From the faceless legend, to a friend, now to a...lover?boyfriend? Sarah wasn't really sure but she knew that he wanted to be with her just like she wanted to be with him; and that made her unbelievably happy. She was so happy with the recent development that she had trouble holding back her smile as she walked through GNR.
She had had to leave his room because she had to go over the transferring of soldiers that would get stationed at GNR, as well as signing off on the supply transfer. She also had to talk to Three Dog which she had hoped to put off until tomorrow and rushed off back towards Leo's room but she ran into the disk jockey in the hallway just as she was about to turn the corner near Leo's room in the medical section and couldn't get away without being rude. He was nice and everything but, he was a bit of a lady's man and with her being a rather attractive female meant that when they talked he often tried to flirt with her.
Before it had been sort of flattering and harmless so she let him go as long as he didn't go too far with anything but now that she had Leo she was't really sure how to handle it. She wondered slightly how he would react if he saw this...probably not well.
"Well hello! if it isn't the most beautiful Sentinel this side of the Capital wasteland." She let out an internal groan when she smelled the alcohol on his breath as he continued. "Here I was thinking it was the end of the good old GNR and then the Lyons' Pride comes busting through with you at the lead, in all your glory, come to slay the monsters that had come to storm the castle."
"Its no problem Three Dog, we were just doing what we usually do so it's nothing to make a big deal out of." she said trying to back away slowly towards the medical section hoping he would drop the conversation. He didn't.
"Oh come now Miss Lyons don't be so modest, I was thinking of doing a whole story on the event; and I would love to get an exclusive interview with the beautiful leader. Are you interested my dear?" He said moving closer as she backed up until her back hit the wall right next to the corner and he stood in front of her leaving her without an easy escape.
'Not like he is really much of a threat but if I beat him to a pulp the council would be pretty mad since the Brotherhood really needs a presence here' she thought to herself before responding. "No, I can't say I am. I have never been one to be the center of attention, you should find Paladin Captain Vargas I think he would be all over that interview."
"Oh but I don't want him all over dear, I want You all over Me." He said as he reach towards her. She was still not sure what to do besides give a strong right hook and say he drank to much and fell. However she didn't have to do that because a hand reached around the corner and gripped his neck then pinned him against the opposite wall of the hallway. Leo was massive compared to the disk jockey and easily was holding him by his neck against the wall while his feet dangled in the air.
'Shit, this might get bad.' Sarah thought as she heard Leo start to talk to Three Dog.
"Who exactly are you and what were you trying to do to her?" Leo said with his voice as cold as ice from behind his mask.
Three dog sputtered out, "I'm Three Dog, I run this place and I didn't mean any offense; I didn't know she was your girlfriend."
"We aren't like that Three Dog he is just a friend but he is...uh, protective of his friends and doesn't know you so just apologize and he will let you down right Leo?" Sarah said as she grasped Leo's other arm and trying to pull him away, which was like trying to move a mountain.
"Of course, I am sorry, I had a little too much to drink tonight. I would never try to harm the Lone Wanderer's friend; hell, me and your old man are friends, why would I do anything bad to a friend of yours?" Three Dog said looking nervous.
