Here is the Doccubus fic I promised at the end of the Dynamic Duo. This picks up where Dynamic Duo left off, but is entirely from a Lauren POV. As usual I don't own the characters they belong to their respective creators at Showcase and Prodigy.

After the Britney Spears performance Lauren and Dyson proceeded to sing all pop hits from the 90s and some from the 80s. After Trick had regained control of the radio, Dyson had disappeared with some woman and Lauren was lying downstairs on the couch in Trick's office. She was lying there with her eyes closed when she heard footsteps come down the stone stairs. Lauren cracked one of her eyes open and saw Bo walking through the archway, but she stopped as soon as she saw Lauren on the couch saying, "Oh. I didn't know anyone was down here."

Lauren kept her eyes closed, but smiled at her, "It's okay. I was just resting my eyes." She actually had a killer headache and was ready to go home, but she was in no condition to drive. Lauren opened her eyes to see Bo giving her a look that told her that she wasn't buying Lauren's excuse, so she sighed, "Alright I over indulged and I'm starting to pay the price. Dyson ditched me, so I'm just waiting to sober up."

Bo opened her mouth to say something, but then she closed it. Lauren's curiosity piqued at the uncertainty that Bo was showing considering Bo was one to speak whatever was on her mind. Lauren sat up on her elbows and tilted her head to the side inquisitively looking at the succubus. Bo was wearing tight black pants, a low cut shirt that hung loosely at the bottom, and her leather jacket. She was breathtaking especially when she had her hair pinned back like that. Bo was looking around the office trying to look everywhere, but at Lauren. The fact that she was making the succubus uneasy made Lauren chuckle which evolved into a full blown laughter that only worsened her headache. Bo tentatively smiled at her and asked, "What's so funny?"

Lauren tried to get control of her laughter, but was failing because the absurdity of the current situation and the fact that Bo could possibly be attracted to her was a bit comical. Lauren took a deep breath to calm herself then said, "You."

"And why am I funny?" Bo asked as she walked over to lean against the edge of Trick's desk.

Lauren moved into a sitting position which she instantly regretted because her killer headache turned into a soul destroying one that caused her to grimace in pain and groan, "God I am never drinking buckthorn again." She leant forward to prop her elbows on her knees to hold her throbbing head in her hands. Lauren just wanted the world to stop spinning long enough, so she could save some sort of face in front of Bo. Lauren felt Bo sit down in the empty spot next to her and put her hand on her shoulder. Lauren enjoyed the contact for a moment before painfully turning her head to look at Bo through one of her eyes, "I normally handle my alcohol better than this. Also I drank more than I should."

Bo grinned and said, "Well Dyson was giving you a run for your money." Bo's eyes softened with concern, "Listen Kenz is passed out at the bar and I need to get her home. Do you need me to drive you back to the compound?"

Lauren started to shake her head, but a sharp pain hit her, so she stopped. Lauren declined the offer, "I appreciate it Bo, but I think you dropping a drunk me off at the Light compound might be an issue. On many levels."

"And what issues would there be?" Bo asked her which only made Lauren let out a heavy sigh.

Lauren sat back so she could rest her head against the back of the couch. She really had drunk too much. Her secret for drinking Dyson under the table was that she didn't really take half the shots that were poured and sometimes Trick would pour her water instead of liquor. But her emotions were running high tonight and she just didn't control herself. Lauren tiredly looked at Bo and replied, "One: you trespassing on Light Fae property wouldn't go over smoothly and two I-"Lauren paused for a second as she figured out the best way to say what she wanted to say. Not coming up with anything better she continued on and softly stated, "It's complicated."

Bo chuckled and wondered, "What's so complicated about taking a friend who's had too much to drink home?"

Lauren looked away from Bo as her feelings started to rise to the surface. Now was not the time for them to have this conversation. She wasn't sober enough for it and her emotions were all over the place. Lauren needed time to work through her own feelings about Bo before she went ahead and professed them to her. Lauren figured it was better to let Bo drive her to the compound than to have an emotionally charged conversation with the woman. She rolled her eyes and said, "Okay. You can drop me off outside the compound." She quickly added, "But you're not walking me to my door."

Bo immediately countered with, "And how am I to know if you made it into your apartment safely?"

Lauren shrugged and smiled, "You just need to believe that I did."

Bo stubbornly shook her head in disagreement, "No. I'll agree to dropping you off outside the compound only if you agree to call me as you're walking to your apartment. Every step of the way."

"Are you serious?" Lauren laughed. Then she noticed that Bo wasn't laughing and she had an intense look on her face. "Bo you're being ridiculous."

Bo crossed her arms over her chest and defiantly said, "No I'm not Lauren. You're drunk. The compound is huge and you could be attacked by Fae knows what. Who would protect you?"

Lauren stood up quickly and even though the room was spinning she stood fast and angrily said, "I can protect myself. I don't need you to protect me."

Bo stood up and the volume of her voice went up as she shouted, "I'm not trying to protect you Lauren I just-" Bo just stopped and walked away from Lauren to pace the open area of the room.

Lauren's emotions were riding high and she couldn't take another person telling her that they wanted to protect her. Lauren didn't need protection. Yes she was a human living among a highly evolved species that wasn't really fond of the human species, but it wasn't like she was completely defenceless. "What are you trying to do Bo? Besides using the fewest words possible to say that because I'm human I can't do shit to protect myself." Lauren said basically accusing Bo of the same superiority complex that most Fae exhibited.

Bo argued back, "I didn't say that and stop trying to put words in my mouth Lauren. I'm sorry if caring for you makes me want to protect you and make sure that you're safe. " Bo stopped pacing, "I'll just have Trick call you a cab. Then you can be rid of me caring about you."

Bo was headed towards the stairs and Lauren stood there for a second. And before she could stop herself Lauren quietly repeated, "You care about me?"

Bo, still on the defensive, quickly turned around and proclaimed, "Yes the succubus can care about people you know."

Lauren had picked up on the word people. It was a general word and could mean that Bo cared about numerous people. And she did. Lauren knew she definitely cared for everyone in her social circle, but the thing that had stood out was that she hadn't said you. Bo didn't directly say that she cared about Lauren and that caused whatever hope Lauren was feeling at the moment to dissipate leaving behind a severe case of melancholy. Lauren looked down at the floor and agreed with the statement, "You do care about people. You care about a lot of people and that's something that makes you an amazing person." Lauren looked up at Bo taking a deep breath to fight the tears that were threatening to blur her vision, "I understand it Bo. I think I'll take your suggestion and have Trick call me that cab."

Lauren's head throbbed, she was emotionally vulnerable, and she couldn't be in Bo's presence right now. At least not in this state. Lauren started to walk towards the stairs and she had her head down so that her curtain of blonde hair could hide her face from Bo. As she was walking by her, Bo reached out and gently took her hand. Lauren stopped walking. The warm feeling of Bo's hand holding hers was something that made her heart speed up and the world stop. Even for a millisecond. Lauren looked at Bo and Bo gently stated, "Let me take you home."

Lauren couldn't fight her anymore. Her heart wasn't in it and she was too tired. So she nodded and the two of them headed up the stairs to the bar. As soon as they were in the barroom Trick gave them a smile and said, "Lauren I was worried that you were making a mess of my office."

Lauren glanced over to the stool where Bo was trying to get a drunk Kenzi down then back at Trick playfully scolding the older man, "Trick you've got to stop dispensing that buckthorn. It's not meant for consumption by anyone. Fae or human.

Trick just grinned and asked, "Do you need a cab or are you alright to drive?"

Lauren rubbed her temple trying to soothe her throbbing headache, "No Bo is going to give me a ride to the compound."

Laure saw Trick's eyebrow quickly arch up and she knew he was going to ask a question, but it quickly went back down as Bo walked over with Kenzi leaning on her asking Lauren, "You ready?"

Lauren nodded her head, instantly regretting it. Bo and Lauren said goodnight to Trick then left the bar. Once Bo had Kenzi settled in the backseat and she was in the driver seat they were on their way. Lauren leaned her head back against the headrest with her eyes closed meaning only to rest them, but she wound up succumbing to an alcohol induced sleep.

When Lauren woke up and she didn't recognise her surroundings. She knew for certain that she wasn't in her apartment. Where ever she was the building didn't have much in regards to walls and as she looked around the room, dimly lit by what light filtered in through the boarded up windows, there wasn't much for furniture either. There was the comfortable bed that she was laying in, a wardrobe, a dresser, and a full length mirror. Lauren was able to make out the bathroom that was sectioned off from the bedroom by a wall that looked like it could fall down at any second. Lauren scooted over to the side edge of the bed and as soon as she sat up the mother of all headaches hit her like a sledgehammer. Lauren rubbed her temples as she remembered what happened last night. As she recalled her drunken evening with Dyson, including their drunken performance, she whispered, "I'm going to kick his ass when I see him."

Lauren was about to get up, but she spotted a nightstand that had four ibuprofens and a glass of water on it. Lauren quickly thanked whoever before she took the pills and drank the glass of water. As she set the glass down a chill ran through her and it was then that Lauren realised that she was only wearing her bra and panties. Mortified, Lauren got up to look around the room for her clothes. She let out a breath of relief when she found them folded on top of the dresser along with her phone which was resting on top of the pile. Lauren grabbed her phone and brought up the time. She started to panic when she saw it was 10am. Lauren blurted out, "Fuck!" She was late for work and she didn't know where she was. After unlocking her phone and seeing that there were a few missed calls and texts from Dyson and Hale, Lauren quickly got dressed. As she pulled on her jeans she called Dyson. He picked up his phone on the second ring, "Where are you?" He anxiously asked, "I covered you with the Ash and told him you were with me on a case. But I was only given an hour before I have to get you back to the compound, so you have twenty minutes to get there. And if you're asked you were identifying a Fae kill for me."

Lauren was about to answer but Bo came walking through the bathroom and into the room. Lauren stared at her for a moment. Half of it was shock and the other half was due to the fact that the succubus was only wearing a small pair of shorts and a revealing tank top. They stared at each other for a minute, but Dyson yelling in Lauren's ear brought her back to reality. She stammered out, "Y-yeah. Yeah. Twenty minutes Dy. I got it."

Lauren hung up the phone and she didn't know whether to be angry or to be turned on by vision in front of her. Of course she chose angry because that was the safest route. Lauren's eyes widened as she freaked out, "This is not my apartment! You were to take me to the compound, but instead you bring me to a condemned building."

Bo looked around the room and smiled as she admitted, "I guess it could use some work, but I like it." Bo gave a nonchalant shrug, "It's home."

Lauren was baffled by the whole situation, and the only thing she could say was "You live here?"

Bo smiled and nodded, "Yeah I do." Then she explained as to why Lauren wasn't at her apartment, "And the reason why you aren't at your apartment is because you passed out, so I brought you to my place because as you pointed out before we left the Dal, me going onto the compound with a drunk you might not have been a good idea."

"Yes and you bringing me here was such a brilliant idea." Lauren was livid at Bo's carelessness, but then again Bo didn't know she was being carless. Lauren looked around the room. She didn't know what she was looking for, but she just couldn't look at Bo. Lauren's brain couldn't function properly with Bo standing in front of her wearing practically nothing. Then a thought came to her, "Did you um-"She realised there was no safe way to ask this question, "Did you take my clothes off?"

Bo blushed and avoided eye contact. For a quick second all of Lauren's anger disappeared and all she could think of was how cute Bo looked at that moment. Of course the moment was short lived when Kenzi stumbled into the bathroom in a tank style undershirt and her panties groaning, "Hide anything I don't want to see. I've got the mother of all hangovers."

Bo grinned at Lauren and said, "I don't know Kenz I think Lauren might have you beat."

Kenzi looked around the partial wall and looked directly at the doctor as she pointedly said, "Bo tell me you didn't."

Bo looked at Kenzi to defend herself exclaiming, "I didn't!"

Lauren rolled her eyes and bitterly added, "Trust me she didn't."

Kenzi covered her chest with her hand, "Oh thank god." She put her hand on her hip, "Wait. If you didn't then why the hell is she here and in your room?"

Bo shrugged and replied, "She passed out on the way back from the Dal and I let her have my bed while I slept on the world's most uncomfortable couch."

Lauren let out an aggravated groan, "Can you two talk later? I have to get back to the compound before they come looking for me and Dyson gets into trouble."

Bo gave her a sarcastic look and remarked, "It's just work Lauren. I think you'll be okay."

"Bo you know nothing about my life, so you can't just say 'it's just work' or that 'I'll be okay' when you really have no idea." Lauren took a deep breath to centre herself then requested, "Can you just put some clothes on and take me back to compound?"

Bo glared at her and heatedly shot back, "Well if you opened yourself up a bit more to me then maybe I would have an idea, but whatever Lauren." Bo pointed at her dresser "And in order to get dressed I need to get naked so if you want to watch…." As Bo trailed off Lauren just stared at her not really certain how to respond causing Bo to sigh out, "Kenzi can you take Lauren downstairs while I get dressed?"

Lauren heard Kenzi grumble something in Russian, but she couldn't hear her clearly. The young woman pushed her out the bedroom. As soon as they were downstairs Kenzi went into what would be considered the kitchen and asked the doctor, "Coffee?"

Lauren declined to which Kenzi just shrugged at. Lauren should have called Dyson to pick her up, but Bo had ruined her thought process when she traipsed into the room in her barely there sleep attire. After twenty minutes of waiting Bo finally came down the stairs and Lauren wasn't happy about the fact that she had taken so long. Even if Bo looked damn sexy in the leather pants she was wearing. Bo flashed Lauren a smile and asked, "Ready to go?"

Lauren scowled at her as she answered, "Yes I am. I was ready twenty minutes ago."

Bo walked over to grab her keys off the metal shelf that served as the kitchen counter and said, "Well I'm having a bit of a slow start today." She looked at Kenzi, "You coming?"

Kenzi took a sip of her coffee then responded, "Nah. I'm going to stay here and soak away the remaining alcohol in my pores."

Bo chuckled at her friend and said, "Okay. I should be back soon unless something comes up."

"You mean like Dyson?" Kenzi joked, but Lauren could tell she had said that on purpose just to get under her skin.

The room got tense as Kenzi looked at Lauren who was looking at Bo hoping she would just leave the conversation there. Bo shook her head then said, "Come on Lauren let's get you home before your dad the Ash gets on you."

They left the crack shack and the uncomfortable ride to the compound was one of those things that Lauren wished was over as soon as it had began. The only noise was the sound of the running engine. Lauren had worked through some of the trauma from her interesting morning and decided it was time to properly thank Bo. She cleared her throat and said, "Thank you for taking me to your place when I was completely incapacitated."

Bo just glanced at her and responded, "No problem." There was another moment of silence. Lauren figured Bo was still upset about their conversation before they left, and she wasn't up for any further conversation herself. Bo stared ahead as she stated, "I still want to talk to you."

Lauren wanted the following things: a hot shower, enough Advil so she wouldn't feel her headache anymore, and four glasses of water so she could rehydrate. What she didn't want was to hold an emotionally fuelled conversation with Bo about feelings. Her head wasn't in the right place for it. Lauren looked out the window as she said, "You may want to talk Bo, but I don't. Not right now."

"And when is the right time?" Bo asked.

Lauren didn't know. Hell she didn't know how much trouble she would be in once she got onto the compound. Lauren didn't answer the question and just continued to look out the window. When they pulled up to the Light Fae compound Lauren opened the door to get out, but she looked back at Bo and said, "Thanks again for the ride and everything."

Bo gave her a small smile and said, "Not a problem."

Lauren thought that was all she had to say, but she couldn't get out the car. She didn't want to leave Bo. There was so much she wanted to say to her and sure she had no idea how she was going to say it, it still needed to be said. Lauren glanced out the window to the compound then said, "Come by the lab at one. I need to get some samples from you and when we're finished we can talk."

Bo's smiled widen as she told Lauren, "Okay. I'll see you at one."

Feeling good and nervous Lauren got out of the car. As she headed to the gate she stopped to watch Bo drive off. As the guard let her onto the grounds he told her, "The Ash wants you to report to his chamber right away Dr. Lewis."

It was that one order that made Lauren realise that she still had no freedom. Despite how normal a life she wanted to live while being in servitude, it was always short lived. Lauren rubbed her forehead and took a calming breath to soothe her already frayed nerves as she headed to the main building to go to the Ash's chamber.
