Huck lay awake while she slept. His conversation with Olivia had went longer than he expected when he rolled over he saw she was asleep with a small smile. He should have been asleep with her, they had an early morning. Olivia told him that Billy was insane and the things he was demanding were ridiculous, they would have to find another way to stop him. Right now his only worry was Quinn, had they moved too quickly? As he closed his eyes he knew he couldn't mess things up between them, especially not now.
Huck's phone rang and his eyes snapped open, it was Sam.
"What's up, Sam?" Huck asked.
"Someone has cameras in your house. I have to say, Spin, you made me blush by the show you just put on." Huck got out of the bed slowly and walked over to his dresser, he opened up a drawer and pressed a button in the back of it. "You and Quinn?"
"Sam…" He said slowly, he didn't want to talk about this right now.
"I'm not surprised, she's your type. Hell, she's everyone's type. Loyal, smart, pretty and now I know she's pretty flexible." Sam giggled, "If you hurt her, I will hurt you, Spin. I know since Command put you out on loan you've been hurt too. Things didn't work out with Kate, I'm sorry but maybe they could work out with Quinn. At least she loves you."
"Goodnight, Sam." Huck said, he was being short so he didn't say anything mean to Sam.
"Oh, I struck a nerve did I? Goodnight, Spin. Well, guess I can't call you that anymore." Huck hung up the phone and closed the drawer, Quinn mumbled something in her sleep and rolled over, her hand rubbed the spot where he should have been and she opened her eyes slowly looking around. She spotted him across the room and rolled onto her back running her fingers through her hair.
"Come back to bed, Huck. Who were you talking to?"
"Sam." He said while walking towards her, he climbed into bed and she wrapped her arms around him. "You were going to say something before I answered the phone, but you fell asleep."
"It was nothing, what did Sam say? Is she alright?"
"Sam? Yes. She's fine, it's us she's worried about. Someone placed cameras in this apartment, and they saw everything that just happened and sent it to Sam. It could only be one person."
"Who?" She asked, she looked around the bedroom.
"Kate." Huck said, "Don't worry, they can't see anything now."
"Your ex-girlfriend?"
"It wouldn't surprise me, if Penelope pulled her into this." Huck sighed, "It's going to be fine, I'll handle it."
Huck was just about to drift off to sleep again when his phone rang, he was about to turn the damn thing off. He wanted to sleep but for some reason the world wouldn't let him, he peeled Quinn's arms away from him and answered it.
"What?"
"Riddle me this, baby." Kate said on the other end of the phone, "You're going to fuck another girl in our place?"
"There is no us, Kate. You made that very clear."
"Y'know, I was supposed to kill her, that girl in your bed. I should have, I should have just followed her home and killed her but then you probably would have been there too. How long have you been with her?"
"That's none of your business, Kate. I would prefer that you not get involved, things will get bad really quickly if you keep doing this."
"Don't worry, Spin. I'm just getting starting, Hell, Penelope doesn't even have to pay me for this. I'll take her out for free."
"Katherine, if you touch her I will have no choice but to hurt you." Huck said calmly, he didn't want to speak her under these circumstances. "And I don't want to but I will."
"We'll be in touch, baby." She ended the phone call and he was tempted to throw the phone across the room, but he didn't want to wake Quinn. He didn't want her to worry, he was causing more and more problems in her life.
"I'll be back." Huck said, Quinn knew something was going on. She heard arguing with Kate last night on the phone. It was her. Kate was coming after her for whatever reason, as soon as he closed the door and left she grabbed her bag. There was no doubt in her mind that Kate was coming, it was just a matter of time.
An hour ticked by before the doorknob jiggled, she assumed it was Huck. How wrong she was, it was odd to finally put a face to a name. She had short black hair, and smiled happily.
"Nice to finally meet you, I'm-"
"Kate."
"You know about me?"
"He's told me so much." Quinn said bitterly. "What do you want?"
"First off, I'm going to kill you." Kate closed the door behind her and walked over to Quinn, "But right now I need all the information you have Jesse Tyler."
"Fine." Quinn said angrily.
"Fine? It's that easy." Kate sat across her and watched her dig through her bag, Kate wasn't sure why she hadn't pulled out her own firearm, but now it was too late to reach for it. If she did reach for it the woman would kill her. "You're going to kill me."
"No, I don't think so. I mean, I might. My finger could slip and then Huck would come back and clean up the mess for me." Kate smiled, she couldn't believe how deceptive she was. Penelope definitely hadn't warned her about this. Kate had been so excited to meet the woman who had stolen Huck right out from underneath her. "But he cares about you, he loves you."
"And what about you?"
"You came here to kill me so I'll be the one asking the question. What does Penelope want from Jesse?"
"I don't know, I was sent to retrieve you." Kate looked up at the door as it opened. Huck stepped inside and looked at Quinn then Kate. He pulled out his gun and kicked the door closed and trained it on Kate. "Honey, I just met your new girlfriend, quite a pistol."
"What the hell are you doing here?" Huck asked as he walked near them and then he saw the gun Quinn was holding. When did she get a gun? How did he not notice and why did she know how to hold it properly?
"You know why." Kate said, Huck lowered his weapon and pulled the zipties out of his pocket. "You taking me in?"
"Yes, and that's me being kind. You know what I'm capable of." He tied her hands together and removed both of her weapons watching as Quinn put her weapon away.
"How long were you screwing her?" Kate asked.
"We were not-"
"You told me you would think about it then you never did. You became distant and it was because-" Huck jammed the needle in her neck and watched her succumb to unconsciousness.
"Now, explain to me why you have a gun?" Quinn looked up at him and then back at his girlifriend.
"Only if you explain to me why you never told that you were in a relationship before." Quinn said, she sounded angry. He was used to her sounding angry but her tone was icy. He didn't like that.
"You were seeing someone." Huck said, it had been the truth. Huck had simply began to ignore Kate, all her wants and demands came second to his initial mission. He never wanted Quinn to find out about things like this.
"And you had a girlfriend!"
"And then I didn't. She broke up with me."
"When?" Quinn asked, she folded her arms across her chest.
"It wasn't an easy choice to make-"
"I said when? When did she break up with you?"
"When I returned from Defiance." Huck said, "Now tell me where you got the gun."
