FIRST OF ALL I WANNA SAY I AM SO SORRY FOR NOT HAVING FINISHED THE STORY BY THEN! I DIDN'T HAVE TIME BY THEN AND I THOUGHT THAT THE STORY WOULD ONLY BE UPLOADED DURING 90 DAYS (BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT THE SITE SAID WHEN I UPLOADED EVERY CHAPTER OR THAT'S WHAT I UNDERSTOOD) SO I THOUGH IT WASN'T ON THE WEBSITE ANYMORE. SOMEONE FAVOURITED THE STORY RECENTLY WHAT MADE ME REALIZE THE STORY WAS STILL UP AND UNFINISHED IN THE SITE. SO HERE'S THE FINAL CHAPTER.
A week had passed and Lauren knew nothing about Evony. She wouldn't answer her texts, her phone, her e-mail… nothing. And the security measures had been so high that even she couldn't fool them. She didn't even know what to tell her. Well, the truth. That she didn't expect to fall for her. But Evony was so proud that she wouldn't believe her. And Lauren didn't know what to do.
She opened the door to go for a walk and clear her head. And suddenly, there she was, Evony. She didn't see Lauren, but she was walking up and down the street like a wanderer. Lauren hesitated at first, but that could not be a coincidence, she was waiting for her.
"Evony" she said. The Morrigan raised her head, and freeze when she saw Lauren, she looked confused.
"Hi" She said. "I was just… I didn't expect to see you" She said trying to look calmed.
"You're in front of my house" said Lauren, trying to sound nice. Evony didn't know what to say.
"I guess I wanted to see you but I didn't" replied at last.
"Well, I've been trying to reach you, even in your office…" Lauren started.
"I know" Said Evony. Lauren wondered how, but she was The Morrigan, so she didn't ask.
"Can we… can we talk?" Asked Lauren carefully. Evony seemed strange. "I mean, now that you're here…"
"I wanted to kill you" Said Evony.
"OK…" Replied Lauren waiting for an explanation.
"But then I realized… that's why you're afraid of me. Or people. Because I could kill anyone I wanted" She stated. Lauren wasn't sure where the conversation was leading. The Morrigan continued "So after I was almost killed… and you were almost killed I can understand what is like to want to protect yourself and people you… care about".
"Are you saying…?" started to ask Lauren carefully.
"I'm saying that I understand you wanting to save Bo" Interrupted Evony. "I understand what is like to… care about someone… so deeply I guess".
"I do care about Bo" said Lauren. Evony looked to the side. She didn't like to hear that. "But I do care about you too" she continued. Evony looked up. "And while I… seduced you, or tried, in order to get your DNA and be able to do that serum I really… I really hoped I didn't want to use it".
"And why's that?" Asked Evony, afraid of the answer.
"Because I was starting to fall for you" confessed Lauren. "But at the same time I was afraid that I might hurt you". Hurt. Evony thought about it. She was hurt, that was the word she had been looking for.
"Well, you hurt me". She finally said. "Congratulations, it is possible to hurt the Morrigan"
"I never though it wasn't" Said Lauren. "At least since I met you. And that's what I love about you" said Lauren nervously "I mean, that you're… not human but… a sensitive person I guess"
"Don't ever say that in public" replied Evony. She tried to look proud and strong, but it was hard.
"I promise I won't" Said Lauren trying not to laugh out loud, but she couldn't help to smile. "But I might ask for something in return…"
"What?" Said Evony. She forgot how much she liked Lauren's smile.
"Dinner, with me" Said Lauren hoping Evony would accept. "No unpleasant surprises".
"No serum?" replied Evony.
"No serum. No blond girls" Said Lauren, Evony looked at her confused, Lauren replied "I mean, no blond girls with curly hair! Just straight girls, I mean, blond girls with straight hair. OK, I'm gonna shut up right now" Evony smiled at how awkward Lauren was sometimes.
"So… Just you and me" said Evony.
"Just you and me" confirmed Lauren getting closer.
"And how do I know that you're telling the truth?" asked Evony not moving. Lauren moved even closer. Evony stand still, feeling her breath. Lauren leaned a little closer and her lips ended up in a kiss. The kiss was really soft and slow and Evony felt what she thought butterflies in the stomach must felt.
"Is this enough proof?" Asked Lauren with a smirk. Evony smiled back trying to look calmed.
"I don't know, I might need another one" she said playfully. Lauren laughed and they kissed again. They had definitely a date.
