Dart wakes up early and looks at the beautiful woman next to him. Her hair is a mess and her cheeks are still red. She is laying on her side, curled up and her tummy and back are bare. He smiles and touches her side softly. She moves a little and he lays his hand on her lower back, pulling her close to him. He buries his nose in her hair and takes in her scent, stroking her back softly. He feels her lips on his chest as she mumbles: "Morning." 

He kisses her forehead and says: "Good morning, love of my life." Jo smiles slightly, still half asleep. Dart asks: "Coffee?" 

Jo looks up at him and says in her sleepy voice: "Please." Dart gets up to make coffee and when he walks back into the bedroom, Jo is sitting up, rubbing her eyes. Dart sits down next to her at the edge of the bed and hands her a mug. Jo smells the coffee first and then takes a few sips. She looks at him and says: "Thank you." 

Dart smiles at her and says: "No need to thank me. It's my pleasure, love." 

Jo smiles and asks: "I fell asleep while Kane was still here, didn't I?" 

Dart nods and says: "Don't worry about it. He didn't mind and neither did I. It was a pretty emotional night." 

Jo sips her coffee and says: "Yes it sure was. I didn't mind talking about it or hearing it all though. It made me even more sure about us, if that's even possible." 

Dart smiles and says: "Yeah. I was worried about it beforehand, but it ended up making me feel very relaxed about us and our future." 

Jo smiles and gets up. "I better get dressed soon. Don't want to be late for work again."She looks in the mirror and says: "But I need to shower first. My hair is a mess." 

Dart chuckles and winks at her. "Want some help with that?" Jo winks at him and undresses on the way to the bathroom.


They end up showering together and Dart brushes and braids her hair into two braids. Jo smiles at him through the mirror and he kisses her neck. Jo puts on distressed hot pants and matches it with a dark grey halter top with a red anarchy symbol on it. She wears the boots with the red laces in it and fishnet stockings with rips in it. She winks at herself in the mirror and goes all punk on her make-up. Safety pins in her ears and a fake piercing in her nose to finish off the look. She walks into the kitchen and Dart almost drops his mug on the floor when he sees her. "Oh hell Jo!" 

Jo laughs and asks him all innocent: "What?" 

"Yeah pretend like you don't know. I might have something to finish off that look though." He opens a drawer and pulls out a wristband with the anarchy symbol on it. 

He hands it to Jo and she asks: "Is this yours?" 

Dart grins at her and says: "Diana and Tom's runway show might not have been the first time I looked like that." 

Jo's jaw drops and she stares at him. "I sure hope there are pictures of that somewhere. If I get to see them, I will show you pictures where my hair had outrageous colors." Now Dart's the one in shock. She puts on the wristband and sticks her tongue out at him. "You're not the only one with secrets mister." She laughs and grabs a slice of bread and chews on it as she gathers her things to take with her to work. 

Dart smiles at her and says: "We have to talk about that part of our history soon. I want to know all about it." Jo nods and swallows the last piece of bread. She asks Dart for help with her picture this morning and she poses on the steps of the porch, sticking her tongue out and looking very fierce. Dart chuckles and shows her the picture. 

Jo smiles and says: "Perfect! I love this one." She posts it online and adds the text: Be you! Who cares what others think! Jo kisses Dart and says: "I'm off! Have a good day at the gym and come see me when you can."
