So I realized that in this story I referenced Lauren being in England with Natalie…yeah apparently I do have too many stories going because I just mixed up the character history LOL. Sorry about that. But luckily it doesn't tarnish this Lauren so I'll just say…oops my bad. =)

The other thing I realized as I went back to re-read some of this is wow, I kind of followed parts of the storyline of the show unknowingly LOL. Don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing but I assure you this wasn't written with them in mind. Okay just had to get that off my chest. Now on with it…oh and there's a bit of sexy times in this one, but not too much so I don't think it needs an M rating warning.

Characters aren't mine. I've taken the liberties I wanted for the storyline, but the characters belong to Showcase and Lost Girl. Enjoy!

Chapter 21

Tamsin sighed as she opened her door and rubbed the back of her neck to rub the kinks out as she looked around and smiled softly at the quiet apartment. It had been a long week and a new homicide had her and Dyson clocking exhaustingly long hours leaving her drained at the end of each day. She padded through the apartment and shut off the lights that were left on as she glanced at the note on the counter telling her dinner was in the oven if she was hungry and if she wasn't to put it in the fridge. Tamsin laughed and shook her head as she stuck the food in the fridge as directed knowing all she wanted to do was climb into bed and pass out for the night.

They'd finally caught the guy and Tamsin was looking forward to having the next two days off and catching up on her much needed sleep. She walked into the bedroom and smiled softly at the lump in her bed that was apparently sleeping in a diagonal pattern taking up most of the space. Tamsin rolled her eyes as she stripped down to her underwear not even bothering to put on her pajamas before she lifted up the covers to slide in next to the body that was currently preventing her from resting comfortably in her own bed.

Lauren grumbled a bit as Tamsin slid in beside her and gently moved her legs over so that she could stretch out fully. Being tall, Tamsin had ensured she had a comfortable bed and Lauren had to admit, the California king mattress was heavily, especially during their sexy time. Tamsin smiled at Lauren's rumblings as she slid an arm around the doctor and held her by the waist lightly. Lauren's hand immediately found Tamsin's and she threaded their fingers together as she smiled and hummed sleepily.

"You're home late."

Tamsin sighed and kissed Lauren's shoulder before snuggling into her a bit. "Paperwork and Dyson was being a prick about finishing it."
Lauren murmured something unintelligible as she got comfortable next to Tamsin and sighed happily. She loved how seamlessly their relationship had progressed especially given her doubts early on when they were still figuring things out. By no means was she ready to U-haul it with the Valkyrie or anything, and truthfully Lauren didn't even know if Tamsin knew about that kind of stuff, but she was content in knowing with each milestone they came upon Tamsin was able to cross it by her side and that was all that mattered. Sure, the taller blonde stumbled from time to time and Lauren knew this more open, trusting side of her was reserved for her and her alone, but it was comforting to know that at least Tamsin was trying.

Lauren had spent the past week in the lab and she'd discovered something that might be a big clue as to why Bo had been at the center of the very strange mystery they'd found themselves in for the past while. Lauren found a link between Bo's DNA and another sample she had and if her suspicions were correct, well, this would be a game changer for the whole group.

Unfortunately what Lauren didn't know was that there was another very interested part who was aware of her discovery. Evony had been keeping close tabs on the work Lauren was doing and now that she was certain about the doctor's discovery she needed to act quickly to ensure her plans were carried out accordingly. She knew on the surface that Bo was able to brush off the doubt she had planted the last time the Succubus was at her office but like most things, Evony knew that deep down some of what she'd told Bo stuck with her. She'd watched the happy go lucky group seemingly disband for a day or so but now it appears all is well again and she wasn't sure if that was genuine or not. In order for her plan to work the Succubus needed to be isolated from her group and she was finding that harder to do than she originally thought.

The next morning Tamsin stretched out and yawned deeply as she stretched her tired and sore limbs appreciatively. She felt the other side of the bed and opened her eyes when her hand connected with the cool sheets that lay next to her. She sniffed deeply and immediately scrambled out of bed at the smell of coffee and…sausage? Tamsin threw a pair of boxers and a t-shirt on before groggily moving into the kitchen and stopped in her tracks at the sight before her.

Lauren had music playing not too loudly as she danced around the kitchen making eggs, sausage and waffles all the while singing to herself and smiling like a fool. Tamsin watched her for a few amused seconds before she cleared her throat. "Lauren?"
The doctor let out a small yelp of surprise before she turned the music down and looked over at Tamsin with an embarrassed smile. Tamsin chuckled as she walked into the kitchen and took note of the groceries that were now stocking her pantry as well as all of the mouthwatering food Lauren was cooking. She moved behind Lauren and wrapped one arm around her waist before reaching for the cup of coffee the shorter blonde was drinking from. Tamsin took a sip and moaned at the caffeine before placing a kiss on Lauren's neck and peering at what she was doing.

"I didn't know I had food here."

Lauren laughed and nodded. "You didn't so I had gone grocery shopping last night."

Tamsin laughed and moved her other hand down to Lauren's wrist and moved her hand forward so Lauren turned off the stove. The human laughed and glanced up at her curiously. "What are you doing? Aren't you hungry?"

Tamsin smirked as she nodded and turned the doctor around before lifting her up to sit on the counter. She leaned into Lauren and kissed her roughly loving how Lauren's legs wrapped around her waist and the human moaned into her mouth. "I am very hungry."

Tamsin slid her hands up Lauren's shirt and let her fingers find the soft skin of Lauren's bra-clad chest before lifting her shirt up completely along with the thin piece of clothing that was stopping her from running her tongue along the little peaks. Lauren moaned as Tamsin lavished her breasts taking time to ensure each one was properly attended to.

"I…ugh…thought you wanted….hmmmm….to eat?"

Tamsin smiled as she bit Lauren's nipple gently causing the human to groan and pull Tamsin closer with her legs. "I am...just not for food."
Tamsin let her hands slide down to Lauren's pants and she helped the doctor lift her hips up enough for Tamsin to slide her pants and underwear down to her knees. Tamsin didn't even waste time with foreplay before she dove into the apex of Lauren's legs causing the doctor to scream out in pleasure as Tamsin's tongue expertly passed over her center and her little nub. Tamsin moaned as she was met with a wave of wetness telling her Lauren was enjoying Tamsin's breakfast choice and she scooted Lauren forward a bit to gain further access to where she desired most.

"Fuck Tamsin…maybe we should…ohhh okay…"

Tamsin ignored what Lauren was saying as she entered her with her tongue in fast hard thrusts. It had been a little over a week since Tamsin had any kind of extracurricular activities with her girlfriend and after seeing Lauren dance around her kitchen this morning, well, something snapped inside of her and she needed to take her then and there.

Tamsin felt the blonde's juices smearing across her face but she didn't care as she continued to help herself to her 'breakfast' and from the sounds Lauren was making she was in no position to tell her to slow down or stop. Tamsin moaned again as Lauren's hands found her hair and soon the doctor was rocking her hips into Tamsin's face as she guided her gently with her hands. Times like this Tamsin absolutely loved how direct Lauren could be and it made her groan in appreciation at the way Lauren was silently telling her what she wanted.

A few more thrusts of her tongue was enough to finish Lauren off and she came with a hard scream as her legs locked around Tamsin's head holding her in place. The Valkyrie continued to lap with her tongue and finally Lauren had to push her away with a laugh and a very satisfied smile on her face. Tamsin stood up and grinned at the doctor who rolled her eyes at how messy Tamsin looked. Lauren found it oddly cute but at the same time kind of disgusting that Tamsin was so messy when she…well…you know. The taller blonde laughed and wiped her face with a paper towel before leaning in and kissing the doctor softly. Lauren moaned at the gentleness of the kiss and squealed as Tamsin picked her up and carried her towards the bedroom. Apparently her breakfast plans would have to wait because the Valkyrie woke up with an appetite alright but it definitely wasn't for anything that could be made in the kitchen.

ooOOoo

"…and that is how Lauren and I decided being friends does not mean we can be roommates."

The group laughed at Natalie's story and Lauren rolled her eyes as she took another bite of her dinner. It was a few days after the breakfast fiasco and Lauren and Tamsin had agreed to join Bo and Natalie for dinner. It really was the double date from hell according to the Valkyrie but Lauren just told her it would be fine and that she should be happy for Bo and Natalie who were hitting it off quite nicely. After they'd all gone out for dinner a few weeks back Natalie had stuck around and she and Bo seemed to really be happy together although Bo admitted to Lauren that given their past experience as a human/Fae couple that Bo was being much more cautious this time around.

She told Natalie early on about being Fae and what it meant, much against the warning from Trick and Dyson not to. She told them that Natalie was a good person and made her happy and that if she was really going to give it a shot that she didn't want secrets to come between them. Naturally the other human freaked out a bit but after she talked with Lauren who helped her understand, at least on a scientific level, about the Fae, well…she was giving it a go.

Bo had found herself in a real relationship, and more importantly a real human relationship with the other blonde doctor but Lauren was pretty certain she hadn't gone as far as explaining about her feeding patterns etc. with the woman. But, nonetheless, Lauren was happy for Bo and happy for Natalie and happy about how things were right now. Plus, she was elated to have her best friend back in her life and the two women were definitely making up for all the years of friendship they'd lost out on.

Lauren did see the irony of the situation with her being best friends with the person her ex was now dating, who by the way happened to really dislike her current girlfriend. Yeah, lesbian circle 101 for sure. But, they seemed to manage and all parties, with the occasional annoyed dig from Tamsin, seemed to be happy about the arrangement.

"So Tamsin, tell me, is Lauren still OCD like she was before about her house being in a certain order?"

Tamsin and Bo shared a laugh at Lauren's expense and the Valkyrie nodded her head. "Well…I plead the fifth…or whatever it is they say on TV."
The group laughed and Lauren looked over at her with a raised eyebrow. "Good move honey…way to save your own hide."

Tamsin smirked a little as she leaned in to give Lauren a quick kiss. "Last I checked you liked my hide."

Bo made a gagging sound. "Okay thank you for that mental picture."

Natalie laughed and nodded. "Well if I recall correctly, Lewis was always an ass girl."

Lauren glared at Natalie before taking a sip of her wine and huffing a bit. Tamsin and Bo looked at each other curiously before bursting out in laughter. Now that they thought about it, that was one…asset…they both shared and given her relations to both of them it did make sense.

Lauren rolled her eyes as she caught the look that Bo and Tamsin shared and she shook her head at Natalie. "Gee that must explain why we never worked out Nat. You are lacking a bit in that department."

The group laughed again and Natalie tipped her wine glass towards Lauren as if to say 'well played.' She took a sip and nodded to her best friend. "While that may be true for you I happen to like my rear."

Tamsin snickered. "And I'm sure Bo does too."

Lauren rolled her eyes at Tamsin who was giving Bo a knowing look to which Bo took a sip of wine herself before smiling. "I plead the fifth as well."

The group shared a big laugh at that statement and Lauren and Natalie winked at each other. Here they were, two relatively normal humans sharing a meal with their partners who happened to be two of the most powerful Fae out there. Yeah, if you told them about this all those years ago when they were at Yale they would have laughed in your face. But now, as they sat here enjoying the good food and good company they knew things were oddly normal and for once, they were both okay with that.

I think I'm liking Natalie so I will keep her around for a bit. It's nice to have less drama in this story than my other one LOL. Let me know what you thought and thanks for reading!
