look at me. • It's not weak to let someone see you hurt. • You came to me. Of all the places you could have gone, you came here. • Lay back. You're not getting up until the color comes back to your face. • I'm not going to ask what happened. Not yet. First let me fix what I can. • You've been holding your left side since you walked in. Think I didn't notice? • This is going to leave a mark. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. • I've patched up a lot of people in my time. None of them scared me like you do right now. • You could have died out there. You could have died and I would have been the last person to know. • Sleep. I'll be right here when you wake up. I'm not going anywhere. • You're allowed to make a sound. Nobody's watching. • I need you to stay awake for me. Just a little longer. Talk to me. • You're lucky the cut wasn't deeper. • Stop apologizing for needing help. Stop it right now. • I've seen what it looks like when someone's used to this. That's what scares me most about you. • Tell me your name. Tell me what day it is. Stay with me. • You're going to be alright. I promise you. • You went back out there after this? With this? • Nobody takes care of you, do they? That ends tonight. • I've been gentle with you. I need you to be honest with me in return. • You're safe now. You're here, you're safe, and I've got you. Just breathe.
Scandal Character Tropes: Mellie Grant (x)
get to know me meme: 1/10 female characters - Melody “Mellie” Grant, Scandal.
I would still have my dignity if it wasn’t for you. I would still have my career if it wasn’t for you. Those jurors would still be alive if it wasn’t for you. I would have gotten to see Jerry attend his senior prom if it wasn’t for you. I wouldn’t have had to bury my baby if it wasn’t for you! I wouldn’t have even had kids. I wouldn’t have married you. I wouldn’t have forced myself to stomach you and your disgusting father lying on top of me. I would have had something, been something, done something. I wouldn’t have wasted making you feel okay about your pathetic mediocrity, petting you and applauding you. My life would have meant something if it wasn’t for you! Goodbye, Fitz.
@foxtaeil
but isn’t that like all male politicians? at least the vast majority, he has noticed. he believes in her though, because she is strong and incredibly capable of handling what others throw at her. from reporter claims to fellow leaders, she handles it all with grace and poise. there isn’t a doubt in negan’s mind that she will be able to handle tomorrow like she is able to handle everything else presidential life throws at her.
❝ just another in a long line, ms. grant. ❞ negan takes a seat on the other end of the sofa, elbows resting on his knees. ❝ what are the main talking points for tomorrow? maybe i can help, conjure up the most disgusting, condescending comments for you to practice your response. ❞ his words are followed by a playful grin.
the ghost of a smile creeps up on her as she glances up to share a knowing look with him. a long line indeed. far and few between are the men in positions of power that believe she is truly fit for the job, and while she is well - equipped to handle each and every one of them, it's exhausting that she has to in the first place.
she flips through her notes with her free hand, scoffing in amusement at his suggestion of practicing responses to the unhinged comments certain to come her way. " let's see ... " she starts with a sip of wine. " well, to start, the united states is not interested in financing a man's vanity project disguised as foreign policy. that humanitarian aid is not a bargaining chip to be waved around until a room full of men feel important. and if he intends to speak to me as though i'm some decorative interruption to his real negotiations, we're both going to leave here sorely disappointed. "
exhaling as she finishes, her gaze flickers back up to meet his. " too much? "
it’s almost time for my annual scandal rewatch / crashout let’s go

feel free, as if he would dare. his head shakes with a smile, feet carrying him towards the well stocked bar. generally, negan tries to remain entirely professional because threats are always around the corner, and he needs to be prepared. that includes staying away from the alcohol. however, that doesn’t mean she can’t enjoy a glass or two. he crouches down to view the many options, and pulls a bottle from the shelf, standing upright to display the expensive imported red wine.
❝ your favorite. ❞ he comments, pulling a glass from the rack. ❝ now i know you never say no to a glass of wine. ❞ in a display of strength he pulls the cork from the bottle, pouring her a generous amount. ❝ after the hectic airport visits, i suggest you unwind with it, ms. grant. ❞
there is an upward twitch of her lips as he politely refuses the offer. she knew he would. kicking her heels off, the president claims a spot on the sofa with a binder in her hand that has everything she'll need to prepare herself for tomorrow. tucking her legs comfortably beneath her, she turns her head just in time to spot him selecting a bottle from the shelf.
" i would unwind a lot easier if i wasn't well aware our gracious, misogynistic pig of a host was going to speak to me like the maid for three long hours tomorrow. " she flips open her binder and takes the wine from him without a fight.

❝ they will go and get you anything you want. ❞ because in a different country, she is not leaving this penthouse suite until the next morning when her meetings begin. anything she wants will be brought to her by her staff, while the other agents are stationed at multiple points outside the suite. he on the other hand stays in here, with her. ❝ i know, feels a lot like prison. but at least this prison has a large jacuzzi bathtub for you to enjoy. ❞
it's a necessary evil, she knows. still, she can't help the sigh that passes through painted lips as she peeks out at the city view through the curtains. " i understand the threat matrix. i understand the risk. and i understand this is the job i asked for. so i will stay in the gilded cage. " she steps away from the window, glancing in the direction of the jacuzzi and waving her hand dismissively. " feel free. we're both boarded up in here. one of us ought to enjoy it. "

well aren’t they just in a shitty fucking situation? heading back to the sanctuary after a rather unsuccessful supply run, and the mother fucking skies opened up and had them soaked in seconds! the first bout of luck on this trip was finding that old hunters cabin. maybe it’s not in the greatest shape, but it’s dry and that’s about all they can ask for right now. with the room cleared, negan goes to a nearby shelf and pushes it across the floor to barricade the door. a little extra security for them.
now his attention can focus on her. crouching down by the fireplace, those pants hugging all the right places. his wandering eye is shameless, grin spreading across his features. ❝ i love me a cabin with a view. ❞ and mellie grant is that view. of course she is, she always is. ❝ now i don’t know about you, but i just don’t think it is a good idea for us to stay in these soaking wet clothes! i think it makes perfect sense to strip down and let the fire dry them. ladies first. ❞
she doesn't have to turn around to know what he's talking about. she can feel his gaze burning a hole through her rain - soaked clothing as she pokes at the fireplace until she can get it to catch properly. once her mission is complete, as she stands up and turns back to face him, she remains quiet for a moment. just for a moment, she lets him think he's won something.
then, slowly, she lifts a brow. " ladies first? " her tone is dry as the kindling. " i've negotiated with terrorists, dictators, and men who thought a flashy grin counted as leverage. you're going to have to do better than that. "
" right there. " mellie is the first to spot the secluded cabin nestled in the woods. the rain is coming down in sheets, cold and punishing, chilling her to the bone. they can't make it all the way back in this mess, and they both know it. they reach the front door as lightning streaks across the sky, and she's got her gun at the ready as they pile in through the front door. once they're certain it's clear, she sighs and lowers her weapon. it's one room and half rotted, but at least there's a fireplace.
" storm'll pass by morning. if the roof holds. " the rain hammers down as though it can hear her. crouching by the stove, the ex - president strikes a match. it takes three tries before the flame catches, small but defiant.
