After the Mercs left on Sunday night to head back to Ironhide's place with him and Asteroid, Finn and I laid in bed for hours without talking. I know he's not okay with what I said, but I think he understands. At least, I hope he does. Yesterday, I went to the gym and trained with Ironhide for the entire day. I'm pretty sure Finn only let me go because he put two of the prospects on my ass as bodyguards. I'm not complaining, though. Chad and Adonis aren't that bad. Though Ironhide tried to get Chad in the ring with me and he absolutely refused. After that, we went to see Big Ma and had dinner, this time knowing the Mercs were watching, and we're pretty sure they followed us when we finally went and bought me some clothes.

It wasn't something I could put off anymore considering I'm going to Tasmin's school for the picnic this morning with Claddagh, who I still slip up and call Bradan more often than I should. I'm surprised he doesn't have an ol' lady yet, but as far as I can tell, dating is the last thing on his mind. Single parenting takes up most of his time when he isn't managing Archangel Ink, the tattoo shop he owns in town.

Finn is sitting on the bed when I come out of the bathroom in a pair of dark jeans and a long sleeve v-neck shirt. I put my hair in a high ponytail, but wearing make-up again isn't something I think I'm going to go back to like I did in high school. I'm so used to not wearing it, that I honestly can't image spending hours putting all that shit on again.

"Does this look okay?"

He looks up at me and smiles. "Yes. You look beautiful, mot. Stop worrying so much. It's a picnic with a Kindergarten class."

Smiling at him, I shake my head. "Yeah, well, I still need to look like a well-respected adult."

He laughs and gets up, taking my hand and walking me to the main room. Claddagh and Tasmin are sitting at one of the booths, and I'm surprised to see Motormouth sitting across from them, playing with my nephew and his toy cars.

"Contract killer playing with Hot Wheels," Finn says as we walk over. "Now I have seen it all."

"Yeah, well, I happen to have a kid of my own. Though, she used to prefer Barbies and dolls over toy cars," Motormouth says, setting the toys down and ruffling Tasmin's hair with a smile.

She stands and nods to us before heading over to the bar where Ironhide is sitting with her friends. Claddagh watches her the entire way. After a minute, he finally looks up at me with a smile. "You ready to go?"

I return the smile and give Finn a kiss goodbye before following Claddagh and Tasmin out to his SUV. Getting in the front, I turn in my seat and watch as he buckles his son into his booster seat.
