Title:
No Turning Back ------------------------------------------------------------ [Chapter 1] [Chapter 2] [Chapter 3] [Chapter 4] [Chapter 5] [Chapter 6] [Chapter 7 ] --------------------------------------------------------------- Chapter 6 It's been eleven weeks now since that night and I am about to board an airplane for England to sign my final divorce papers and appear with my solicitor for the custody settlement. When I get back Viggo and I plan on telling our friends about our relationship. Then two months after that I have to leave for England again Boromir won't be needed much longer and I don't want to go back to England. I want to stay with Viggo but I guess we will cross that bridge when we come to it. Viggo says we should live in the moment and not worry about that for now. Viggo couldn't come to the airport with me he's working. We said our goodbye's this morning and both of us cried. We looked like a couple of losers sitting in the floor crying on each other's shoulders. God I already miss him. Orli came to see me off he isn't needed until this afternoon. "So you have a safe trip, Beanie." Orli says smiling at me with tears in his eyes. "Thanks take care of Viggo for me." I say softly. "Christ Sean he isn't a dog or a house plant you know." Orli says trying to laugh but his voice is a bit strained. Then he looks at me seriously. "Yeah I will take care of him try and keep him from going too far off the deep end." I smile at him as best I can then I hear the boarding call. "See you in a week and a half." I say shouldering my bag and smiling sadly. Fuck I hate airplanes anything that flies really. This is going to be miserable. Orli throws his arms around me and says, "We will all miss you Beanie." "I'll miss you all too." I say trying not to start crying again and look like a fool. The next week and a half pass so slowly it feels like each day is a month long except for the time I spend on the phone with Viggo each day. That time always passes too quickly. Our phone services are going to love us both come the end of the month. When I arrive at the airport in New Zealand I am greeted by the hobbits and the elf no Viggo. "Peter kept Viggo working late on the Edoras set, he was so pissed off before I left he punched a hole in the makeup trailer wall." Orli whispers to me. "Fuck." I mutter. "He has missed you, I think he has written entire books of poetry since you have been gone lonely, sad, angry, angst ridden poetry and he has painted up a storm makeup nearly killed him three days ago when he came in with very blue fingers." Orli says smiling. The hobbits welcome me home. Elijah practically launches himself into my arms and gives me a huge hug. "Glad your back Beanie man, it's been horrible without you and our King has been intolerable. Now that your back you gotta fix him for us." The boy says and I nearly laugh. "I missed you all too and as far as our King goes I know just how to cheer him up." I say smiling. Oh yes I know exactly how to cheer him up. The way Elijah grins at me I wonder just how much the boy has figured out on his own. He already bet with Orli on our relationship the boy may be young but he is perceptive as hell. On the way back to the set the hobbits and Orli chatter about what has been going on while I was gone. I missed them all so much, hadn't realized that until just now. Once the shoot is over it's going to be very hard to leave this place, to leave these friends. We really have become the fellowship in so many ways. We are a family now a bizarre one at that, but a family that I don't want to give up. "Live in the moment Sean worry about the rest when the time comes." Viggo's voice says in my head. Orli drops off hobbits as we go and when we arrive at my place Orli helps me grab the last few boxes of my things and we head out to my car. Orli and Viggo had already been over to my place packing up my things and moving them to Viggo's the past week. I drive over to Viggo's with Orli following me and when we arrive we start taking the last of my things in. God it's good to be home yes home this is my home now with Viggo. I think it won't matter where I am, as long as Viggo's there it's home. I am jet lagged but too wired to sleep so Orli and I sit on the couch talking until we hear Viggo drive up. I don't think his feet ever touched the ground once. He got out of the car and practically flew in the door and launched himself into my arms. I almost wasn't able to hold us both up. I have never in my life been caught up in a whirlwind of kisses before now. Once our fervor dies down a bit Viggo clasps my head in each hand and says, "I missed you, Sean." "I missed you too, love." I say smiling and he practically beams at me. I see Orli slink out the door and mouth the words, "See you tomorrow." I smile at him and Viggo turns. "Orli!" He calls. "Yeah, Vig?" Orli says halfway out the door. "Thanks, thanks for everything." Viggo says smiling at the young man. "Don't mention it I will try and keep the hobbits away tonight while you two get uh reacquainted." He winks. We both laugh and he waves as he practically skips down the steps to his car.
