revenge - amanda/emily - i thought it was cute for you to kiss my purple black eye, even though I caught it from you.

revenge, amanda/emily, the beast you've made of me

There's a bruise swelling on Amanda cheek, a cut on her forehead, blood drying on her skin. She can only see through the tiniest slit of her right eye. She knocks on the door and quickly opens her palm to slap it a few times instead, the cuts on her knuckles stinging. Her bones ache and she's sure she'll be covered in purples and blues and blacks tomorrow.

Emily swings open the door, the confusion and annoyance on her face flitting away, replaced by concern and worry. Amanda's not sure if it's for her or for the mission or for Emily herself. "Amanda, what are you doing here? What happened?"

"Just doing your bidding. Like the good old days." She attempts a smirk but it hurts, pain shooting through her jaw.

"C-come in." Emily opens the door wider and steps aside, leaning against it and sighing, shaking her head as though this is typical, as though Amanda is purposely trying to cause problems.

Amanda makes her way into the kitchen, stands against the counter and feels the sharp dig of it into her back, likes the way it hurts. "I took care of it for you. I just wanted you to know."

Recognition lights in Emily's eyes, brightening her entire face the way Amanda loves. Emily tries to hide it, purses her lips, says, "Thank you."

"Anything for you, Em."

Amanda used to wonder if there'd ever be a day she wouldn't mean that, wouldn't willingly give her life for Emily. She could feel it looming on the horizon with Jack and the baby, with the splay of his hands over her belly, his mouth presses too gently on hers. She thought she did, when she came back, thought she could say it and make the venom in her voice imply the opposite. She was wrong. Amanda hates being wrong.

"Let me get you something for," Emily bites her lips, gestures vaguely to Amanda, "that."

She opens her freezer and Amanda follows the line of her spine as she bends over, wants to count the knobs, slot her fingers between them and press and press and press until Emily squirms under the touch. When Emily straightens and shuts the freezer she's brandishing a cold compress. "Here, let me see."

Amanda licks her lip, the coppery taste of blood lingering. Emily reaches out and brushes Amanda's bangs to the side, fingers barely ghosting over the skin underneath. She's close now, so close Amanda can smell her fruity shampoo, the sharp clean of soap, feel the warm of her breath. She tries her best not to shiver. She thinks she's a pretty good actress.

Emily presses the ice pack to her cheek and it spreads over her bruised eye so Amanda closes them, swallowed by darkness, watching the shadows dance over her lids she can't help the twist of her lips. She says, "It's cold."

Emily chuckles lightly and it tickles over Amanda's nose, her mouth, makes her feel stupid but warm. That's how she always feels around Emily. She feels Emily's hair against her ear and she inhales sharply when lips press softly against her temple, lingering too long. She leans back harder against the counter, clutching it tightly and locking her legs, unsteady and unsure.

"You can stay. Sleep in the guest bedroom until you heal. I'll think of something to tell Jack." Emily's lips brush against the curve of her ear.

"R-right."

And then all the air around her is cool and Emily has replaced her hand on the compress with Amanda's, backed away, eyeing her carefully. "There's aspirin in the bathroom."

Amanda nods, knowing her cue to leave, her cue to sleep. She's exhausted, wants to believe Emily could tell, see it through the cuts and the bruises, wants to believe her concern is genuine, real, but she can't make herself. Instead she thinks Emily just wants her out of the way for the night.

Amanda knows Emily too well, has seen the cracks in her story, the wobble of her heels and fidgeting of her hands, has seen how forced her smile when she looks at Amanda. Amanda likes her anyway--loves her anyway. That's the problem.

"Right. Thank you."

Emily's responding, "You're welcome," is cold. But her lips were warm. Amanda will remember that.

This is seriously everything that I love about this ship, thank you so much for writing. Your Amanda POV is so sharp and constantly reassessing, moving, dealing, not dealing ... really stunning. I also love moments like this:

She opens her freezer and Amanda follows the line of her spine as she bends over, wants to count the knobs, slot her fingers between them and press and press and press until Emily squirms under the touch.

where it becomes both so clearly sexual and so clearly possessive and violent at the same time. It's the perfect vibe for them. And the ending lines are also especially killer.
