Title: Don't Ask How
Characters/Pairings: Barret, Marlene, Jessie
Rating: G
Team: SOLDIER
Word Count: 100
Barret paced back and forth, head aching, eyes sandy, Marlene howling miserably into his shoulder. Doctors were rare below-Plate, and those that could be found were either quacks or charged exorbitant rates. Tomorrow, Barret would have to swallow his pride and go topside to find someone who could treat his baby girl's ear infection.
Marlene whimpered and turned her head, burying her nose in his whiskers. "I know, darlin'," he murmured. "I'm sorry."
The door creaked; Barret glanced up. Jessie, looking as tired as he felt, grinned and held up a small bottle. "Told you I could convince him, boss."
