TWs: Mentions of alcoholism and child abuse. Drinking, a drunk character, and a hangover *** Smothering a sigh, George dragged his eyes up from his textbook. "You do know the world doesn't revolve around you, don't you?" Lockwood's gaze snapped over to his friend. "Of course I do. What's that supposed to mean?" "That her flinching might have nothing to do with you. Could be a learned reaction." "Yeah, but from who?" George shrugged. "We know she doesn't have the greatest family life. Could easily be her parents, or even her older sisters." An image of two small cigarette burns flashed in Lockwood's mind's eye. "We talked about it once. I asked her if they hurt her often. She said it only happened one time." "Her definition of 'hurt' might be a bit different than ours."...George was right — the bar was on the ground *** She tries to ignore them, but Lucy Carlyle has more learned reactions than she'd like to admit. *Very loosely a follow-up to my fic "Cause I Know You" but not depedent on it.
