Roll Back 88

Weekly Challenge #26? - Eighteen Month Lease

Title: Eighteen Month Lease
Author: Nina/technicolornina
Pairing/Characters: Roger/Mimi, Roger, Collins, past Collins/Angel, Benny/Alison, Mark, Mark/Alison, Mr. Grey (whom I took the liberty of naming "Alexander")
Word Count: A whoppin' 10,348! What got into me this week?
Rating: Hard R or soft NC-17
Genre: Romance/General/Angst
Summary: Alison comes to collect the rent, and takes something else with her during the eighteen months that even Benny can't take away.
Disclaimer: Not mine. If it were, I'd not be sitting on the patio stealing somebody else's wireless and being all boho, because I'd be able to afford my *own* wireless.
Spoilers: Post-RENT, starting in January and continuing onward.
Warnings: THIS IS AN EXTREMELY MATURE STORY DEALING WITH ABUSE. Other warnings: Main character death (not Roger), adultery, a couple of sex scenes that are actually almost graphic enough to be called that(!), a bit of language, rare-pair, naked!Mark. I *think* that's it. This isn't a story for the faint of heart, though I promise it's not darkfic.
Notes: While the challenge said "based around" the song "Crush" by the Dave Matthews Band, this fic is more "inspired by" it. Why? Because as I read the lyrics, this bunny bit me in the ass as hard as it could and wouldn't let go, and demanded I write a rare-pair showing what Alison might really be like. Also, I'd like to add that there are three quotes in here: Les Miserables, Brokeback Mountain, and RENT itself. There may be more that I wasn't aware I was putting in. Catch all three and say so in the comments, you got a fic comin' to ya. Pairing of your choice. Why? For being freakin' amazing, that's why.
Special Thanks/Dedications: I don't remember who wrote this challenge, but it is the longest oneshot (by more than 6,000 words, if I remember right) that I've written in almost six years of writing across at least eight different fandoms, and so this one's for you.
