Thread: Perception is Reality (ClearSight & SomethingEsoteric)

When she saw Mirandas expression it hit her like a ton of bricks shed made a terrible mistake just now. Not only had she been incredibly inconsiderate to even leave her phone on vibrate and not shut it off but shed answered it in the middle of a session, a session with someone who was just opening up no less! It was such an amateur miscalculation for her position but beyond that it was a terribly rude thing to do in any context! She hadnt even considered it was what Jacquelyn had intended, that Jacquelyn wanted to slip her up, to make sure she did none too well with Miranda even in the implicitly unlikely chance that she had the ability to do any better than any other doctor that may have attempted. Her face dropped and the colour once again drained from it, a look of shame, guilt, remorse and distress all running through her paces Oh goodness, M-Miranda I- before she could sputter out an apology however Miranda cut her off to begin her reprimand, one much deserved she knew. Yes, she was the doctor but she was a human and humans made mistakes hell, she was a mistake and her parents had never been much reluctant to tell her so either. The venom in her voice did infect, did putrefy, Meghan did wince to a grimace. She did have words, more questions, appeals and ways to contend but she couldnt, she couldnt bring herself to justify her blunder or try to recover from it Miranda was hurt and upset and she was worth feeling it, worth acting out in it provided she did not take things too far that was healthy right? Then she became insulting and it was less than welcome, Meghan turned her head slightly, the wound seeming deeper as she reduced her to a play thing, the derision in her voice maybe hurt more than the words Meghan didnt like the idea of being so loathed she could be given that tone with ease. Its not like that, she defended herself meekly. She wasnt a plaything and she wasnt something to be claimed! she was a person and she was worth more than that, more than those words and a bit of fun was becoming four words she absolutely could not stand to reside in her ear again. Sto- she started strong, a true rise, nearly a shout but she stopped herself mid thought. Miranda was jealous, angry, cruel and once again insulting and in Meghans state of guilt for her actions she could only let her be and take each shot. A gasp, high pitched and distressed ripped through her, a sharp pain to be soothed away by the most intimate of gestures. Meghan, at heart was the most hopeless and heartfelt of lovers, a star-crossed soul who searched desperately for a match but found not one thing but heart break most cruel heart break. She searched for the kiss of a lover but only found the hard fuck of a woman with only disregard. Shed projected the warmth of a lover into Jacquelyn but hers was not the kiss of one, it was the kiss of a drunken one night stand free the booze Miranda even if doing it to hurt her she kissed like a lover, she kissed passionately and possessively her tongue dipping passed the meeting of pliable plush flesh and swelling her soul, -so-so what if Meghan turned to butter in her grasp and so what if she did not push her back, so what if she didnt turn her head and chide her so what if when the exchange and it was just that, an exchange, ended did her lips quiver till her fingers found them, eyes like a doe, mind like a fool. Her shock lasted a good while, before her mind rebooted and her forehead wrinkled with confusion and a return of guilt and remorse. So so Miranda thought she could be her plaything too did she? No. No, no, no. Get out. She whispered, staggering up from her seat her notepad falling to the floor with a rustling as she turned and rushed for her shelf. Her shaky hands found the camera between two books and yanked it down, the cord knocking a placeholder over and several books did fall with it as she pried the data stick out and held it close to her chest in a moment of panic Out! Miranda had got what she wanted then, no, Meghan may not be destroyed but clearly she was more than just flustered.
