"Listen (F/n)," Bigby began as he took a drag from his cigarette."I don't want you to get hurt. I've already lost Snow and I couldn't stand to lose you." He admitted looking away and glaring at a near Fable as they walked by and glanced at you out of the corner of their eye, before quickly picking up the pace noticing Bigby.
"You see what I mean?" He whispered until the Fable got out of sight and hearing before returning back to his normal tone. "This town is mostly occupied by us Fables. It's dangerous for a Mundie like you to be involoved in a case like this. You can't protect yourself against a Fable. What if someone like me was to come and try to hurt you?" He lectured you. You puffed up and shot a glare at the so called 'big bad wolf' and then opened your mouth.

"Simple. Pepper Spray and a swift kick to the balls and someone like you would be down in a second." You smirked as he tossed the cigerette somewhere, landing it on a puddle near by the sidewalk ,you two were standing on it, as it exstinguished, sinking deeper in the puddle.
"That might work but how long do you really think that would last on a Fable. Like you have seen before (during the fight I saw between Bigby and the Woodsman.I was outside of the apartment as it happened), we are fast healers " He explained. "Please do not argue with me (F/n). I just want you to be safe."
You looked at Bigby and his big brown eyes.
'Crap'You thought. 'He's doing it again.' Blushing slightly you gave in.
"Alright, alright." You groaned and glared at the brown haired man. "Where exactly should I go that you assume is safe?" You asked, as he let out a sigh of relief and relaxed a bit.
"I hate to say it but go to Crane's Office, Crane said he was going to be gone till tomorrow. Go keep Bufkin company and I will get you as soon as I am finished here." He said as you shot him a look, Bigby raised a hairy eyebrow and frowned.
"So the flying monkey is my babysitter." You growled as he cracked a smile.
"More like your both watching each other. Make sure he doesn't get drunk get drunk." He said as he ruffled you hair as you let out a annoyed sigh.
"Now go." He said as you turned and went to Crane.

(Time Skip!)

"Nice to see you Miss (F/n). How are you this evening?" Bufkin greeted you as you walked in, gently shutting the door and then looking over at him with one of Crane's expensive wine he had purchased. Raising an eyebrow at the guilty looking monkey, he cracked a weak smile a you and tried to hide the wine bottle behind his back. "I won't tell." You smile, as he grinned and continued drinking as you walked over  with all the Fable books, papers and files over it and sat down. Looking over the pictures of almost all the Fables you spotted Bigby in his real form. Tracing you index finger over it you smiled to yourself and looked over at Snow White. She stood there with all 7 of her demonic looking dwarves."There eyes get me every time." Bufkin said as he looked over at your shoulder at the book before taking a swig of wine, straight from the bottle.
"I miss her already." Bufkin admitted sighing and looking away from the book."It appears Bigby does too." You glared at her image before letting your eyes travel back up to Bigby and the Woodsman."They were close." The mirror suddenly joined in as you shot a glare at the mirror."I thought you refused to come to life unless someone said the rhyme.""That hurt." The mirror smirked before disappearing. You rolled your eyes and returned back to the book, now focused on Donkeyskin.

"It's a shame what happened to her." You looked up and see Crane looking down at the book as well. Jumping out of the wooden chair you stared at him in surprise. He look at you in a bored manner and then bac down at the book.
"I'm surprised to see you here, Miss (F/n)." He spoke as he shut the book and left it laying on the table as he walked up to the mirror.
"I am guessing Bigby is here somewhere?" He asked looking around the room.
"No he made me come here and stay." You huffed as Crane smiled to himself.
"So now he's becoming paranoid ." Crane smiled to himself as he shook his head, walking over to his desk and sitting down on the leather chair, leaning back as he let out a relaxed sigh.
"Paranoid?" You asked a Crane let out a chuckle.
"Yes, your all he has now, and if I was in Bigby's spot right now I would be doing the same thing that he is doing right now." He poorly explained as you cocked a eyebrow and put you hands on your hips.
"Oh and what's that." You frowned.
"Making sure your out of harm's way. I actually can't believe I'm saying this but I am now, but Bigby cares about you young lady." He frowned and you looked over at his desk.
"Oh"
You looked around and then over at Snow's desk. Seeing her perfume on it and frowning.
"Mr. Crane?" You asked.
"Yes?" He let out an annoyed sigh.
"Do you miss Snow?"
He looked up at you. Eyes widening and mouth opened slightly, before regaining his composure and sadly looked over at her desk.
"Yes." He frowned. "Yes I do. Miss. Snow and I were...Close."
You could tell by looking at Crane that you struck a nerve.
