Tennyson

Tennyson fell asleep on the couch waiting to hear back from Ronan and Captain Fitzgibbon. When he woke up at 6am, he was stiff from sleeping on the sofa and the screen on his phone was still blank. He briefly thought about reaching out to both men, but figured it had been a long night for both of them and didn’t want to wake either of them up.

Being awake and alone gave Ten some time to think about Captain Fitzgibbon and Greeley. He had no idea Ronan’s boss had given any thought to fatherhood or that he was the kind of man who would just offer to take in a kid off the street.

Grabbing a mug out of the cabinet, Ten was about to make a cup of coffee when his cell phone rang. It was Ronan’s picture on the caller ID when he went to pick it up. “Hey there, sexy.”

“Hey, babe!” Ronan’s chipper voice answered.

“Christ, it’s too early in the morning for that cute shit.” Fitzgibbon growled.

“Picked up a hitchhiker?” Tennyson grinned.

“Can you meet us at West Side Sweets? I promised the captain some of Cassie’s kick ass passionfruit muffins and coffee.”

“These muffins had better be out of this fucking world. I got like ten minutes sleep last night.”

“How’s Greeley?” It didn’t bode well if the captain hadn’t slept.

“I’ll tell you all about it when I see you.” Fitzgibbon sounded a tad more chipper.

Ten opened his mouth to ask another question but the line beeped three times and went dead. He guessed Fitzgibbon was not a morning person.

Tennyson dashed into the bakery five minutes later. Thankfully he’d taken a shower the night before and still smelled clean. He found Ronan and Kevin ordering at the counter. “Morning guys. Hi, Cassie.”

“Hey, babe!” Ronan pressed a kiss to Ten’s lips.

“Oh, Christ,” Fitzgibbon muttered.

“Wow, it really must have been a long night, Kevin. I’ve never seen you in this bad of a mood, even when Ronan’s on your last nerve.”

The captain’s frown cracked into a smile. “You might have a small point. I don’t mean to be such a piss-ant, but last night sucked in spades.”

“Why don’t you boys have a seat in the reading room. Cole will be down in a minute and Carson’s gonna be here any second now.” Cassie’s smile was so bright, it was almost blinding.

“I get to meet the whole crew, huh?” He dug his wallet out of the back pocket of his jeans. “How much do I owe you?”

“On the house for Tennyson’s boys.” Cassie started folding a muffin box.

“In that case, throw in half a dozen of those giant mint chocolate chip cookies. I’ve got a friend who could use a little pick-me-up today.”

Cassie smiled and grabbed cups for their coffee orders.

“Who’s the friend, cap?” Ronan asked curiously.

“I’ll tell you when everyone’s here.” Fitzgibbon sounded exhausted.

Tennyson led everyone to the reading room at West Side Magick. His eyes were on Fitzgibbon the whole time, watching his reaction to the shop and the items in it.
