R.J. Scott - Retrograde, Flight HA1710 01 Final

Retrograde

(Flight HA1710, 01)
by

R.J. Scott

Co-Pilot Lachlan Donaghue wakes up in hospital, a survivor of the crash of Flight HA1710, with memory loss and the suspicion that he could be at fault for the tragic accident. When everything becomes too much he goes home to hide, back to the small Scottish town he grew up in and to his family home.

Rory Kendrick watches the news, sees every hour of the disaster unfold but never thinks that Lachlan was in the middle of it all. Or that his friend will be forced to come back home to hide and to heal. What Lachlan needs is a friend, not a lover, but sometimes the lines are just too blurred to make any sense.

Excerpt

“What now?” Lachlan asked. “What else can they show?” He’d seen the pictures of what had happened. He didn’t want to look at fire and death and the rain that washed away neither. He wanted the memories back in his head, visceral and real, so he could understand what had happened from his own perspective.

Rory cleared his throat. “There is some cell phone footage, grainy and from a distance, of the plane immediately after the crash. It’s on the BBC news.”

“It won’t show anything new.” Lachlan sighed. “Unless someone recorded the plane slamming into the mountain and the moment people died, then there is nothing that will help.” And yes, he meant to make the statement cold and final, because at the end of the day, that is what had happened.

“Fuck, Lachlan.” Rory seemed lost for words. Then, with a determined move, he stood and walked out of the door, coming back with clean bedding and towels, some sweats, and a tee. “Get a shower. I’ll change the bed for tonight, and you get in the sweats. We’re going for a walk.”

“I don’t need to go for a walk.”

“Get out of the fecking bed.”

“Fuck off, Rory.”

“I will push you out. You want that?”

Lachlan forced back the need to control what he wanted to do, when he wanted to do it. Rory would push him out. Or more likely, given how much Lachlan had been battered around, Rory would assist Lachlan out of bed forcefully in that gentle giant way he had about him. With another curse, Lachlan slid out of bed, catching the cabinet with his knee and sloshing the water over the edge of the glass and onto the wood. He wobbled a little before reaching for the wall to steady himself.

Rory, for all his posturing and bossing him about, was there at his side in an instant, and Lachlan wasn’t ashamed to use him to get to the bathroom.

“You need some help in there?” Rory asked. He was looking right into Lachlan’s eyes, his focus deliberate.

“I’m fine,” Lachlan lied.

Rory nodded, then did something that at first was disconcerting, then just as quickly sent a knife to Lachlan’s gut.

Rory cradled Lachlan’s face and pressed a kiss to his forehead. He whispered just four words. “I was so scared.”

  1. I don’t think I’ve had a true life defining moment as such. But meeting ( on a blind date) my friends brother for drinks resulted in our wedding just 6 months later and 34th wedding anniversary next year. Pretty life changing at least. I’m looking forward to this series!
