"You might wanna grab another two beers before I get into that."
"Yeah?"
"Yeah. It's also the kind of thing that needs to be a secret."
She pushes up from you and slowly makes her way to the kitchen.
"I'm not a gossip. Is it... bad?"
"I wouldn't say bad." You reply grasping the beer by the neck as she returns. "But if you thought the conversation with Rogers was weird then this is gonna sound completely insane. So I wanna just say... I won't blame you if you don't believe me but just hear me out until the end. Please."
She repositions herself, folding her legs beneath herself as she takes a sip. Hey eyes glimmer as they stay locked on you.
"Of course, I asked after all."
One last swig to loosen you up to the truth.
"Alright... well it started at this creepy house just outside the city..."

The next few minutes are spent in a stream of consciousness ramble but true to her word Allison stays silent. She only speaks up to ask a few clarifying questions or prompt you to talk further about something. You can't help but notice more than once where her expression shifts to something murky. The demon: Mercury, Constantine's card reading, the tulpa, the lady in red. All moments you saw it shift across her face. By the end her drink is drained and yours sits lukewarm on the coffee table.
"...so I talked until she decided to let me go. Then I woke up and saw you. That's it."
"Wow..." She replies breathlessly. "And it only felt like what, an hour to you?"
"Maybe less. Felt like less." You shake your head. "But that's the entire story. I felt like you deserved to hear all of it. Because to be honest, this kind of thing will probably happen again. If we're gonna make this work then you need to know everything."
"Make this work, huh?" She teases. "You sound invested, Officer."
"You're the one who called yourself my girlfriend at the door."
She opens her mouth to counter but freezes. You see the gears turning as she plays the memory back in her head, you watch as a rising pink tinge covers her face. You lay a hand on her knee and squeeze.
"I didn't correct you, you know?"
The pink settles and deepens as she closes her mouth and gives you a cocked smirk.
"Does that mean I can stay the night? It's a bit late and all..."
"Sure, I work tomorrow though."
"Me too." She counters, leaning forward and delivering a soft kiss. "Thank you for being upfront with me. I don't understand your entire situation still, shit I hardly have my head wrapped around aliens, but I know for sure that you make me feel safe."
"High praise considering I feel like I've got glass bones right now."
She rises with you, rubbing your back gently as you lumber to the bedroom.
"Only for now, come on. Let's get ready for bed, did the doctors give you any instructions?"
"Only one thing, I shouldn't shower alone. I could slip and fall... glass bones and all."
"Stupid..." She laughs, following behind as you start your nightly ritual.
