We walk in and Wynonna and Dolls have their backs turned, acting like they're working, but it's way too exaggerated and looks fake.
"So… Nicole, can I talk to you for a moment?" Dolls uses his stern voice and gestures to the office. Nicole's hand leaves mine and she walks away, but she briefly turns to me and smirks.
"So, cupcake, how was lunch?"
"Your subs on the table."
She grabs it and starts eating. I sort of awkwardly lean against the desk and look around, avoiding eye contact.
"So-" she talks with a mouth full. "How's you? Like, in general. You good?"
"Yes?"
She looks at me and frowns for a moment, then she whips her head back to her food and continues.
"Good. That's good..."
The door clicks open and Nicole comes and sits by me.
"So that's the-" Dolls coughs, "progress… report."
Nicole looks at him and Wynonna, then at me. She kisses my ear whispers,
"Ready?"
I exhale and smile.
"Waverley Earp, you are- extraordinary. You have been the highlight of my life and I don't even know if we'd be here if it wasn't for that shorty's tap and I'm so completely in love with you." She hops down and starts to kneel.
"Nicole…" I place our hand on her shoulder and stand. Wynonna nods and Dolls does a sort of half smile.
"Yeah- I mean, yes, yeah, this is what I want!"
"Really? Yeah? Waves!"
She stands up and hugs me and pulls me in for a kiss. We are centimetres away when Wynonna decided to talk.
"Okay, I get the whole mushy speech, but how could you know? Like, Waves, this has been on the down low for ages."
"Nicole wanted to…"
"God dammit!"
"Jesus Wynonna. It's not that big of a deal she was making me more comfortable!"
"No, oh- no it's not that! Dolls!"
"Thank you!" Wynonna hands him a dollar and sighs.
"A dollar if Nicole tells Waverley before hand!"
"Wynonna!" Nicole's grip on my hand tightens and she scowls. I kiss her cheek and she relaxes.
