“I have to go,” he repeated softly. He squeezed her hand. “Fiona, I cannot say enough to thank you.” 

She stared at him for a moment, her soft bottom lip thrust out, eyes glistening. Then she pulled loose, and twisting off her engagement ring, put it into his hand.

“It’s a wee stone, but it’s a real diamond,” she said. “It’ll maybe help.” 

“I can’t take this!” He reached to give it back, but she took a step backward, and put her hands behind her back. 

“Dinna worry, it’s insured,” she said. “Ernie’s a great one for the insurance.” She tried to smile at him, though the tears were running down her face now. “So am I.” 

There was nothing more to say. He put the ring in the side pocket of his coat, and glanced at the great cleft stone, its black sides starting to glimmer as bits of mica and threads of quartz picked up the dawning light. He could hear the hum, still, though now it felt more like the pulsing of his blood; something inside him. 

No words, and no need. He touched her face once lightly in farewell, and walked toward the stone, staggering slightly. He stepped into the cleft. 

Fiona heard nothing, but the still, clear air of Midsummer’s Day shimmered with an echoed name. 

She waited for a long time, until the sun rested on top of the stone. 

“Slan leat, a charaid chòir,” she said, softly. “Luck to you, dear friend.” She went slowly down the hill, and didn’t look back.

Fiona: “You mean when she went back in time. To find Jamie Fraser.”

Roger: ??!?!?????!?!?!???

Bree: Did Roger just tell me he loved me for the first time?

Fiona: Yeah.

Bree: And did I do finger guns back?

Fiona: Yeah, you did.

Finally some “writing” time...? 😝

Since I moved to a house that is 2 hours away from my work, my life has consisted of commuting, working, sleeping - on repeat. I really haven’t had the time to read fics, much less, update the ones I’ve been writing. 

But today, I got a little break and I’ll be going home a little late than usual. I’m a coffee shop right now, a black coffee (with 3 sugars, I only had 2 hours of sleep last night), my three notebooks, a laptop in front of me - and I think I shall use these few hours just writing and updating some fics. 

Can’t decide if I should update To Begin Again (Jamie passes through the stones on Beltane to 1968) or Arranged (Modern AU. Set in 2018. Where Claire and Jamie are arranged to be married)...What do you guys think? Any requests on what to write first? 😁

Excited for some personal time for myself! Woof!
