I had the worst headache when I woke up and I could here someone snoring. I reached under my pillow but my gun was not there. I started to panic before I remembered the night before.

"Oh great," I mumbled to myself not wanting to explain why I had a gun to the boys. I sat up in the bed and looked around. I could see Murphy laying on the couch snoring and Conner on the floor in front of him. I felt myself smile, I haven't woken up to anyone in the same room with me for many years and it was somewhat comforting.

I got up to get something for my headache and some water. I quietly walked around so I wouldn't wake up the boys. I really wanted a shower because I could smell some of the vomit still and I didn't need to be scaring the boys off by smelling like that.

I laid some clothes out and looked at the clock it only said a little after seven in the morning. As I headed to the shower I prayed that they wouldn't wake up or they would get a surprise show of my ass taking a shower. I hated that there was no door I had to get on buying a curtain to go over where the door should be. No one wants to be bare ass naked in full view if someone walks in their home.

I quickly turned on the water and jump in facing the boys so I can see if they wake up. I take the quickest shower I have ever taken. My record was just about 5 minutes. I hurry and dry off putting my clothes on and fixing my hair.

I find my knife and gun on the table and I pull my boots on putting my knife in. That's when I start to hear the boys moving around. "Jesus Murph you snore like a bear," Conner punches him. "Lords name Conner! And ye just mad I got the couch," he punches him back. I can't help but let out a giggle and they both turn and look at me.

"You two just woke up and are already at it, I can tell you're brothers," I laugh at them. "Good morning lass, looks like ye been up awhile," Murphy says. "Yeah I smelt nasty I needed to clean up, by the way thanks for getting me home boys," I tell them. "No problem lass it was nothing," Conner replies. "Well I'm needing to eat it's been awhile are you guys hungry we can find somewhere if you want?" I asked hopefully.

"Of course lass were always hungry and why didn't you say anything last night we would have told Doc to make something." Conner adds. "No big deal," I tell him as I put my holster on and put my gun inside throwing my jacket over it. I could feel the boys staring at me and I just ignore them.

"We ready to go?" I ask trying to avoid their looks. "Umm lass we can protect ye, ye don't need no gun," Murphy eyes my jacket. "I feel safer with it but thanks," I said before heading to the door. I could hear them following behind me out the door. I stopped and locked up the door and caught up to the boys waiting for me at the stairs. I felt happy that they didn't even head to the elevator this time but just knew to take the stairs with me.

They lead me to a small diner not to far from the house. "We come here quite a bit," Murphy tells me. "Yeah they don't even give us menus anymore," Conner continues.

The waitress takes our orders and I just order a garden omelet and the boys look at me funny. "What?" I ask. "Lass don't tell me you don't eat meat," Murphy asks and I see Conner cringe in the booth beside me. "No I just don't want meat right now, don't worry guys I love meat," I tell them. "Thank goodness," they say.

We just make small talk tell the food comes and I can feel Conner's hand resting on my upper thigh and Murphy's foot rest near mine under the table.

Once the food comes and the waitress leaves I notice the boys looking at each other and doing their telepathic talking. I already know what is coming so I start eating my omelet hoping to ignore them but I don't get so lucky. "So lass we have to ask why do ya have a gun?" Conner whispers to me. I sigh and lean back in the booth. Looking from one then to the other I say, "I feel safer this way like I said back at my place." "We understand that lass but it's just we've never seen a girl packing a gun very often."

"Well my dad taught me to protect myself, there are a lot of bad people out there and I need to be prepared," I finish. "Have you ever had to use it," they ask together worried and I take a deep breath. "I know how to use it boys I won't be shooting myself on accident I promise."

They seem to understand the anger seeping in my voice and drop it. We all finish eating with only a little bit of small talk. When were done we head back to our building. Once we get up to our floor they follow me into my apartment without asking. I just turn around and smile happy they decided to stay with me.

"You going to get a job here lass?" Conner asks me. "Yeah I think Ryan knows a guy that needs some help at his shop, told me to call him when I'm all settled in and ready," I answer sitting down between them on the couch. "That's nice of Ryan to help ye out," Murphy tells me as he puts his hand on my leg. I look down at it and look back at him then Conner does the same to my other leg and I look at him. "Umm not to be weird but I've never been touched so much in my life before you two, but I enjoy it," I say embarrassed looking at the TV in front of me even though it was still off. "What ye mean lass it's just friendly gestures no one has done that before, not even your boyfriends?" Murphy asks and I glance at him, he looks surprised and so does Conner when I peek at him.

"Well I actually never had the chance to have any kind of relationships at all I was to busy with training and school and working for my dad," I reply without thinking what I said. "What kind of training did ye do?" Conner asks. "And how can such a beautiful girl like ye never had attention? Murphy finishes.

"Does anyone want to watch TV?" I say as I grab the remote and go to turn it on trying my best to distract them. I feel Murphy grab the remote from my hand and I look at him with a groan. "Fine, my dad trained me with guns and fighting. Like I said before it was to help me be safe. Also just never had time at all for boys and my family never was very loving my dad wasn't the type to show affection and my brother took after him. My mom and grandparents were the only one who showed me affection and that stopped when I lost them."

I pushed off the couch and went over to the kitchen to get away and grab a glass of water. They both get up and come over to me. Murphy pulls me into a hug and I lean into him. "I could get use to this," I tell them and I feel Conner pull me into him next. "Sorry we pushed the questions lass." I smile up at him and hug him back.

"Its okay you guys were just curious," I tell them. I pull away and see them smiling down at me. "So who wants to watch some TV?" I ask them heading back to the couch.

We watch TV and just relax the rest the afternoon and the boys head home to eat and go to sleep because they had to get up early for work the next day. The offered to make me dinner but I tell them I'll be okay, they give me questionable looks but I just tell them I'll see them later and shut and lock the door.

When bed time rolls around for me I feel myself get lonely I was starting to get use to them around me. I tell myself that I shouldn't get attached because everyone I care for eventually leaves me. It takes me awhile to fall asleep but it finally comes and surrounds me into darkness.
