"I'm here for you"
It was a cold and rainy morning, Bo laid on the sofa with her eyes closed. She listened to the sound of the rain and enjoyed the small amount of comfort that the sofa gave her. She felt like things with Lauren will be okay again, she felt like she might have a chance to win Lauren's heart back. She then thought about Emma, she really did have a connection with the kid, but Bo thought maybe it was just because of Lauren. Bo did notice that Emma was a bit of like Lauren, not just her personality, but also her features, though it would be impossible since she guessed that Emma was around six years old
"Kenz..." Bo murmured as she felt someone staring at her.
"Good, you are awake!" Kenzi said in a high pitched tone, which made Bo groan. "It would be weird if you start to talk, it was weird enough to see you smiling while you were asleep. I'm guessing it has something to do with hotpants's pants, right?"
Bo opened her eyes and saw Kenzi on the other end of the sofa, eating some ice cream. "You just distracted me from my beautiful, aweso-"
"No details please, I don't want to be traumatized." Kenzi covered her ears.
Bo laughed and sat up. "Then you should stop staring at people when they are asleep."
"I was not staring. Just making you feel uncomfortable so that you would wake up."
"I'm awake now, what is so important that I needed to be awaken from my sleep?"
"Well! You promised me a bedtime story last night, and I didn't get any." Kenzi raised her eyebrow.
"You were already asleep when I got back." Bo crossed her arms together, as she raised an eyebrow back at Kenzi.
"Fine... What about now?" Kenzi smiled widely, as she handed Bo a cup of coffee.
"Fine" Bo smiled back. "Well... two days ago me and Lauren finally got to talk. I said what I wanted to say and I think, I hope, that she did too. She asked me to stay for the night because it was late an-"
"Lame excuse. She totally wanted you to stay." Kenzi grinned.
"Shall I continue?" Bo raised her eyebrow.
"Yes! Sorry, no interruptions from now on." Kenzi made a zipping motion on her mouth, with her hand.
"Good!" Bo took a sip of her coffee and continued. "So... I said yes, and stayed there for the night, we stayed on her bed for quite some- no not like that Kenz." Bo could see Kenzi raising both of her eyebrows up and down.
"Well this is new." Kenzi grinned. "Okay, promise! This is the last time I'll interrupt you."
"We stayed in bed and talked. She told me about Sam, he was this guy that she met about two years ago. He has been her best friend and they treated each other like family. Sadly, Sam died in the war- Oh! Forgot to mention that he was a marine...The day after I met Emma. Emma was the little kid that Lauren talked to on the phone, when we overheard her calling herself mommy." Bo paused as Kenzi raised her hand, looking very eager to ask something. "Go ahead you can ta-"
"WHAT THE FAE! There is a junior hotpants!?" Kenzi blurted out.
"Shhhh! The whole building can hear you." Bo continued when she was sure that Kenzi has calmed herself down. "Well... she isn't Lauren's, she is Sam's daughter, I guess, I haven't really asked Lauren I just figured. She has not said anything about Emma being her child, and she has blue eyes like Sam... And yesterday, we went to the zoo. We had a really great time, Emma showed me her favorite animals, I got to spent some time with Lauren, took some pictures, and yeah that was pretty much it."
"Do you have pictures!?"
"Ummm, yeah I think I have some." Bo searched for her phone. "Here." She then gave it to Kenzi, when she found it.
"Who's the glasses?" Kenzi looked up from the phone.
"Oh, that is Anne. She is a good friend of Lauren."
"Bo... Call me cray cray, but hotpants junior... is hotpants junior!"
"What do you mean?" Bo sat beside Kenzi and looked down at her phone, On the screen was a photo of Emma.
"She looks like Lauren! And there are some pictures of her where... where she kinda looks like you." Kenzi scrolled through the pictures, as she searched for that one picture she had in mind. "Look!" Kenzi tilted the phone to Bo's direction.
Bo gave her a confusing look."Are you saying..."
Kenzi laughed. "Nah! It's just probably me, haven't slept much, and this couch hates me. Besides there is no way it's possible." Kenzi gave Bo her phone back, as she licked her ice cream that was starting to melt.
"Yeah, I guess that's it." Bo replied absentmindedly. When Kenzi said that Emma looked like Lauren, she couldn't help but think that Kenzi might be right. She didn't trust herself from being right when she realized it herself, but when Kenzi saw it too, then maybe it must be true. Bo looked down at her phone once more, and studied the picture of Emma on the screen. When Kenzi pointed it out, she could not help it but agree, Emma does look a bit like her, especially her eyes, even though they were blue. Bo shook her head, she though that this must be a result from lack of sleep.
"Bo! Hellooooooo." Kenzi shook Bo's arm.
"Wha- yes, what?" Bo replied as she snapped out of her thoughts.
"I said, wolfman will be coming today, so we won't be suffering from this evil sofa any longer."
"Dyson, crap! I forgot he was coming today! I haven't told Lauren yesterday."
"Well you better get your ass out of this couch succubus. He will be here soon."
"Right, yes!" Bo stood up. "I need to take a quick shower first."
"Yes, being presentable would be nice."
A couple of minutes later Bo walked out of the bathroom. Newly showered and newly dressed.
"What do you think?" Bo asked Kenzi, as she made a quick turn.
"Smells good and wearing that leather like a boss." Kenzi said as she studied Bo's outfit. "Go get em girl." Kenzi grinned.
"I will!" Bo smiled, and turned around.
"Oh! And Bo, a doctor was here yesterday... Her name was...Barter- No- Camer? Badger? Ca-"
"Carter?" Bo moved her hand away from the door knob, and turned back to face Kenzi.
"Yes! That one!" Kenzi clapped her hands together.
"What did she want?" Bo asked suspiciously.
"Well first she checked on the little girl. Then after wards she began to a have a little chaty chat with me, until she got a little bit weird."
"Weird how, Kenz?"
"She began to ask questions about you. I though at first that it was a result from you super succubus powers, that she thinks you like her or something. But... It wasn't suppose to last that long right? Or did you like totally dope her out?"
"No, no it was not suppose to last that long... What questions did she ask?"
"Well... first she asked where we are from and what are we doing here. Then she asked what your full name was, and asked if you were living alone or were you living with a family member. She then asked where you were, and I said that you were out getting some food...But then she began to ask about Lauren and-"
"Wait, she asked about Lauren?"
"Yes, she asked if we knew Lauren, and what your relation is with her... I told her that you knew Lauren before... I thought maybe she knew Lauren and saw you two talking to each other, I don't know..."
"Was that all? You didn't tell her about Lauren's past right?" Bo asked in a worried tone.
"No... Why? Is this Carter a problem?" Kenzi's tone became more serious.
"I don't know yet. But I have a feeling that she is." Bo replied. "I have to go, call me when Dyson comes."
"I will! Good luck!" Kenzi called out, when Bo walked out of the door.
When Bo closed the door behind her she walked straight down the hall. She stopped in front of Carter's office and knocked on the door. When she didn't get any answer she decided to open the door, but it turned out to be locked.
"Excuse me" Bo asked the nurse that walked pass by.
"Yes?" The nurse smiled at her.
"Do you know where doctor Carter is?"
"She is not at work today, sorry. Was there anything you needed help for?"
"No, thanks. I was just wondering." Bo smiled.
"Okay." The nurse replied, and then walked away.
Bo sighed. She then decided to go to the canteen, and see if she could get some answers. When she saw that the woman behind the counter was the one that she wanted to talk too, she breathed out in relief.
"Hello again." She greeted the woman.
"Hi, how can I help you." The woman replied.
"I would like to have a word with you, it will only take a minute."
"I can't. I have work to do." The woman looked away.
"There is no one in here. There is only one man sitting over there, and he has not even ordered anything." Bo said impatiently.
"I need to go." The woman turned around.
Bo caught her arm before she could walk away. "I just need to talk to you. It won't take long."
The woman hesitated for a minute, as she scanned the place with her eyes. "Okay. Follow me." The woman replied urgently, and walked inside the back door.
"Tell me about Carter." Bo said as she closed the door behind her.
"What about doctor Carter?"
"What did she do to you? Don't lie to me, because I noticed that something was wrong when she and I were eating breakfast here two days ago."
"I can't" The woman replied. "She will make me forget."
"What do you mean? What do you mean that she will make you forget?"
"I- I saw her, I saw what she did to the man- I... She made me promise, if- if I don't tell anyone, then she will not do it to me." She said with a horrifying expression on her face.
Bo placed a hand on the woman's arm to calm her down. "It's alright. I won't let her hurt you, just tell me what she did. I can stop her."
The woman looked at Bo in the eyes, like she was searching for something. After a few moments, she looked down at her shaky hands and continued. "She sucked out something from him... You might think that I am crazy, but I saw it, there was light coming out from his head...A couple of minutes later, the man woke up and acted like nothing happened... not only that...he didn't remember anything, not even his own name." The woman looked back up at Bo. "She asked me to spy on you and your friend. She told me to give information about you two."
"Did she tell you why you had to spy on us?"
"No... Can I go now? I don't want her to find out that I was talking to you privately."
"Of course. Just one more thing, did she mention anything about doctor Le- Davis?"
"She did not mention anything about her recently... But..." The woman paused and looked back down on her hands.
"Look..." Bo looked at the name tag on the woman's shirt. "Angie, I know you are scared... But I really need your help, someones life might be in danger."
"You think you can stop her?" Angie asked.
"I will." Bo insured. "But I'm going to need your help. Now can you tell me about doctor Davis?"
Angie gave Bo a nod. "When she caught me seeing what she did to the man, she was about to do the same thing to me...I was terrified, I didn't know what to do." Angie's eyes began to turn red. "I begged her not to do it... and luckily I came up with something that made her spare my memories. I told her that I will do anything she asks, I offered to become her personal slave. She then asked me to watch doctor Davis's every move, and to report to her every day."
"Did she tell you why?"
"No, all she said was report to her every day and keep my mouth shut. So that is why I didn't want to tell you anything... but I trust you, I have too, I can't live like this any longer." Angie sighed. "When I reported to her a few days ago, the day when you and doctor Davis met in her office, that was the day that she told me too keep an eye on you and your friend."
Bo nodded. "Thank you, Angie. Don't worry, you will get your old life back." Bo gave her a reassuring smile. Angie nodded and smiled before she walked out of the door, Bo followed her and grabbed her phone from her pocket. She dialed Lauren's number and walked out of the hospital.
She knocked on the door and waited patiently, a few moments later she heard footsteps coming towards her.
"Bo" Lauren met her with a surprised face.
"Hey, I'm sorry if I waked you... you didn't answer your phone and I got worried."
"It's okay, I was already awake. Come in" Lauren opened the door wider. "Is there something wrong? Why were you worried." Lauren asked Bo when she walked into the living room.
"Well... You know doctor Carter right? The doctor of the little girl that me and Kenzi brought in." Lauren nodded, then Bo continued. "Well... She is up to something, she wants something... from me... and from you." Bo looked at Lauren in the eyes.
"Did she ask you anything? What- what did she say? Did she ask something about me? About Emma!?" Lauren asked in a panicked voice.
"I-" Bo paused for a while, she could see that Lauren was panicking, she then suspected that Lauren must have known something about it. "Well she asked Kenzi personal things about me, which was odd. Then she asked what my relation to you is" Bo walked closer to Lauren and held her arm. "Lauren, is there something you are not telling me?" She looked her in the eyes.
Lauren couldn't look directly Bo in the eyes. "No, I- Are you sure she didn't mention Emma?"
"No... Why is it so important? Lauren, look at me." Bo slowly cupped Lauren's face, and turned it to face her. "You need to tell me what's wrong, I am here to help. You don't have to do this alone."
"It's- It's just too dangerous Bo." Lauren looked back down at the floor, as a tear fell off her face.
"I know that Carter is fae, that she feeds on the memory of people. I can stop her Lauren, I have encountered worst."
"How- how did you know? This is bad... this is really bad Bo. It's too dangerous."
"Lauren, you have seen me risk my life many times, and I am not gonna stop now, especially when it comes to you, and when it comes to Emma." Lauren finally looked up. Bo noticed Lauren's expression, and she knew what she was about to say. "I will protect her for you... I will protect you both, no matter what." Bo took Lauren's hand. "I know that she means a lot to you, you care for her, you love her...I saw it yesterday, the way you are when you are with her, you treat her like your own daughter, and that is how important she is to you."
Lauren closed her eyes and breathed out. "It's because she is Bo." She opened her eyes and met Bo's brown ones. "Emma is my biological daughter."
Bo gave her a confusing look. "Wh- what do you mean? How- where you with someone else? Sperm dona-"
"No- no." Lauren stopped Bo from listing up the things that she could think of. "Emma is our child, Bo."
"O- our child?"
"Yes, I know it sounds crazy... but I can explain everything to you." Lauren looked at Bo who was still processing the words that she just said.
"Emma is my daughter..." Bo whispered. And with just a few moments Bo's expression changed."Our daughter!" She smiled happily, as tears fell off her face. She then moved closer to Lauren and gave her a kiss.
"Yes, she is" Lauren said with a smile, as tears fell off her face.
"I'm a mom!" Bo cried happily.
Hope u guys enjoyed this chapter!
So now that Bo knows about Emma, I can begin to explain about Emma's background and her health problems. So hopefully your questions about Emma will be answered in the next chapter, depending on what you guys want to know? Because I will be mentioning some things, and I don't know if it would answer your questions about her. You can leave some questions about Emma if you want, and I can try to answer it in the next chapter, when Lauren explains things to Bo :)
There are also questions about the big bad villain that is after them, you guys might have to wait a little bit for the answer to that question. I wouldn't want to spoil anything ;) Someone also wanted a story on how Lauren and Anne met. I am going to write that in the end of this story, there will be an epilouge to tie things up.
