Bo could still taste the sweetness of Lauren's frantic kisses on her lips, could still feel the burning of her sensual touches on her skin.

"Bo... God... Bo, stop. Stop!"

Anything. Bo would have given anything for the beautiful blonde doctor to be lying in bed with her right now, writhing underneath the succubus' body in pleasure while screaming her name over and over again.

"Wha... Why ? Did I hurt you?"

Instead, Bo was lying in her huge bed all alone and could only fantasize about being with Lauren.

"No, you didn't. But I don't think we should do... this."

Bo had already been able to smell the familiar scent of Lauren's arousal, her own excitement going sky high as well. It seemed to her that the doctor's essence still lingered in the air, even after hours.

"Why not? It's not like we both haven't secretly thought about it since you came here, right? I know you want me, and I don't even need my powers to tell."

It had started out innocently enough. Lauren had been doing the dishes and Bo had wanted to take the work out of her hands. The doctor, however, had insisted on making herself useful during her sojourn at the Club House, and so they had finally agreed upon Lauren to wash the dishes and Bo to dry them. The two women had worked together for quite a while, chatting and laughing, acting like good friends and not like the former lovers they actually were, forgetting all the unspoken things between them for a spell.

"Yes, I want you. It's you, who doesn't want me."

But then Bo had gone too far by grabbing Lauren's waist and pulling the sexy woman into her. By now the succubus had no idea why she had done that. It had not been about seduction, Bo thought, but rather living out her playful mood. She had laughed, she recalled. Anyway, once they had realized how close they in fact were, both had held still in the blink of an eye.

The succubus' arch smile had quickly faded away when Lauren's sexual energy had suddenly started to rise sharply. Next thing Bo remembered was that she had pressed Lauren against the kitchen counter, both of them breathing rapidly. Bo's eyes had thrown blue light on the doctor's features right before she had leant in to kiss Lauren passionately.

"Well, my panties tell otherwise. Lauren, I do want you."

Lying in bed now, Bo suppressed the urge to touch herself while thinking of how soft Lauren's lips had felt, how their tongues had played with each other and of the silent whimper Lauren had made when Bo had started to grind her hips against hers rhytmically.

"No, you don't. You want Dyson, or at least to get over him by sleeping around."

What did Lauren know about her feelings for Dyson?

"Leaving aside the fact that I consider the last part as an affront - and now don't make the excuse that it's my nature - I swear that this is not about Dyson. It's about you and me, us. I would never use as a simple consoler... Lauren, you're too important to me."

What did all the others know about them?

"If so, you let go of me now."

Why the hell had everything to revolve around him?

"Lauren... "

Bo had remembered Kenzi, fearing that the girl would walk in any minute and ruin this hot moment.

"Bo, please."

She had been about to pick Lauren up so she could quickly carry her upstairs. "Bo... God... Bo, stop. Stop!"

The succubus sat up and buried her face in her hands with a sigh. Why had everything to be so complicated between Lauren and her, between Dyson and her?

Dyson. Lauren.

Lauren. Dyson.

Why wouldn't Lauren believe her? The doctor meant so much to Bo. She could never use her just for sex. Sex. Lauren. They had never had sex, but had made sweet love. Lauren was the first and only person Bo had ever made love to, already picturing a future with the blonde in her naivety. That's why Bo had felt so betrayed by Lauren when she had told her the truth.

She had been in love with Lauren, and Lauren had broken her heart.

Bo had thought that Dyson had been right when he had adviced her not to trust Lauren, a human and servant of The Ash. Now she knew better, knew that she had often put herself in danger because of Bo. But Dyson had been in love with her and Bo had fallen for him yet again, her heart slowly mending.

He had been an important part of her life, he still was. He had been the first one, who hadn't died from her kiss. He had been the first one, whom she had stroke up a real relationship with. She had loved him a lot, probably always would in some way, and to find out that he would never feel passion for her again had been more than just painful.

It had not smashed her heart, though.

She had come to terms with their break-up and even with Dyson being with Kiara now. She had moved on. He was a close friend now, no more, no less.

What still hurt was this thing between Lauren and her. They weren't friends, they weren't lovers. They helped each other, they cared for each other. Deeply. Lauren. A picket fence. Kids. Bo was still in love with her.

Lauren was beautiful, sexy, intelligent, loving, protective, understanding, witty and so much more. She had those soft brown eyes which seemed to be able to look right into Bo's soul. She had that cute smile that always warmed her heart.

Bo's eyes went wide when she realized that she was not only still in love with Lauren but that she actually loved her.

She loved Lauren, and she wanted to tell her every day and to show her every night. She wanted to be with Lauren.

Relieved and stunned, Bo almost laughed herself to tears, her feelings finally sorted out. The only problem left was to convince Lauren that she was the only one Bo really wanted.
