they’re laying on the couch, the sound of the television is on in the background, but in reality, the duo are mostly sitting in silence, just enjoying each other’s company. juliette had just fixed them a big lunch of pot roast and vegetables, and they’re both in a little bit of a food coma at current times. shifting slightly, juliette reaches onto the coffee table for a package of cigarettes, pulling one of the tobacco sticks and sparking it up with her trusty bic lighter.
she’s been in her own head for far too long, and that’s not a good thing for anyone involved, clearing her throat after the first puff of the cigarette, she looks over to vincent. “vin….” she starts, waiting until he perks up enough to show that she has his full attention. when he glances over towards her direction, she continues to speak.
“i need you to promise me something.”
there is an obvious look of confusion etched across vincent’s features, but he doesn’t strike back just yet, allowing her to continue in the time and space she sees fit. the brunette takes a short breath, calming her nerves before admitting something that has been on her mind for what she would only believe is far too long to have been kept to herself.
“when we find out who hurt maggie, i want you to help me.” there’s a kinked brow, and he appears to be curious as to what she’s asking him to do in this situation. “I….” she starts, gathering up the courage to admit something for the first time, maybe even to herself. “i want you to help me kill the person.” her voice is soft, like someone else is listening in on the conversation and could hear her, but gathering strength, she continues.
“i don’t know if i could do it on my own…..but justice needs to be served, somehow, someway…i just….i can’t live in a world knowing the man who hurt my sister is just alive out there somewhere. so…would you be so kind as to assist me? i know it’s not like…an everyday ask, but i’m desperate at this point vincent.” she’s turned to face him at this point, the pleading in her voice obvious enough in this moment of time as she glances towards @deigrxtia.
