Disclaimer: I have not nor will I ever gain anything from my Grimm story. All that belongs to NBC and all cast, producers, writers, etc. I may just be on the right track :). I abso!utely believe Meisner will shake things up!
Chapter 1 Jealousy
Nick POV: "I have to know about Meisner!" What did he have to do with Trubel? Was he part of the resistance? Adalind seemed nervous or maybe embarrassed. "All I know is he got me away from the Royals and out of Europe," she replied chewing on her lip a little afterwards. There was something she wasn't saying.
Adalind POV: What would Nick think if he knew just HOW well Meisner knew her? She had been around a bit, that is true, but this guy delivered Diana. That was pretty up close and personal. Nick had that detective look that read all suspicious. He knew there was more to the story. Ok, if this was going to work, whatever THIS was, she was going to have to be completely honest. "And he helped when Diana decided to come in the middle of nowhere. We were stuck in a cabin with a blizzard happening outside awaiting your mom and BAM, labor. Nick, he delivered Diana. I couldn't have done it without him."
Nick POV: She looked up shyly through her lashes and had that one eyebrow cocked like she does when there was uncertainty. So THAT was how much of a friend Meisner was. Nick had always assumed his mother had delivered Diana. He had seen this guy, fought with him. Meisner was rugged, solid, and he knew how to handle himself. Why was this new revelation making him uncomfortable? Was he slightly angry? "I know you said you trust him, right?" She nodded. "How long was he here? I wonder if we should worry about our location being compromised?"
Adalind POV: Nick seemed ruffled. Maybe that was too honest or maybe he really was just worried about their location. What if he became fed up with her and her sordid past? "Sorry Nick, I never thought I would ever see him again so why mention the details," she stated pathetically. "He called you then left right away. Look, Meisner won't tell anyone where we are.'
Nick POV: She had a lot of faith in this guy and that should have reassured him, so why was he so hot? Something was eating at him. "Just don't let anymore friends in! Ok?"
Adalind POV: With Nick's elevated voice, Kelly started crying. "Really Nick, I didn't know I was a prisoner here." She was no longer worried; she was mad. It had only been 30 minutes since she had put Kelly to bed for the night. Why was Nick so worked up? Nick wore a closed expression and just turned around to go pick up Kelly.
Nick POV: There was fire in her eyes just then, but he was still seeing a little of his own red so he just turned to get Kelly. "Didn't mean to wake him. Sorry,' he mumbled. Why was he apologizing? Waking Kelly was accidental not purposeful.
Adalind POV: "I know. It's just he didn't sleep much today. He probably needs to catch up some. I know I need him to sleep." She sneaked a side glance at Nick and her anger dissolved. Now that was a scene she could have watched all night. There was something so attractive about Nick when he held his son, letting his expression soften, while he was looking down into Kelly's face. She felt a kind of flip flop inside her belly. Was she falling for Nick?
Nick POV: Adalind had laid down when Kelly did. She seemed a bit stand offish and he didn't mend that fence, so she just went to bed. Things were quiet and Nick could think calmly. This unrest was not about Kelly and his protection, although that was never far from his mind. This was about Meisner. Meisner and Adalind. But why? It couldn't have been the intimacy of delivering Diana, could it? There was more sexual history between Renard and Adalind, than her and Meisner. Wait, what was this line of thinking? Then it dawned on him that it was because Meisner was a hero for Adalind. "I couldn't have done it without him," she had said. Nick wanted to be the only hero in Adalind's life. He walked into their room, for that's what it truly was now, his and her bedroom. He told himself he was checking on them, but truth be told he just wanted to look at her. Undeniably beautiful she was, but in sleep, she was angelic. Nick knew much better yet he still felt a need to touch her. His mind flashed back to the night when Juliette wore her body while they made love and his breath quicken. His body tightened with desire. Since when did his feelings for Adalind evolve?
