Serena and Bernie. The start of something following their first kiss. Canon divergent. Rated M for later chapters Trigger warnings for Self Harm, PTSD, War and violence. Please don't read if you are in a vulnerable placeS

What started off as a Bernie/Serena one-shot that sort of spilled itself out on the page after reading a comment on Tumblr. has now started to develop into something more thanks to a review! Set in/after 'Indefensible'. Mild spoilers for this episode if you haven't watched it.

My take on what happened after the #Berena kiss in the episode, 'Protect and Serve'. This story will have M RATED chapters.

Just a Berena one shot that has been rattling around in my head. It's not big and it's not clever but I had to let out!

Serena spends most evenings drinking since Bernie left, and Jason doesn't like it. His routine has gone to tatters, the living room is a state and he misses the way his auntie Serena used to be. So, he decides to do something about it. Just a little idea I got from reading a *spoiler* that said Jason contacts Bernie in an upcoming episode.
