Through Smoke

Summary:

In which Goncharov and Katya meet once more; after the clock tower; after the train; and they have only one question for each other.

Notes:

Was browsing through the prompts while waiting to pick up Matthew from LAX practice and I stumbled up “coffee and cigarettes” and immediately thought of Goncharov and a scene that most definitely happened after everything.

(See the end of the work for more notes.)

Work Text:

“Are you happy?”  Katya’s question catches him off guard. His eyes flick up, blinking rapidly as the rim of the cup rests on his lips, the coffee sitting just below the swell of flesh. 

 

And he lets a smile ghost his visage, the mug lowering and resting back on its saucer. He nods his head, makes eye contact with her as she takes a drag of her cigarette, watching her smoke exhale and evaporate into the air. “I am.” He says. “Are you?” He asks, voice low. 

 

She takes a deep inhale, her response coming easy, “I am.” She replies. 

Notes:
