Flee the Nest

Bree held her breath,  afraid to speak,  she couldn't  take it back now.

Han smirked and ruffled her hair.

"well, it's about time. I was getting  desperate - that wouldn't have been the best look" he said.

Bree blinked "wait, you knew!" she stammered.

Han smiled sheepishly.

She smacked his arm "you could have  said something!  Letting  me run around  paranoid and confused and-"

Han silenced her with a kiss. "Raquel... Just stop" he murmured. Pulling  away he grasped her hands leaning  his forehead  to hers.

"things won't be  easy,  just so you know. " Han  sighed opening his eyes to peer at her.

Bree 's eyes searched his with questions  unvoiced.

"I've got  some loose ends I need to tie up... And then"

Bree held her breath  as he paused. A playful smile playing  across  his face.

"run away with me Raquel" he said.

Bree started to laugh,  but at his silence  she stopped.

"my god you're  serious?  Where too and why? This is were we belong. You  said this  was your Mexico - to where can you  run? " Bree asked.

"home, with you with me.  Returning  won't  hurt.  Besides I've  got a way to cover my tracks." he said seemingly  confident.

Bree flicked his forehead gently  "um no, have you forgotten?  Nobody just quits from the Yakuza." she said. Hanging rubbed her shoulders and kept  his smile.

"trust me okay, is the  first  tight spot I've gotten myself into or the last" he said.

Bree frowned still unconvinced and unsure about  leaving  all she knew.

"look its not like it's going to  happen  tomorrow or even this week. So don't worry about it  yet" Han was as calm as he ever was and all Bree could  do was sigh.

"right, alright" she said cracking a smile.

Hanging returned it and stroked her hair.  "now let's get you home before pops throws a fit" he said.

Bree watched him head for his car and crossed  her arms.

"what that's it?  I don't  get dinner and a date?" she joked.  Han turned back to look at her a flirtatious  glint in his eye.

"hey, be glad I'm not taking you straight to my place. That alone should be  gentlemanly  enough" he said giving her body a once over with his eyes.

Bree blushed and then glared lightly.  "pervert" she muttered heading to her car.  "not anymore,  I've got  your pink slip now" he teased.

Bree sighed,  she was happy  but he'd  never let this day go.

As she got into her car Han called out to her.

"you won mine too,  I think it's a  fair trade,yeah?" he called.

Bree looked at him with a soft gaze and nodded "yeah" she said.

The two got into  their cars and headed for Bree 's home.

As Bree and Han pulled up to the curb across from her house, she spotted Dk heading  for Sean as he and their Dad stood out by the homes small  garage.

"oh no" Bree whispered, hopping out of her car she jogged across the street  and stood between  Sean and Dk. 

"wait - it's not Sean's fault" Bree said slowly.  Dk leered down at her before casting  his eyes to Sean.
