I don't own Lost Girl or the characters. Also don't own the song used in this chapter. It's Hold Onto Me by Mayday Parade and I thought it fit so much that I, of course, had to make our lovely warrior sing it! :D

Appreciative of reviews and feedback :)

Chap. 2

It was around sunset when we left the Dal. Kenzi told me where to drive and we rode in relative silence, with the exception of Kenzi telling me which way to go every so often. We arrived at an enshrouded stretch of dirt road and followed it up to a house surrounded by forest that on the outside looked abandoned. I shut off my beloved Camaro and told Kenzi to stay put, to which she surprisingly agreed.

I slowly made my way to the door and opened it, there was no noise coming from the house as I stepped in. It looked far less abandoned on the inside then it did on the out, with newer looking furnishings and even a TV hanging on the wall. What is this place and who lives here..? It felt slightly homey and yet slightly intimidating as I made my way across the room to the stairs. Suddenly I heard what sounded like a guitar coming from a room upstairs, I slowly made my way up them, pulling my dagger out just in case there was a not-so-friendly up there.

There was a cracked door and inside was a sight I would have never expected to see in hundreds of years, it was a beautiful familiar form, holding an acoustic guitar in her hands sitting on a bed in the room. She didn't look up and I thought she didn't hear me enter or approach when she suddenly started singing in the most heavenly voice I had ever heard.

I know I've got my problems and it starts with me

She saw somethin' inside that I can't see

And late at night yeah, she'll comfort me

Hold onto me, hold onto me

I got a nervous habit and I drink too much

She says she hates her life and wants to change her ways

She wakes in the night and whispers oh so quiet

Hold onto me, hold onto me

Don't you ever leave, don't you ever leave

I know I got my problems and it's probably me

So hold onto me, hold onto me

I stay up too late and it hurts to breathe

Said 'it's four AM girl go back to sleep'

Sometimes at night I can hear her dreams

Come rescue me, come rescue me

Don't you ever leave, don't you ever leave

I know we got our problems and it's probably me

So hold onto me, hold onto me

I'm a drifter's body in an open sea

And I see my reflection starin' right back at me

With no place to go and you're left all alone

There's no place like home

Hold onto me, hold onto me

Just stay with me, just stay with me

I know we got our problems and you'll probably leave

So hold onto me, hold onto me

I can never leave, I will never leave

So hold onto me, hold onto me

She sang with such feeling and raw emotion that tears started to roll down my cheeks and my heart started to pound beneath my breast. I had never heard anything more beautiful in my life and my sniffles must have drawn her attention for on the last few lines she looked directly at me, her eyes filled with the same emotions prevalent in her voice, and kept singing with her gorgeous green eyes piercing into my own brown ones.

When she was finished I couldn't help what I was feeling, I ran to her practically jumping onto her lap, wrapped my arms around her neck and kissed her. It reminded me almost of Brazenwood, expect with the roles reversed and she didn't almost die like I had. I could tell she was shocked by my reaction, but she quickly and vehemently reciprocated the kiss as her hands reached up and cupped my face with her thumbs gently wiping away the tears still flowing from my eyes.

I stopped the kiss and looked at awe at the beautiful woman below me, staring into the gorgeous green eyes I missed more than anything. Leaning in and hugging her I whispered in her ear, "I've missed you… Gods, I've missed you, Tamsin… You have no idea." I held onto her as tight and she slowly wrapped her own arms around my waist. We both held on so tight it was as if we were scared that the other was a dream that would disappear in a puff of smoke if we let go.

She sighed contentedly in my ear and slowly she spoke, "I missed you too Bo. I'm sorry I vanished like I did." Honestly, I didn't care about that anymore, any anger I felt about her disappearing was long gone as soon as I was in the arms of my Valkyrie.

Slowly I loosened my grip but didn't let go, "It's okay Tamsin, as long as you never, ever do that to me again. I was a wreck without you here…" It was true, nothing had felt right since the Valkyrie had vanished and that was over two months ago. "I… I love you Tamsin, I think I always have." I said with more tears running down my face, I looked into her eyes and saw astonishment and also love. It was true, the blonde cared deeply for me and now I could finally see what was there all along; what everyone else could see except me.

Tamsin was in love with me, and I her.


To the guests who found my story the day it was published, you guys got my heart3

In the first chapter I just tried to put some background for the story and where it was in the Lost Girl timeline, I didn't mean for it to seem as though it was moving too fast.

Thanks for reading! :)
