Bo's POV

I was still on cloud nine about Lauren saying yes. Today was great. Even with the whole getting the shit beat out of me, I still say today was great. Kenzi came back to where I was sitting and waiting to be discharged. She looked upset and a little nervous. "Kenz are you alright? God do I have to stay here for the night?" I asked feeling defeated. I needed to go home and plan out my date with Lauren. "Um that'll depend on how you take what I'm about to tell you." Kenzi shifted from foot to foot and wouldn't look at me.

"Kenzi, what is going on?" I stood up from the bed and walked over to her. She sighed and looked at me. "Lauren has it worse than we thought," she mumbled, and I felt myself freeze. "What do you mean Kenzi?" My mind was racing with what she could mean. "I ran into Dr Hotpants when I was coming back with your discharge papers and she almost ran right into me cause she had her head down. When she looked up at me… she had been hit in the face Bobo. She had a huge red handprint sized mark on her cheek." Kenzi whispered and I felt my blood run cold.

"I will kill him." I said and grabbed my jacket and started for the door. "NO, Bo you could make it so much worse for her!" Kenzi seemed determined to keep me away from Lachlan. "He hurt her, I-I can't just not do anything!" I yelled loudly and didn't care that people had turned to look at us. "I'm going to talk to her tomorrow," I said firmly. My Succubus was livid. She wanted me to go to Lauren and take her away from here.

How dare he think he could lay his hands on her.

The next day I was feeling much better physically at least. Mentally I was all over the place. I was trying to plan a good place for Lauren and I to dance and the only place that I could think of was this club downtown that wasn't sketchy like a lot of places and there were private booths you could sit in when not dancing. I was still beyond furious about what had happened to her but I was trying to hold myself together for Lauren. I had chosen my outfit which was going to be a pair of black skin tight leggings, a pair of tall boots, a red dress shirt and my trusty black leather jacket. I left my hair down instead of up in a ponytail. Once I was satisfied with my appearance, I headed to the car to go pick her up.

I pulled up to the address she had provided me and it was in Light Fae territory. She was sitting outside when I pulled up and I felt my jaw drop. She was beautiful. She had her hair straightened and she was wearing a pair of dark blue tight jeans, a white button up dress shirt and a pair of dress shoes. Her shirt wasn't completely buttoned up and I felt my whole body being lit up like a Christmas tree. I got out of the car and went to open the passenger door for her.

"You're beautiful," I whispered without thinking and she blushed. She got in the car and I went back to the drivers seat and got in. "Hi," she said and then smiled. I turned to look at her and even with the little bit of makeup she had on I could see the mark on her face. "Lauren." I reached out and traced my index finger around the mark. She turned her head from me. "I'm okay, so where are we going?" She asked trying to change the subject. I decided not to push it for now and just smiled. Even though all I wanted was the confirmation I needed that Lachlan had hit her so I could make him regret ever laying his hands on her.

"We're going dancing," I said and as I said that I had the thought that dancing and being pressed up against Lauren may not be the best thing for my self control ever. I shrugged it off because all I wanted and all I have been thinking about for the last week is her. I pulled into the parking area and stopped the car. "You ready?" I asked and she nodded eagerly. We headed into the club and I put my hand on her lower back so that we didn't get separated. She took one of my hands in hers and led me to the dance floor.

The energy on the dance floor was crazy. Everyone was dancing on top of each other and I could feel the aura of every person. I felt Lauren reach out put her hands on my hips and started swaying back and forth to the music. I wrapped my arms around her waist and pulled her against me. The song changed and became more of an upbeat dance around song and Lauren, and I danced and she looked so carefree and happy that I was determined to make sure she felt that way as often as possible. Lauren came close to me and wrapped her arms around my neck. Holy fuck.

Lauren's POV

I grew bold as I danced with Bo, I could tell she was checking me out the entire time. Her eyes barely left me the entire time we danced. When I wrapped my arms around her neck she yanked me even closer to her and I noticed her eyes had flecks of blue in them. I reached out and touched the side of her face next to her eye. I noticed she closed her eyes and bit her lip. Even with all my knowledge and experience with science and the world as a whole I had never felt the way I did with Bo as she laid her head against my own so our cheeks were pressed together.

"Why can't I get you out of my head?" Bo whispered and tightened her arms around me. Oh my god she didn't just say that. She can't get me out of her head? She feels the same. "You've been stuck in my head as well," I assured her and I felt her tighten her arms around me as the song turned to a slow song. Bo pulled me closer and asked if I wanted to sit down for a little bit and have a drink. I nodded and let her lead me to a somewhat private booth where she asked for two drinks. I went to sit across from her when she shook her head and pointed to the spot next to her.

I slid over to the spot she indicated and she broke out into a huge smile when I sat next to her. "You can most certainly dance Dr Lewis," she said with a twinkle in her eyes. "I've always loved dancing, even when I was in Iraq when I'd have a really rough day I'd play some music and just dance around my barrack until I felt like I could breathe again," I told her this without thinking. I very rarely talked about my time in the Army. Bo touched my arm and pulled me closer to her so that I was pressed against the side of her.

"So you're smart, beautiful, and brave. You are the total package." Bo told me and I could tell she was being serious so I laughed. "I wouldn't go that far," I told her and she shook her head. "I would. You are amazing Lauren, you really are." Bo looked so serious that it made my heart melt. Bo reached out and cupped my not sore cheek in her hand. She leaned in and kissed my cheek that Lachlan had hit the day before. "I want to talk to you about so much honestly. The way you make me feel is different from anybody else before you." She told me this while still holding her hand against my face.

I started to lean in. I want to kiss her. I need to kiss her. When she realized what I was doing she leaned towards me and then of course our drinks arrived. "Hello ladies, here are your drinks. Enjoy!" The waiter enthusiastically placed our drinks on the table and I pulled away from Bo. "Worst timing ever," I heard her mumble next to me. I squeezed her hand and she smiled. "Why don't we try again? I felt my determination come back. I need to kiss Bo. She turned her entire body again so she was sitting directly facing me in the booth. "Kiss me Bo," I told her and she pulled me to her. "I could hurt you," she pulled back a bit and looked so scared. I knew she wouldn't hurt me. I don't know why but I just knew there was no way she would hurt me. "I don't think that you will... I know you won't." I said firmly and saw her eyes glance at my lips and then back up to my eyes. I saw her eyes flash blue and then return to their warm chocolate brown. "Stop me if I hurt you," she said and closed the distance between us.

Our lips crashed against each others and I felt more so than heard Bo moan as she pulled me even closer. I have never had a kiss like this before. She set my entire body on fire and every part of me that was touching her felt electrified. Bo slide a hand to my waist and in one quick motion pulled me onto her lap. Bo is an amazing kisser. Although I shouldn't be surprised considering she is a Succubus. Bo pulled away and moved her lips to my neck and she squeezed my waist. "Bo," I breathed her name out and she pulled back. Her lips were swollen and she had a wild look in her eyes and the biggest smile I have ever seen on her face.

"Who are you Lauren Lewis and where have you been all my life?" Bo asked before capturing my lips in hers again.
