Friday: January/30/09 - Phone call: Starbuck/Ana Ana: *calls Ava's cell* Starbuck: *answers call, but doesn't respond for a few seconds as he rushes into the bathroom* *softly* Hello? Ana: *warily* Who is this? Starbuck: *still whispering as he shuts the door* It's Starbuck. Ana: Why are you answering my sister's phone? Starbuck: Because she's sleeping. Ana: *pause, then amused* Oh my God, she finally got you to fuck her. *laughs* Starbuck: *a little louder and rushed* What? No! *forcing himself to be quiet again* No, it's not like that. I healed her, and then she asked if I'd stay until she fell asleep.. she's upset. Ana: *confused* Why did you heal her? What happened? Starbuck: *pauses* You don't know? Ana: If I'm asking, it's because I don't know what's going on. Starbuck: *further hesitation* Then maybe she doesn't want you to know... Ana: That after you finally fucked her, she realized it wasn't worth the work? Starbuck: *genuinely annoyed* Shut up, Ana. Ana: Either tell me what happened or I'm going to keep assuming that's what it was. Starbuck: *wrestles with it for a second* She… was in a crash. Wednesday. Ana: *suddenly scared* What? How? Starbuck: She bumped into Charlie in Boston and got in an argument with him. She drove when she shouldn't have, because she was upset. Ana: He was in Boston? Dammit. *shaky* Is she alright? Where is she? Starbuck: She's sleeping here at Godric's place. She's okay. Had some fractured ribs that I fixed. Ana: Why did no one think to tell me about this? Starbuck: I just found out a few hours ago, so don't blame me. Ana: Well, Ric obviously knew and didn't say shit to me. Starbuck: Sorry. Ana: *sound of rustling* I'm going over there. Starbuck: It's not dark yet, Ana.. but I can wait here with her until it is. Ana: *frustratedI'll find a fucking way to get there. Starbuck: Ana, she's fine. She's not in pain, and she's sleeping.. finally. Just wait a bit. Ana: *upset* I don't want to wait! I need to be there with her! Starbuck: *trying to be calm himself* Just stay calm, Ana. There's no emergency. Ana: She was in a fucking car accident! Starbuck: I know, but she's fine. Just some fractured ribs.. few cuts and bruises. Ana: *goes quiet, trying to keep it together* Starbuck: I'm looking after her right now. She needs sleep. Ana: *quietly, shaky* I'm still worried. Starbuck: I know you are. I promise she's fine and can wait a bit longer for you to get here safely. She wouldn't want you putting yourself in danger to visit her. Ana: Fine. Starbuck: I'm gonna go back in there with her, okay? Ana: Yeah, ok. Starbuck: I'll see you once it's dark. Ana: Ok. *hesitates* Thank you for healing her. And being there. Starbuck: Anytime. Later, Ana. Ana: *hangs up*
