Dyson's POV-
After the emotional bomb with Bo, I had decided it would be best to take Kenzi to my place since she actually looked ill and I was starting to fear for her health. After calling Hale and explaining as much as I had to in order to get him to cover for Kenzi and I as well as pick up pizza for the others, I lifted the small human in my arms and sprinted back to my place. My worry only increased when Kenzi had no reaction at all to me carrying her which was odd because if it had been any other time I had no doubt in my mind she would either be putting up a fight or making sarcastic comments and jokes at my expense in order to get a good laugh, but she wasn't doing either of those things hence my concern. I really hoped she wasn't going catatonic on me or something since I knew I wouldn't be able to handle losing her a second time considering I barely made it the first time and it wasn't even her like I had thought. I'd hate to see what kind of shape I would be in if something happened to the real Kenzi.
It didn't take long for us to reach my apartment and once inside I went directly to my bedroom laying Kenzi down on the bed before heading to the kitchen to get her something to drink even though she had not asked for anything. I needed to do something for her and since there was no way to give her the friendship she shared with Bo back in better condition, I would do what i could and at this moment I could get her something to drink even though she may not want it.
"Did you see the look on her face?" The sound of Kenzi's soft words stopped me in my tracks and I turned around to look at her so she would know she had my full attention, which I assumed she wanted or else she wouldn't have spoken, unless of course she had been talking to herself, but I doubted it because she was looking directly at me with dull eyes blank of all emotion. "Bo is never going to forgive me. The look in her eyes, the hate, I have never seen her look like that even when she was crazy or evil. I've lost her Dyson; I've lost the only real family in my life other than you, Hale, and Trick."
Deciding a drink could wait, I made my way back over to the bed and laid down next to her being sure to wrap my arms around her from behind before pulling her as close as I possibly could against my chest. "You haven't lost her Kenzi. Bo just needs some time. You knew that she would need time. She will forgive you Kenzi because you're her family and family is more important than a relationship that was doomed from the very start. Bo may be angry right now, but eventually she will come to see that our relationship would have never worked out and then she will feel horrible for treating you the way she has. The two of you will cry, hug, eat ice cream and then everything will be fine again. I promise the two of you will be back to gossiping and causing trouble soon enough."
"Are you a profit now?" She teased while at the same time sniffling softly trying to hold back her tears and failing since I could smell the salt spilling down her cheeks in a fairly steady flow. "Can you wolves see the future? Also, when did you take up being a optimist? I thought that was my job and you had the job of being the pessimist which you were actually quite good at by the way."
"Theres the sarcastic woman I'm crazy about." I teased back kissing the top of her head and then rested my head on her shoulder. "It really is going to be alright you know. Oh, to answer your question from before, I can't see the future so it must your usual optimism seeping past my pessimism working its way in to my system and taking over."
I could feel her chuckle lightly. "That's just because I am totally awesome and secretly you want to be more like me even if you try to deny it. Dyson, thank you for trying to make me feel better. I was being kind of selfish about everything and only thinking of myself when the truth is Bo was your friend as well and on top of that you guys dated on and off for a while. This can't be easy on you either and I am sorry it took me so long to realize it. I was so consumed by my own fear and my own pain I forget about yours and that isn't acceptable; especially if we are going to try and make a go of this relationship. From this point on I will do my best to remember that we are in this together. I was alone for so long it's still not something I am used to yet."
"We will just have to learn together Kenz." I whispered before closing my eyes slightly. If I was this tired then Kenzi had to be exhausted since she was human and her energy depleted a lot faster than mine. "Close your eyes and try to get some rest. You've had a very long day and tomorrow we have to do some research on the mission you are determined to go on. I may not want you to do it, but if you are going to do it no matter what then I at least want to be prepared the best we can. Sleep Kenzi, everything is going to be alright I promise you. Try to remember that things always look darkest before the dawn and our dawn will come, we just have to fight through the dark first. I love you my little stubborn human and I will do whatever it takes to make sure we see the light of our dawn."
TBC...
AN: I am sorry this chapter was so short and it took so long to get out. I want to thank everyone who has been kind and messaged me about my health with get well wishes. I see my doctors in Boston very soon and they are going to discuss surgery for the aneurism and start testing my aunt to see if she can give me half her liver which would be good since it would be faster than having to wait for a whole one to become available. Anyways, I hope you liked this filler chapter and I would love to hear your thoughts.
Please R&R like always!
