Title: i am here tonight
Rating: PG
Summary: Anna and the baby, after.
Warnings: fire, implied death.
Notes: It really is a work problem.
Fire. Shouts. Gunshots. Delia begging her to take the baby. Running, Chiara sobbing in her arms. The roof collapsing with a roar. Screams- hers, Chiara, those trapped inside, Delia, Delia, Delia...
Anna woke gasping, and thought- no. Not Delia screaming. It was Delia's baby, her wails already devolving into hiccuping sobs.
Anna got up and took the baby in her arms, bouncing her gently. Poor thing: motherless, and fatherless by now. What would happen to her? She was so completely alone in the world.
The baby quieted, staring at her with large brown eyes. Delia's eyes.
Well. Perhaps not completely.
