Trains And Tenderness - Erica Campbell/Steph Farrow/Miriam Brindsley

A/N: Day 4 part 1 for @fluffbruary

Erica Campbell hasn’t been a fan of trains, ever, but when necessity calls for it she can and does use them. This time she needs to see her daughter. So she makes her way to the train station, a small station in the middle of the fields that surround the small village she lives in. She’s surprised to see Miriam and Steph also waiting. Steph, she knows, prefers to stay alone on her farm and she hasn’t seen Miriam since the plane had crashed and killed both their husbands. Steph had been their bond, taking messages back and forth with food deliveries for shops or homes. Then she realises. Steph’s husband had been killed too, away at war. It was more than likely that Steph would need to see someone to get the payment owed to her husband. They are alone on the train carriage and Erica moves to join the other women slowly, smiling a little weakly when Steph greets her, settling into the space the two women make between them with clear meekness. They travel home later, of course. Steph has the money from her husband, Miriam has several books that they have all needed to pick up from the WI headquarters for a while and Erica, finally, has seen her daughters and told them exactly what happened to their father. It’s a quiet trip home but Erica finds she is soothed by Miriam and Steph’s closeness.

the opening scene of the pilot of waterloo road is so great.

"i predict a riot" plays as a kid smashes a school window, girls practice a dance routine, boys handshake, kids on phones, some girls bully another girl, two teachers stand in the midst, one yawning the other smoking, and a student tells them the head master is on the roof. cut to a man throwing boxes of papers onto the students below, ranting and raving about how much he hates the place, one of the teachers from the ground runs up to stop him and the headmaster collapses in hysterics in the teachers arms as the camera pans to the sky to show the title and logo. that's how you do it! can't wait for the new season!

sneer

After Kim Campbell decides they can’t be friends anymore, Steph thinks about her sneer more than anything else.

It’s not that she won’t be able to sit with Kim at lunch anymore. It’s not that they won’t go shopping together on Saturday afternoons or talk about boys in between classes, like they used to. It’s not even that Steph doesn’t know who she’s supposed to be friends with now. It’s just that sneer.

The sneer that says I’m better than you.

The sneer that says you’re not who I thought you were.

It’s the second one that cuts through to Steph the most. When she’s all alone (and trying to forget that means she’s lonely), she’s not sure she is the person she thought she was, either.

But it’s not the right time to think about that.

Kim delivers the clique’s final decision on whether Steph can stay part of them or not. Of course. It was never going to be anybody but Kim. She, with bouncy red hair and strawberry lip balm, has always been in charge of everything, a mean girl before anybody really talked about mean girls. Early in the morning, before the first bell rings, Kim calls Steph over to her locker for a little conference. Normal girl stuff, as far as the eye can see. But Steph’s eyes are trained to see the small things. The Kim things. She puts her hand on Steph’s arm and delivers the awful truth: that even though Sam Doyle is cute and all, Steph going out with him is the last crack in the thin ice she’d been skating on since they got to high school in August. The other cracks were her art classes, the paint she refused to wash off her hands, the way she forgot to wear matching shoes on the first jeans day of the school year, and her new taste in music.

“Like, who is Leonard Cohen, anyway?” Kim asks (and laughs about it, as though anyone is really out there listening to her).

Steph says she’s not sorry for any of it. She is becoming who she is becoming, and if Kim doesn’t want to be her friend because of it, that’s Kim’s choice.

“I just feel sorry for Vicky and Gina,” Steph says. “They don’t even get to make up their own minds about me, do they?”

That’s when Kim stops talking. Words aren’t good enough for her anymore. All she can do is sneer.

And with that one sneer, Steph knows she’s walking away from something bad for good. She knows that years from now, when she looks back on her high school experience, she’ll be happier to have spent her weekends with Sam Doyle, paint-stained palms, and “So Long, Marianne.”

It’s just that she doesn’t know where to sit at lunch anymore.

But she’ll figure it out. She’ll have to. In fact, she looks forward to it.

[purposefully-lost]

The back porch was the only place she'd been able to find that offered her any solace. The music from inside the house still thumped loudly and there were voices all around, yelling or laughing or whispering in corners, but at least it was sort of muffled out here. She could hear the cicadas starting to grow louder as the sky grew darker. If it weren't for the light from the house, it might've been pitch black, and she sort of wished it was. There was a sort of isolation to be found in the dark that was comforting right now. It made her forget she was supposed to be at a party, enjoying herself or whatever it was Steph had dragged her out for.

Chris sat on the steps with her elbows resting on her knees, a still full beer can and her glasses both abandoned beside her. She watched the darkness of the backyard and shivered a little, even though it wasn't that cold. Her cheeks felt sticky with tears when she tried to wipe them away with a wrist. Somewhere out in front of her, a few small points of light blinked in and out, fireflies lingering past their usual time to roam. Like everything else, it made her think of Jack.

They were supposed to go camping. Well-- maybe. If she could get permission from her mom, if he could get away from home for a couple of days, if she passed her driver's test that was coming up in another few weeks. But either way, that'd only been one of their plans. They were also just going to hang out, maybe go to the park, maybe go hiking or swimming or go see a movie when the local theater had discounted showings on Fridays. Jack had hinted once that he could get some weed off his brother and though she'd never smoked- not before tonight- it hadn't seemed like a bad idea. Really, she'd just wanted more time with him.

And now she didn't know where he was.

"Fuck!" It was soft, and solely to herself. Her eyes had welled up again even though she'd told herself she had to stop crying so she wouldn't be all red and snotty when she finally went back inside and found Steph to take her home. Her breath hitched and a small, frustrated whine came from her throat as it all threatened to just rush out again. She'd only barely gotten her breathing under control when she heard the door behind her open, the light bleeding out over her. Turning quickly away from it, she tried again to scrub at her eyes, and then the door shut. Someone was hovering behind her. She chose not to acknowledge them.

"..Christine?" A voice asked after a long moment. One that she knew; it was hard not to know Andrew Campbell's voice, considering the sway he seemed to hold over so many of their peers. "Chris Prescott? Hey.."

His voice was soft and immediately set into that tone that people used to soothe. That sort of hey, it's okay, I don't know whats going on or I don't know you, but I'm trying kind of voice. She hated it. Chris crossed her arms and seemed to draw in on herself, pulling her knees to her chest and hiding in her arms even as Andy seemed to plop down beside her. He started to reach for her shoulder, then pulled his hand back when she cast a wary glance at him. He held his hands up like he was surrendering. "Hey. I- I'm sorry, I didn't mean to.. interrupt." Even as he said it, he didn't go away. He let his hands fall to his lap and frowned, worrying his lip. "Are you okay? Parties not your kind of thing?" He asked, with a small smile, like he was offering her a way out of the awkwardness. She didn't take it. Sniffling, she looked away again, towards the yard and the comforting dark. His smile fell and he went quiet.

They sat there together, sharing some kind of heavy silence, for a few long moments. When she glanced at him again he was chewing at his thumb. Then he looked at her and caught her gaze, dropping his hand. "Hey, Chris.. can I ask you something?"

She didn't answer, so he forged ahead.

"Is this.. about Jonny?"

That got her attention. Grey eyes focused on him as she turned her head to face him, her cheek still resting on her arms. With a little more light cast on her face, those eyes were stormy and absolutely heartbroken, puffy and red around the edges and her cheeks shiny where she'd cried. "What about him?" She asked, wary.

"Nothing, just..." Andy struggled for a moment. He leaned back on a palm and looked at the yard just as she had. He was still wearing his jersey, she realized. "I miss him too."

Chris watched him. It was hard to will herself to speak to him, as popular and supposedly perfect as he was, but for that reason curiosity won out. "I.. didn't really know you were friends with him."

"I've known him for a while," he said, with a barely-there smile, fond and nostalgic. "Des and I've played sports together for a while, and he's Des' little brother, so.." He trailed off and the smile faded as fast. Des was dead. Violently so. He cleared his throat and looked at Chris again. "..Jonny was the best of them, you know. He should've had better than the Bakers."

Was. Her gaze hardened a little, her hands squeezing at her skin. It was a hard question to ask but she wanted to know the answer, even if her voice broke, even if she had to speak so softly that she wasn't sure he'd hear her. "Do you think he's.. gone?"

Andy looked at her. She realized, with the little bit of light filtering from a living room window, that his were wet. "I hope not."

They fell silent. It wasn't too bad, all things considered, sharing the quiet with Andy. After a couple of moments her breath tried to speed up and she shivered again, though before she had to try and stop the tears by herself, Andy scooted closer. He carefully moved her glasses and the can out of the way so he could throw an arm around her shoulders and pull her to his side. Just the warmth and the contact was enough to calm her beyond a few tears for right now.

"Hey," Andy started, still holding her close, "You know how I met him. So how did you?"

Surprising herself, she answered.

-----

They had to have been out there for an hour. At first it'd just been awkwardly traded stories about Jack, and then it'd settled into something more comfortable, and then Andy had popped the tab on that beer and passed it to her after a long pull. They shared it until it was gone and Chris was giggling over a story about the bugs Jack used to dig out of his backyard, about how excited he got over them- especially when he had someone to show them too, like Andy. She wished she'd had the chance to look for bugs with him, but that didn't matter right now. What mattered is that Jack loved bugs and the cicadas were still singing and Andy hadn't really let go of her. His smile was infectious now as it had been on the baseball field that night, if not moreso, and even if she was crying too, it was the first time she'd really smiled since Jack had gone missing.

She was laughing- really laughing- at something he'd said when the back door opened again. Both of them turned to look back, met with the sight of a shocked silent Stephanie. She glanced between them, then grinned. "Oh my god," she said, stunned and a little giggly. "Chris! You didn't tell me... Sorry," she said to Andy, though she was still clearly over the moon about whatever she thought was going on, "But I'm gonna have to steal my friend back for the night. Our ride is going home."

"That's no problem," Andy said, with the same easy smile as always. He looked at Chris, then helped her stand, then picked up her glasses and handed them to her. Chris warmed. He was just being friendly and she knew that, but Stephanie clearly didn't. He looked her over and smiled. "Thanks for the chat, Chris. I.. wait!" His eyes lit up. He glanced at Steph. "Wait just a minute. I'm gonna get you my number," he said to Chris, and then he was darting back inside. Steph looked at Chris with wide eyes and mouthed, Andy Campbell?

Chris frowned at her. "Shut up. It's not like that."

"It certainly looked-"

"He was friends with Jack, too," she clarified. Steph softened at that. That was a fresh wound, and she nodded.

"Come on, then," she said, reaching out to hook her arm through Chris'. "Let's get Andy's number and get out of here."

survivors of lust

Daniel feels Steph’s leg brush up against him in the backseat of his car. It’s not usually where they meet up, but today, it was all they had. Both of their mothers are home, and they have no intention of leaving. So, Daniel’s stuck in the car, like some kid who has to worry about getting caught, about anyone caring what he does. And sure, his mom always would have cared. She would have cared if she’d known about Melissa Kaminski, or Kim Campbell, or Vicky St. John, or anyone. But she didn’t have the time. Daniel’s not really interested in a retrospective lecture. He’ll take the car. An uncomfortable gear shift in all the wrong places is better than his mother’s judgment … anywhere.

Maybe it’s not his mother’s judgment he’s running from. Daniel doesn’t even want to think about the person who would judge him the most. More than that. Sam’s heart would break. He wouldn’t even say anything. Wouldn’t make a sound. He’d just walk away and forget he ever knew Daniel … forget they were ever best friends, if they were ever best friends. Daniel has always worried he’s second to Will. He shakes his head. Now is not the time to feel sorry for himself … not the time to blame Sam’s preferences for Daniel’s damn-near adultery.

Is it still adultery if you’re all sixteen and unmarried? Daniel doesn’t know. All these words he used to think only applied to women … he feels them now, harder than he ever thought possible. When he’s not with Steph (or another girl, though there haven’t been any of those all summer), Daniel spends most of his time thinking about himself as bad. Bad for staying out all night, bad for waking up in different girls’ beds all the time, bad for sneaking out of the house and back in when he has school the next morning.

He looks over at Steph, whose eyes are glassy, likely with the same guilt and regret. Daniel exhales. The two of them are survivors of lust, and they know they should stop. They never should have started, and Daniel is bad for having gone after her. But she was in his head, and she would not come out. Now … she still won’t leave. They know they should stop.

It’s just that they haven’t yet.

Steph’s leg brushes up against Daniel’s again, and he has all the same thoughts in a different order.
