Fontaine's pov:

------------------

This whole week has been really awkward at work, especially since the hospital. Finn has pretty much ignored me, and I him, so the only time we've talked is about the case.

Today we received information about where the Dark Orca was, and he's been terrorising the nearby areas, so Carla called me into her office.

"You and Finn, are going to the Netherlands, and the dark orca is supposed to be there. You may bring your girls, but you can't take them out of the sub, for their safety." Carla ordered.

I sighed knowing I wouldn't be able to disagree. "How long will this be?"

"Just 5 days." Carla smiled.

I thanked her and grabbed my files, then headed out to the moonstar, and then headed home. I picked up the girls on the way.

"So guys, I have to go on a work trip, and we have to bring Finn. Is that ok?" I asked.

"Yes! I like him he helped you, and he makes me laugh like uncle Ant does!" Bella giggled, flying over to me.

Evie nodded with a smile too.

I frowned, but said nothing. The guest room was still how it was last time he was in there, I couldn't get myself in there to clean it, although I managed to sleep in his bed.

We headed into the sub and did a quick clean up. I put The secret Life of pets on for the girls whilst we waited for Finn. 2 hours later, he finally joined us.

He gave me a smile and quick Hello, and then he bent down to the girls.

"Hey guys! How are you today?" He asked.

"We're good! We're watching The secret Life of pets two! Wanna join?" Bella offered, much to my annoyance.

"Sure!" Finn laughed.

They played for ages, even past dinner, until it was time for the girls to go to sleep. I tucked them into bed and then closed the door, relieved they weren't near him anymore.

Me and Finn then spent some time charting some of the potential routes, just in case.

"Right. We're done now Finn go to bed." I demanded, lookimg at my watch. I had been keeping up the act in case one of the twins came Into the room, but now they were sound asleep, and my emotions were all out of wack.

Finn looked at me and frowned, then walked over.

"Fontaine, are you alright? You're being grumpier than usual."  He asked me, leaning into hug me.

I shoved him away, and rolled my eyes. "And what's that supposed to mean?" I demanded.

"Nothing. C'mon, are you ok?" He looked at me expecting an answer, but I just shook my head and switched off the lights.

I tuned all communications and access to my wristband, and then I went to bed, muttering a simple "goodnight" as I left. I really couldn't bring myself to look at him, but something told me that he definitely wasn't happy.

I headed to my room and got changed, and had a quick shower. My parents had called, but I didn't feel like calling them, so I ignored it. I pulled out my diary and wrote some things down, one of those age old remedies to helping you to relax and come to terms with thoughts.
