"Where is she? What happened?" Nicole called as she rushed into the station.
"In here, we don't know we're trying to figure it out." Wynonna answers dejectedly leading her to Waverly. They round the corner to see Waverly sitting in the corner of a cell, head resting on her knees that are drawn up close to her chest. Wynonna explains how Waverly somehow became possessed and pulled a gun on her and Doc and that its a temporary solution until they can get Waverly's latest research from the homestead.
"I don't want her to be alone & I don't trust any of these other arse clowns." Wynonna gives Nicole a nod and leaves for the homestead. Nicole walks up to the bars looking at Waverly as she lifts her head for a brief moment and Nicole gets her first glimpse of the possessed Waverly.
"Waverly." she coos softly.
"Don't!" Waverly growls cutting her off. Nicole moves back to lean against the desk taking a few moments to think.
After a few moments of silence she moves back to the cell hands resting on the bars.
"Waves, it's just me Baby." She says softly just above a whisper. Waverly lifts her head resting her chin on her knees her eyes looking a lighter shade than before.
"I don't want you to see me like whatever this is and I don't want you to get hurt by me or this." Waverly says solemnly.
"I thought by now you would have figured out that no matter what I'm always going to see you as the smart, dorky, adorable, beautiful woman that I love." Nicole says. Waverly gets up and moves over to her cupping her cheek and searching her eyes.
"Just stay away until Wynonna can figure this out." Waverly says running her hand down Nicole's jaw before moving back to the corner of the cell.
"I'm not going to leave you Waves and it's going to take you a lot more than something like this to get rid of me." Nicole says before returning to the desk and sitting down behind it eyes still on Waverly. They sit in silence lost in there own thoughts for a long time, Waverly occasionally glancing over at the Officer.
It feels like they have been waiting for ages and as the time has gone on Nicole has noticed the colouring around Waverly's eyes has continued to fade. Nicole cracks and moves over to one of the other desks pulling out the draw and grabbing a set of keys. Waverly watches as the officer moves about.
"What are you doing?" Waverly asks as Nicole unlocks the cell door. The officer throws the keys on to the desk before closing the cell door behind her. "No stay away!" Waverly exclaims jumping to her feet.
"Whatever this is Waves we're in it together." Nicole says pulling Waverly into a hug and feels her relax into it. After some time Nicole releases Waverly and sits down patting the spot beside her. Waverly lays down beside her resting her head in Nicole's lap as Nicole slowly plays with Waverly's hair. As they wait or Wynonnato return Waverly slowly drifts off to sleep and Nicole reminds herself that next time a suspect is complaining about how uncomfortable the cell is they're not wrong.
