so sorry about the super long wait, my internet crashed and I was in the makings of a really big chapter but decided it was going to take too much time to get it to you guys so i'll break it down into a few. Thanls for being patient.
Trick was standing behind the bar with a tray full of freshly made bacon, eggs, toast and coffee's, it was the second time that day he had prepared the meals, although this time he added coffee as per Kenzi's request. She had come flying up from the room talking a million miles an hour, something about tripping over, food on the floor, Bo, Tamsin and Coffee it took him a few moments to decipher but eventually he figured it out. Turning towards the hallway to that led down to the back room, he was just about to take the food down when Bo and Tamsin surfaced. Due to the untimely interruption and hurry along this morning, they hadn't gotten the chance to talk about what last night or ealier on meant for the two, however both agreed it would be better to keep things on the down low for a bit, not wanting to upset Dyson or complicate things unessessarily. Bo had a plate in each hand pilled with the reminants of whatever food they had managed to salvage off the floor.
"Morning Trick, thought we'd clean up the disaster zone after hurricane Kenzi showed up this morning." Bo teased sticking her tongue out at her bestie before disappearing to place the dishes into the kitchen. Trick gave a knowing smile while Kenzi pretended to act hurt by the dig "Excuse me for trying to be a nice friend." She called out after her. Tamsin sat on a stool two down from Kenzi and looked around, noticing Dyson was clearly missing from the scene she let out a small sigh of relief happy to not have to deal with the territorial wolf just yet. Her relaxed state was short lived as she saw the raven haired girl from the corner of her eye, she had a cheesy grin matched with an inqisitive stare and directed it straight at the Valkyrie. That girl will be the death of me, she thought as Trick handed her a cup of coffee and a plate of food, placing a second cup and plate in the space next to her and Kenzi for his grandaughter. She nodded at him in appreciation, before breathing in the delicious aroma of her coffee, the freshly ground beans igniting her senses. Coffee and greasy food were her next favourite things after a good strong drink, having a similar effect as alcohol being that it held a certain warmth and comfort that could make her forget for just a moment, how bitterly empty her life often was. That was until recently, there was now a new thing that allowed her to feel whole, warm and secure something she never expected, someone she never expected... she was thrown from her thoughts and smiled genuinely as she saw Bo reappear from the kitchen, Bo returned the smile twice fold before eagerly eyeing the coffee awaiting her, thanks to Kenzi's cop-block she still hadn't managed to get an energy top up and hoped it would give her a much needed boost, but before she could sit she spotted Dyson appear from the bathroom. His nostrils flared and his jaw clenched, an obvious look of discomfort on his face, balling his fists he stormed over to where the two women sat, ignoring Tamsin and going straight to Bo, "We need to talk, now." He demanded grabbing Bo by the arm and leading her to the far corner of the dal.
What the fuck is his problem?, Tamsin thought as she fought the urge to jump in figuring Bo could handle herself, especially when it came to Dyson. It was one of the things Bo appreciated about her, for the most part she had always trusted the brunette was more than capable of fighting her own battles. So she remained seated but watched protectively from afar. Mind you if he touched her like that again she could gaurantee he'd be losing a hand.
Bo struggled in Dysons strong hold as they came to a stop near the pool tables, "Dyson, what the hell, what's gotten into you?" Bo asked slightly concerned but mostly taken aback by his sudden aggresiveness, pulling hard to release her arm from his grip she shot him a questioning look. Dyson growled. "I'd be more inclinded to ask what's gotten into you, or should I say who. I can smell her all over you, do you think I wouldn't know?" Bo stood for a moment trying to process what she had just heard. Are you kidding me? Taking a few deep breaths in an attempt to reel in her anger, she spoke, "Firstly that's really gross and you need to stop doing that and secondly I'm not hiding anything from you, Tamsin and I shared a bed last night, i'm not going to apologise for that, who and what I do with my personal life is non of your business."
Dyson stood firm the muscle in his jaw flexing at his obvious distaste, "It is when your saftey is in jeopardy."
Bo rolled her eyes and crossed her arms "Dyson I don't need you saving me, Iv'e had enough heroics for one lifetime. I know we have a history but I'm a big girl and I don't need you to protect me all the time."
Dyson thought for a moment rubbing his hand down his face, "I'm not allowed to protect you but it's ok for Tamsin to lead you to Valhalla and put you in danger? It's her fault you are in this mess in the first place."
"Don't be so childish, she choose to be put in this position as much as we did. It's not her fault and she is doing everything she can to fix it. Don't forget you two are partners and up until yesterday you trusted her with your life."
"Yeah well things change." He grumbled moving on to his next burning question as his jealousy got the better of him, "Are you sleeping with her?"
She wasn't sure why she felt the need to answer his questions, it really was non of his business, she could have just said no and moved on but decided she was going to be honest instead, she may not have slept with Tamsin yet but she knew that it was something they would do in the not so distant future. If she prepared him a little now maybe he wouldn't take it so hard when it happen. Softening her stance she continued, "No Dyson I'm not, but that's not to say I won't. I'm not sure what's going to happen, but that's not the point right now. I know you care about me but I thought we moved passed this. You gave your love away, I moved on and now that you have it back..." she took in a deep breath knowing her next words were going to hurt him but needing to say them anyway, "You can't just expect me to come running back to you. With everything going on I need you to be ready, so either you man up, be my friend and help me or you leave, becuase Tamsin is staying. Like it or not."
She could see her words had stung by the expression the man had on his face, ignoring her urge to apologise she spun on her heels and began to walk away, hoping she had made her point, only making it a few steps before Dyson spoke again this time through gritted teeth. "I want to help you Bo. I just don't trust her. She's been given a task, it's her nature to follow through. It's what Valkyrie's do they never disobey. I think it's best if you don't get too close."
Bo stopped in her tracks fury burning up inside her chest but before she could turn around Dyson spoke again, "If you haven't been sleeping with Tamsin then how are you feeding, it's been days? You know how dangerous that is. You could lose control." She spun back around this time more hurt than angry at the fact that he so little faith in her control, she marched towards the wolf eyes fashing blue, he backed up a few steps unsure of her sudden change in direction. She stopped just short of his face looking him directly in the eyes her voice sharp and conscise. "Obviously I wasn't clear enough the first time. This is not your problem Dyson, i'll deal with it and as for Tamsin, she has saved your ass and mine not to mention Kenzi's, more times than I can count so you had better start trusting her. If you think for one second that I am walking away from her, you're wrong. She may have been given orders to take me in but she has risked her life over and over to help me, how much more does she need to prove? What's more dissapointing is that I thought you more than anybody would understand that we are not defined by our nature or controlled by people who think they own us, otherwise what the hell am I doing here?" Trying to hold back tears she turned, leaving Dyson to lick his wounds. She loved that man, but boy could he infuriate her, he was such an ass sometimes. She just wished he would move on so they could get back to being friends. She was disappointed that he didn't trust Tamsin, but more importantly that meant he didn't trust her.
Reaching the bar she sat to drink her now cold, coffee wishing there was a block of chocolate to join it. On top of everything else, It had been over a week since she last fed and the small taste of Tamsin this morning had left her hungrier than ever, not to mention she was growing weaker by the minute. Taking a sip from her mug she screwed up her face as the cool liquid left a bad taste in her mouth pushing it to the side she turned to Kenzi and Tamsin who had been watching with questioning looks waiting for an explaination. Bo simply shook her head and rolled her eyes, "I don't want to talk about it." she pouted not wanting to piss the Valkyrie off more than she had to, there was enough tension between Tamsin and Dyson as it was. They used to be such good mates and now it was like a pissing war, although you'd think she'd be used to it by now it seemed things were always complicated whenever it involved her love life. Unable to contain herself any longer Kenzi piped up, "Want me to go balls him for you, I can give a killer right hook to that the pretty little face of his? I may be small but this little mama's got skills." Bo laughed and pulled her friend in for a hug, she loved how feircely loyal the girl was to her even if she knew she'd never really hurt Dyson, Kenzi had a weakness for him but Bo couldn't really blame her he was a great guy when he wasn't being a dick. Looking over her small friends shoulder at Tamsin she wondered if she'd ever get the chance at a normal life, maybe she was asking too much, all she knew was that if she did, she hoped that these two girls would always be apart of it.
