noahclayton:

“Tatia after all these years, no. But you do live with Lawson so free drinks are always required.”

“You know I wish I could refuse. Good evening, darling -- how are you?” 

[bloodlaaced]

noahclayton:

“You look like you could use a drink. On the house.”

“Is it that obvious?”

[bloodlaaced]

lawsonjones:

Lawson sighed and put his hands on her waist. “It just feels like no matter how much good I do it’s never going to be enough. The killings have started again, and the bar was robbed, Ophelia is a wolf and everything just feels like it’s out of control. I don’t know if I can be both a cop and an Alpha anymore.”

“We would be lost without the good you do. I would be.” Her hands are in his hair, and she’s letting her head rest against his. “I am here.”

[bloodlaaced]

lawsonjones:

Lawson nodded, “Right yup talking it is.”

As if he had spoken the magic words, she’s making herself comfortable once again -- only this time, upon his lap, with her arm hooked around his neck. “I only want to know what is bothering you,” she reassured. “Give me a report.”

[bloodlaaced]

vampirismevans:

“Well, that’s good, that you’re being able to learn by yourself” he smiled at her, it wasn’t really a need per say, after all, he did really learn by himself, but it was definitely something that would have made the learning process a lot easier, that’s for sure. “I hope it continues that way, but I’m sure it will, I’m sure you will be able to fully control it at some point”

“It is going well, and I find pride in all I have achieved. Thank you, Matthew. It is not everyday someone understands just what it means to have fate deal you another hand.”

[bloodlaaced]

lawsonjones:

Lawson groaned and leaned his head back on the couch while he waited for her to come back. All these years and he still hadn’t learned. “Or you know we could make out instead.”

She stood there, a few feet from the couch, wine bottle in hand.

hopemikavlson:

“sorry, but my dad isn’t around at the moment. he has gone off to do some important things outside of town,” she nodded her head before tilting her head curiously, “were you romantically involved with him? i think it is a little unfair that you know who i am and i don’t know who you are.”

“you could not know every soul your father has touched,” was all she could bring herself to say. “my name is tatia. perhaps i should return at a different time.”

[bloodlaaced]

hopemikavlson:

“oh, don’t worry about it. i can always just paint over it,” she nodded her head, giving the woman a warm smile, “sorry but do i know you?”

“no, i can’t say you do. i was actually looking for your father, and became.. somewhat distracted.” with a sheepish smile, she nodded. “i used to watch him paint -- and i’ve been known to fall for nostalgia from time to time.”

[bloodlaaced]

hopemikavlson:

painting had always been something that helped hope keep in control of her emotions and in turn her magic but also as an escape from the reality of the real world. the red head hadn’t noticed the person standing behind her until it was too late and she jumped in fright, causing a line through her painting, “bloody hell, next time, please refrain from trying to give me a heart attack,” she spoke kindly, removing her headphones.

“oh, love,” the witch mused apologetically. “i didn’t mean to frighten you.” and as her gaze fell on the canvas once more, a frown etched deep into her features at the sight of the unintentional line. “i’m so sorry. i’ve messed you up.”

[bloodlaaced]

lawsonjones:

Lawson laughed started to dial the number for the restaurant “Yes. Wine is a must. Especially after the day I had. Sometimes I wonder if being a cop does any good at all.”

Tatia nods, wiggling out from the embrace. “Then I will retrieve it now, and you can tell me all about it.” She only offered him a challenging look as he deprecated himself, however, indicating she would be on him about that when she got back.

[bloodlaaced]

vampirismevans:

“You should, or not, depending whether you need help, I would have liked someone’s help to learn how to control myself”  he said honestly, he was able to learn by himself, but he still wished that he had time, would have come in handy a lot. He let out a laugh with her next words. “Just being a good friend, and trying to motivate you”

“Your needs surpass mine,” she pointed out. “I was a little destructive at first, but I’ve managed to keep myself from harming people. Help is needed more elsewhere.” She didn’t know what it took to be a vampire, and she hoped she never would, as it used to be a source of fear for her -- but after accepting the supernatural into her life, it became part of it.

lawsonjones:

Lawson chuckled, “You love teasing me don’t you? 18 years and that’s never going to get old for you.” He leaned back onto the couch and sighed. He was getting old. “I’ll make pancakes in the morning. All you can eat. For now what are you feeling, Indian?”

“It’s fun to see just how long,” came her response. “Indian sounds lovely. Should I pick out some wine?”

[bloodlaaced]

lawsonjones:

“Mr. Jones, huh? So that’s how it is tonight.” He leaned in and kissed her quickly before leaning forward and grabbing the phone. “Are you hungry? I’m saying we order in tonight. All these years and I still only know how to cook pancakes. I am a failure.”

“If it continues to get a rise out of you, yes, I would say it is.” Her curious eyes follow his movements, but the reveal was sweet. “Starving. And you know I love those pancakes.”

[bloodlaaced]

lawsonjones:

“I don’t know what I did to deserve you but I’m not going to look a gift horse in the mouth.” People told him all the time he was crazy. She’d been by his side for over 18 years and he still hadn’t married her. Most girls would have left a long time ago but she was still here.·“I love you.”

“You flatter me, Mr. Jones.” It was a whole different story for her. She was a stranger in a strange land -- lost and afraid, alone, and she found him. It shook her to think of missing out on that sliver of a chance. “I love you.”·

[bloodlaaced]

lawsonjones:

Lawson laughed, “Are you kidding me? I was a total mess. Ophelia had just started dating Noah, found out about the whole wolf thing, and I was a new wolf. I was barely holding it together until you walked into my life.” He smiled and kissed her. “But I am glad you think so highly of me.”

“Your life may have felt like a disaster, but you,” she said before stealing a kiss for herself, “are not.” Her hand is on his neck, the tips of her fingers in his hair. “You’re amazing.”

[bloodlaaced]

lawsonjones:

Lawson laughed and wrapped an arm around her, pulling her closer. “If you say so. Honestly I think without you I’d be a disaster.”

“You didn’t seem like a disaster to me when we first met,” she added softly as she let herself get comfortable against his form. “But perhaps that is my own biased opinion.”

[bloodlaaced]

lawsonjones:

Lawson raised an eyebrow, “Is that your own biased opinion?”

“It is a fact, thank you very much,” she teased, arm moving to bump his.
