~A Week Later, a few days before Christmas~
After everything that had happened with Quinn and I, seeing him now on the road to recovering and feeling complete again, I went in for my normal shift at work after a brief but not solid argument as to why I needed to stay home with him. I lost, he insisted he'd be fine. I was smiling and trying to be as normal as I could. The last few weeks were anything but normal. Between sirens and Victor's lackeys trying to kill everyone...it was pretty much like a non stop action film. Miss Fortenberry was in tonight, alone...which wasn't uncommon but she looked sad. I knew she missed Hoyt, and I knew Jason did too. Ever since the night I glamoured her into not "hating" me because of what I was she was a little bit nicer to me, even if it was an act.
I turned my head to see someone enter the bar and froze in place.
