I look in the mirror as I braid my hair down my back, fuck it's nice to be back in uniform. The purple bruising on my neck looks worse than it feels and I wish I could hide it from Chris to stop him feeling guilty, fuck I wish I could take it all away from him, the memories, the nightmares and the pain.
"Chris." I whisper as I walk out of my bathroom to find him in my room
"Adeline." He replies as he wraps his arms around my waist. There's so much to say, but there's no time. I can't tell him how much I've come to care for him, how I want to shed him of his guilt.
I wrap my arms around his shoulders and run my finger through his hair as our lips meet in a slow loving kiss. I'm not going to lie, I put on a front for my team but there is a chance we could die, or be seriously hurt. So I pour everything I have into this last kiss, all the feelings I can't express with words.
"Ma'am drone is in place." Moretti's voice ruins the moment as it comes through my ear piece
"When you're done sucking face Ma'am we're in the bar." Nelli adds and I groan.
"I'll try not to keep you too busy in the infirmary." I smile as I lift my armour over my head and secure it at my side
"Adeline I..."
"Don't." I say as I press my fingers to his lips
"As soon as this is over." I say before pressing my lips to his quickly, picking up my helmet and Bessie and leaving the room.
"Alright listen up." I say as I stand on the bar. I'm impressed to find all the shelves of bottles have been cleared, the furniture has been moved, apart from the tables
"Women and children do not leave this bar, I don't care what happens. We take on fire you duck under these tables. If I give the order to evacuate no matter what happens you make to the nearest exit, get in the van and you go, no looking back." I say looking to all the old ladies with their kids. My original plan was to clear them out a few days early and put them somewhere safe.
"I want to fight." Scarlett pouts
"Well Mike will kill me if you or your baby get hurt, but maybe next time." I smirk
"You've all been given your positions, we move out in five. I want all lights out in the compound." I say turning to the men, I try not to laugh at the bikers with their cuts over their armour. Bikers til they die. I jump off the bar and make my way to the old ladies
"I'm gonna try my best to keep your men safe, but I don't want you running off if your man gets hurt, I need you all in one place."
"You got it, we won't move. Apart from Cordelia obviously, but we've got the kids between us." Izzy smiles.
"Moretti how we looking?" I ask through the comms, I've put him and Circuit in the room they hold church in to monitor the drone and liaise with Mike.
"Good Ma'am. No sign of Tangos yet." I nod
"Move out." I order as the bikers kiss their women and kids. I grab a bag of supplies and make my way to the roof access.
"So you and the Doc huh? What's going on there?" Davis smirks an hour after first getting up to the roof.
"Nothing." I shrug
"Apart from spending every night at his place and fucking on every flat surface in the club house for the past month." Bullet smirks and I give him a death glare
"It's just a fuck buddy situation. No feelings only orgasms." I reply.
"Bullshit. I've seen you with a fuck buddy before and you are not like that with him. I think you like him." Taylor ends on a song and Davis joins in
"You want to kiss him, you want to hold him, you want to fuck him." They sing together
"Enough!" I growl
"See! I don't think I've ever seen her blush before!" Davis laughs.
"Ma'am I've left you a gift." Moore says through the comms coming out of the woods across the street from the clubhouse
"Appreciate it." I smirk as I look down at him. That gift is a line of explosives I can detonate remotely, if they try to take the clubhouse.
The sun has not long set and we still sit and wait, a man on each corner of the roof, I sit back with my eyes closed getting rest while I can, but I could hear a pin drop in the silence.
"Did I tell y'all about them two strippers last night?" Nelli's voice comes through the comms. Whenever we were on a high tension stake out, spending hours just sat there, Nelli would always entertain us with his escapades
"No you did not." I reply
"Well god damn. Angel and.. well shit I can't remember what the other one was called." Nelli says
"Daisy." Needles replies
"That's it, Angel and Daisy. Goddamn those girls should be on WWE the way they play a tag team." He groans as Taylor, Davis and I laugh
"Ma'am requesting a new assignment, pretty sure Nelli is smuggling dynamite in his shorts." Moore replies as we laugh harder. Trust my boys to take the tension out of the situation.
"I would've totally made round three and four if it wasn't for Johnson's sexrobics interrupting us." Nelli adds.
"Aww I saved you from disappointing two women twice? I apologise." I smirk
"Bitch." He replies.
"Y'all remember that mission in Afghan last year?" Davis says
"Yeah I remember the one where Addy
and Mike forgot to turn their comms off?" Moore asks and I gasp
"You fuckers never told me that!" I say, probably turning bright red
"We maintained radio silence, didn't want to kill the mood for you lovers." Taylor smirks
"So you let me believe we were out of range this whole time? How much did you hear?" I question
"Everything." Five voices say as once before cracking up with laughter.
"Well fuck me." I sigh
"That's what she said!" Nelli says creating more laughter.
The hatch opens to reveal Doc climbing up onto the roof. He hands out sandwiches to us all
"What's this?" I ask
"Cordelia can't sit still so she made food for everyone, Moretti is delivering to the rest." He says pointing towards the gym.
"Moretti go tell Cordelia to sit her pretty little pregnant ass down before I get my duct tape out." I say into my comms
"Good luck with that." Killers voice comes over the radio and Bullet laughs
"If they weren't pregnant Cordelia and Scarlett would be up here with us, Hell Indigo too if I hadn't made her stay in the bar." He says shaking his head.
Doc sits down beside me as we eat in silence, I want to talk to him, kiss him, fuck him, anything, but now isn't the time, so I just enjoy his company as I eat my sandwich.
