Layla had been leaning on the balcony railing somewhat offside in the darkest corner during the encounted of John with Davis. After Davis had turned to her and spoke she had her head inclined, somewhat lying on her shoulders, her legs crossed, and kind of making the impression of a drunk man hanging round some bar at night.
'You shouldn't give up already'. Was that what Davis wanted to tell her? Already? ALREADY?! She'd been suffering and worried about her Johnny for MONTHS, she had visited him every frakking week, had talked to him, trying to make him feel her presence, she had dedicated time into his well-being, pondering over her life, had had sleepless nights due to nightmares followed by her turning nocturnal for weeks and thus not getting any sleep, she'd started to write a diary, and never frakkin' thought of giving up on him. She'd waited freakin' long enough, without any positive progress and ever diminishing hope.
Then, a few weeks ago, he had awakened, apparently having turned into what he used to be, a useless, cheeky macho with absolutely no manners. Layla cared little for him anymore, no matter whether some doctors raised the possibility of him probably regaining his memory again. It'd be never be the same again, and anything else she wouldn't be willing to accept.
With her hands in the pockets she slowly walked into the bedroom again. She did not notice the absurdly beautiful and romantic sunset anymore, either.
John saw Layla leaving the balcony to bedroom, where Mike was. John turned to Davis. "Well, I guess it is the end, Charles." He sighes. "Tell me one thing. How the hell is it possible that I know you, but I do not know her? I mean... I know, I remember I was shooting down Chimmies with you on my wing. But I do not remember her. It's absolutely terrifying." He shook his head, looking at Charles. "Mainly when my heart started loving her again, Charles."

She stared at Havering in misbelief. "Oh trust me, the end has never been closer to me than today." She walked away towards Davis and John, casually replying to Mike's second question while not even turning her face in his direction: "And I've never been away from the frontline, now haven't I?"
Davis saw that Layla left after he tolked to her and he sighted. After he heard the questions that John asked him he answered.
" Well I can't explain it there are things that I can't make a crappy joke about. You remember shooting chimmies with me then having sex with Layla. Well maybe you enjoyed more shooting rice munchers then making love with Layla I don't know crazy stuff."
He smirked and looked at John.
"We live in a crazy insane world that about to end with this Gallic invasion so you dont have time wondering about . Why do I do that ?, Whats the meaning of live ? and all that bloody crap . I will give a call to Sinclair and we 3 go and drink our heads off ,pick up some fights and some girls maybe. Thats how you and most bretonians should live"
He pulled up at looked at the sunset. and asked.
What? Did he hear Admiral? John grinned. He liked Davis' plan. Then, Layla stepped in. Oh god, she heard them talking. John's in trouble. "Oh... you're back already." Layla looked really angry. Damn, she is about to get on his throat. Oh hell no way, nobody will hurt John! Or does he want to repeat the scene in hospital? The only options was to wait.

John had a frightened expression on his face as she approached them. Layla eyed him for a moment and then turned towards Davis. "Admiral, do you think it will be possible for him to re-enlist in active duty again? It seems like the shooting stuff means something to him, unlike intercourse with his wife..." It was blatantly disrespectful of her to speak of someone in the third person although the person in question was next to her and a free individual like all of them. Layla was culminating it all the way up, where would this going to end up?
"That's it, if you continue behaving like this, we can divorce right away. And you move out from this house of course. I know. I was a jerk too. I know I deserve a revenge. Yes, I admit that. It is not MY fault I don't know you!" John just realised he did not speak out her name since he woke up. Damn... that's not good. What the hell is her name? Oh yes, he screwed it up once again. Then, something... strange happened. Tears appeared in his eyes. "I am truly sorry." That is all he had to say at that moment.

Davis stood in that conversation. And he sighted as he saw Layla was only making it worse and now trying to pick up a grudge.
" Alright settle down you two. Layla give the lad a break would you he's still recovering. Whats best for all of us is if you take Havering and let me handle John. And to answer your question I will answer it lather ! Understood"
He started sounding like a commanding officer to Layla. And he looked at John waiting for him to answer his question.
Even though Layla didn't quite like Davis, err, she actually held some serious grudges against him, she now realized that he was still her commanding officer. Although off-duty Davis still had some certain amount of authority Layla respected. Furthermore she now saw she'd become quite bothersome, yet John's weird reaction was still a mirror to her. She took a deep sigh and turned around. "Havering! Let's go outside, I'll show you around the garden." Time for a cooldown she reckoned, the mild and balmy Cambridge mid-summer night would certainly anneal her heated temper.
