Harlow

I had a good day, playing with Micah, and visiting with my friends, but I’m kind of annoyed that no one would let me be part of any decisions about taking down Mando. It’s me and Bodhi who are being threatened, but when I brought that up to Reina, she just told me to be patient, and that they’d get me when they needed me. X was deep in conversation with Scott and Ainsley, so I didn’t drag him into my fight, but I was really tempted to. Not my most mature moment, which is why I’m glad I didn’t give in.

In the end, I told Reina I wanted to go home, and she had Aiden escort me back. He tried to make me feel better, and get me to laugh, but I just wasn’t in the mood. The only thing that’ll make me feel better is having Bodhi’s arms around me, although when I walk into his studio, I realize he may need me more than I need him right now.

I catch him as he stumbles, easing him back onto the stool he tried to stand up from a moment ago. “Easy there, Bo.”

“Sorry.”

“Are you hurt?” I ask, looking him over. He has paint everywhere, and while it’s hot, it’s also got me worried.

“A little stiff and sore, but not hurt.”

I look behind me, and see the painting he must’ve been working on. It’s totally cool, and I’m a little sad it’s not of me, because it’s that good. “You did this today?”

“Yeah. The client gave me the freedom to do what I wanted, and an idea hit.”

“I’ll say. It’s amazing.”

“I’m glad you think so.”

“I kind of wish there was one of me like that.”

“In that case, there will be.”

“You don’t have to.”

“You know I love to paint you.”

“I’m pretty sure everyone knows that.”

“Then you should know I’d love to do an abstract of you.”

“Okay.”

His stomach rumbles, and he groans. “Sorry.”

“Did you eat?”

“No. That’s what I was going to do when you found me.”

“You sat here and just got lost in your painting?”

“Exactly.”

I look him over. “Food first, then you’ll have to let me know how to get this paint off you, and I’ll massage your sore muscles.”

“You’re too amazing for me.”

“I think we’re about even, but we’ll discuss that another time. Right now, I’m going to make you a sandwich.”

“Thanks, Low.”

“You’re welcome.”

I fix him two sandwiches, and grab chips and a bottle of water before heading back into the studio. He’s standing now, bending his knees up and down, and swinging his arms around. When he sees me, he moves to the couch and sits down, patting the spot next to him.

“These looks delicious.”

“They’re just sandwiches.”

“You made them, so they’re not ‘just’ anything.”

“Stop trying to charm the pants off me when you can barely stand.”

“I don’t need to be standing to do what I want to do to you.”

“Eat your sandwiches.”

“Only because I’m starving.”

“Whatever it takes.”

I watch him eat, stealing a few chips because I didn’t eat much today, either.
