Chapter 3

Bo wakes up early again; she turns towards her sleeping girlfriend. Tamsin is beautiful, a bombshell as Kenzi used to say. Kenzi, I miss that face so much, I wonder what she is doing, she stopped calling, truth is I stopped calling her too, she and Tamsin didn't get along, Kenzi didn't like her sharks and jokes and the way she kind of replaced her in my life. Bo gets on the phone, she forgets it's too early for Kenzi to be up or maybe she is coming back from a club all drunk, Bo smiles as she calls her best mate, its 7 am and if she is sleeping waking her up would make her mad.

Kenzi is laying on the bathroom floor, unable to stand, Dan is standing behind her all worried, talking to Lauren on the phone, they are up all night, Kenzi is throwing up all over the place. Dan didn't manage to say a word to Lauren when Kenzi grabs the phone, 'Doc its killing me, bring me something, this baby it's going to be the end of me'. Calm down Kenzi, its severe morning sickness or the so called Hyperemesis Gravidarum' 'Hyper what? Kenzi yells, 'Send me something, drugs, weed I don't care what' 'Ok, ok get Dan back on the phone' Lauren tells Dan to keep Kenzi calm and she would be there in an second.

Kenzi finally answers her phone, 'Kenzi? 'No its Dan, Kenzi can't talk right now, 'Hello Dan, I am Bo' 'Yeah I know who you are' Dan says, Kenzi is sick right now, she is resting', 'Sick? 'Yes, I can't talk right now, I have to get back to her.'

Bo left holding the phone, she was left out of her best friends life and she didn't like it, why is Kenzi sick? Is it serious? That Dan guy has some nerve to shut the phone on me. Time to check on my friend Bo thinks. I missed her.

Kenzis new apartment is such an upgrade from the house they shared, Bo realizing that she only visited this place once in the months since Kenzi moved here. She asked her security to stay in the car while she would visit her friend alone, she didn't want her new status to make Kenzi defensive or wary.

Kenzis boyfriend opens the door, 'oh its you' 'Well its good to see you too' that's a hostile welcome Bo thinks, she gets inside the apartment, 'U guys really made this a nice place' 'Thank you, sorry for the rushed welcome but Kenzi was sick all night and her doctor is with her' 'So where is she? 'Why is she sick? Can I see her?

'She is laying right now while Lauren is checking her pulse and if she is dehydrated, when she is finished you can see her' Bos mind exploded! 'LAUREN?' Her mind pictures the words on her eyes 'LAUREN IS HERE' Bo got the urge to break down that bedroom door and burst in the room to see her, damn its been months, she already feels the shivers in her body, damn is she going to be happy to see me? My body aches for her all this time and since the nightmares started she can't get any rest, she can keep busy during the day, she has the New World to worry about, so many issues to be solved and arranged but nights, nights are difficult. 'Dan, come here sweetie' Laurens voice, its Laurens sweet caring voice. Its like a calling, always like that with Lauren, Bo prepares herself, its like fireworks, I have a gf, she is thinking, I have a gf and a bf, Dyson and Tamsin are my mates in life, my choices, my kind of people.

Dan gets in the bedroom, finally Kenzi is sleeping 'I had to give her a sleeping pill, she is weak but not dehydrated, she got her vitamins and you have to give her water with a spoon, she is ok now, let her sleep and get her strength back, she can eat soups, light food and a lot of fruits for awhile, ill try and get out earlier and come back to see her again in a few hours' 'So she is ok? 'Yes, don't worry but we have to keep an eye on her'?

Lauren gets her bag ready and walks outside the bedroom, Dan is behind her, he didn't manage to tell her who is standing there. Bo is watching Lauren walking towards her, she stops and turns to Dan 'So that's all for now Dan, let me know if anything changes'

And just like that, Lauren walks in front of Bo, opens the door and leaves.

Wow Dan thinks, did that just happened?

Bo is dumbfucked. Did Lauren just walk past her? Like seriously? Like WTF, she ignored me? Like wtf? Damn she is hot, did she lose weight? Her face was like an ancient Greek sculpture and her hair are longer. Her body, her blood felt Laurens presence like a transfusion. Get yourself together Bo. 'Can I see Kenzi now? 'Of course, she is sleeping but you can sit next to her if you want.' 'Yes, that would be nice'

I need to take the day off, Lauren is thinking. I need to take the day off, Lauren is proud of herself, proud that she was able to stand, to keep her shivering legs standing, Bo was there, Bo was there in all her glory, standing tall and looking strong, like the new Queen she is. Lauren smirked, ignoring someone was rude, but what did she expect? She isn't my Queen. I am free, not a fae slave anymore. Free from the fae and free from her, finally free from everything that hurts me. Bo looked tired though, tired and tortured? No, Lauren stop, stop thinking about that, Bo made her choices, she has others to care for her, it's not your job anymore. Bo doesn't deserve her slightest thought.
