Finley groaned as he woke, it had been a long night at the Gala. He couldn't remember much through the whiskey fog that permeated his skull. What he did kow though, was when he opened his eyes, and saw the dress in a pile with his own suit, that at least part of it, hadn't been a dream. Shifting to his side, he smiled, seeing the mop of red hair, and the freckled pale skin. Gently he pulled her into hi arms, and kissed her shoulder, and neck. Looking down, he raised an eyebrow, seeing her disheveled bra, that had exposed her breasts. Apparently they had been quite excited in their passion to discover each other. Gently though, he pulled the red and black lace up, covering her, but not before giving each of her breasts a gentle, playful squeeze. Brushing the hair from her face, Finley kissed her cheek, and whispered in her ear gently, "Wake up, Kyra... We have plans."
Hearing her groan, and push at him, Finley cocked an eyebrow, "Either wake up, or I amn going to get Ana, and have her put you in a dress permanently." A louder groan this time, but nothing. Sighing, he slipped from the bed and got dressed, before returning. Sitting next to her, Finley leaned down, and his lips met hers. His togue found hers, as it searched her mouth, caressing her tongue and lips. The taste of whiskey permeated her, and Fin pulled back. "Kyra, last chance." a swat, and Finley grabbed a glass of water. With a sigh he shrugged, "Warned ya, Love."
THe glass upended, and he watched her shot up. Catching her fist, hi mouth captured hers, his hands locked on her wrists. Breaking the kiss, he smirked, "Morning."

Last night... my god last night was like something out of a fairy tale. She got herself put in a dress with her hair and makeup all done up and she was held and kissed and danced what felt like all night. Sure she had to come to terms with some rather heavy things, but she did sort of and she had Fin to thank, who held her and told her it would be okay. The last thing she remember from last night was running through the rain back to the underground. The rain making her skin feel like the surface of an icy lake, but then everytime Fin touched her or kissed her out there in the rain her skin was little up with that same feeling of electricity running through her body again.
And then it was just sort of dark, but she knew she was warm and safe. Wrapped up in arms that made her feel so much better last night, it was the first time she's been touched by a man in a way that didn't make her super jumpy and itching to kick and throw as many punches as she could. Nope not this time, this was nice and safe and she didn't want to get up.
She felt his hands over her body again, kisses and gentle squeezing. She smiled some but also groaned and pulled up the blankets some. "Few more minutes..." She whispered, followed by lips on hers, then tongue on tongue and she playfully hit him. Silly man trying to get her up, why couldn't he just let her...
SPLASH!
A half full glass of water was dumped on her head which made her gasp and sit right up and she moved to throw a rather hard punch but Fin had caught both her wrist and kissed her again. A look of exasperation and anger came into her eyes even as he kissed her, she did not appreciate her rather rude wake up call. That been said his smirk was able to break the frown on her face and she found herself starting to crack and smile. "Morning..."

Releasing Kyras wrists, Finley smiled, and pulled her up into a sitting position, gently brushing the wet hair from her face. The smile faded from his face though, this moment between, it wouldn't last, not today. Quietly he slid off the bed, and raised an eyebrow, Finley seeing her underwear for the first time really. Well, at least he could savor this, before he ruined it. "Well... I suppose you don't want to wear Anas dress out there?" Walking to his small closet, he drew out a pair of pants, and a button down shirt, along with a worn vest. "That work?" He asked, and frowned, "As for shoes... I don't have any that would fit you.... sorry, love."
Watching her for a moment as she dressed, Fin went to his dresser, and picked up his pocket watch. Picking up a tie, he stared at it, then dropped it back on his dresser, and pulled his cap on instead. "We found a beautiful spot for him...at least in my opinion."

He finally her go of her wrist and she sighed, gentle hands came up and brushed back her wet hair as she found herself leaning in for a tender kiss. It was hard to think that she would ever get sick of kissing this man or not having his arms around her as she slept, amazing how one night could change so much but now... well here comes the part she was dreading. When she stripped back down to what she is; a plain woman in man's clothes. Fin got up and she could feel eyes lingering on her body which made her blush. You would never know because she hides it but her body consisted of soft curves, pale skin covered he a sweet smattering of freckles and pure. Still untouched by any man and the way Fin looked at her filled her with more ideas than she cared to admit.
He toss her a set of clothes which were a little bit too big, but with the addition of a belt she made everything fit. The shoes though... She made a face and thought for a second then smiled and said. "Well I think my shoes are still down in Ana's dressing room so it will be okay." He then mention how lovely the spot was and she looked down with a nod. "Well... it's lovely because he's there." This was going to be hard wasn't it? It alright felt like time was speeding up and pulling her towards this moment she wasn't sure she wanted anymore.
No she had to, she had to see him one last time and have this closure. It would bring her peace of mind... at least she hoped it would. Please god let it give her closure. "Thank you by the way. For everything... last night, and this morning and now."

Watching Kyra, he saw the sadness in her eyes, and, his hand hooked the belt she was wearing, and he pulled her into his arms. He didn't say anything, just held her, and kissed the top of her head. "He'll be glad to have you there." Stroking her wet hair, Finely kissed her cheek, and turned her towards the door. "Go get your shoes, and come back up."
While he waited, Finley picked up Anas dress and folded it, before he quietly sat on the bed, and picked up 5he pillow she had used. Starin at the object, Finley smiled, seeing a few wet spots from the watet. What was this? Why was he so just, awestruck by her? She was just amazing, tough as nails, and crazy to go with it. But seeing her in that dress, and the way she had blushed, or he had fallen hard.

He had reached for the belt she was trying to put on and hooked it all up for her before pulling her into his arms and she let out a sigh. Kyra's eyes fell close as she just let the warmth from Fin's body engulfed her's. There was something that made her feel almost protected when he held her, the kiss on the top of her head was placed there for comfort her and the gentle stroking of her hair just reminding her that he would always be there for her no matter what. "Yeah alright, I'll be quick." She said as he kissed her cheek and she blushed again. "Um yeah be back."
She finally pulled herself away from him and headed down the stairs and into Ana's dressing room, finding that it was a mess from her getting her ready last night and her clothes were still there and she could have put those on but they were a mess and there was something that was just sort of nice about being in Fin's clothes. She did find her shoes though and her hat which she was about to tuck all her hair up and into like normal when...
"Why do you hide that pretty hair of yours love?"
Oh... oh right he liked when her hair was down. Why did she suddenly care that Fin liked it when her hair was down? Was it because some small part of her still wanted to be pretty for him, even if she didn't really know how. Maybe keeping her hair down was a start? God who fucking knew at this point. She did put her hat back on, but didn't tuck her hair up and away. Kyra looked in the mirror and made a face, hopefully now that everything was back to normal he would still think she was something worth having.
She headed back upstairs and found Fin still in his room, sitting on her bed holding the pillow she had been sleeping on that night and she made a face. "Uhh so, I don't know much about... this but I think you be better off holding me and not the pillow." She said with a playful smile before walking over to him. "Ready to go?"

His hands squeezed the pullow, and he brought it to his face, inhaling the scent she had left on the object. This feeling he had, it was no stranger to him, he had felt it before. In france, with a he had thought he would love forever. That was until she had refused to move him with him due to his sister. That would never happend though, Finley would never leavery Maureen alone.
When Kyra came in, Finley smirked as she walked up, and the pillow left his hands. His hand shoshot out, and snatched Kyra's. With a jerk she was on top of hik, and he was on his back, smiling. "You're right, much better." He joked, before kissing her neck, and sstanding.
In a heartbeat they were standing on a hill with a clearing all around. A single gravestone looked out over the entirety of the valley that held the tow. Looking to Kyra, Finlet let go of her and and smiled, "so here it is... Hope it is acceptabl...

She was pulled back into his arms which made her smile as he kissed her head. "I couldn't agree more." She said softly closing her eyes. Couldn't she just stay right here? Where there was no demons to face and she was in the arms of a man that made her feel... Oh god she could spend hours listing off all the ways Fin made her feel and it still wouldn't be enough time. And to think when she first met him she didn't think anything of him, in fact she was quite ready to kill him for thinking he was going to have to "hold her hand" during the time they spent working together. Of course now they were...
Well she didn't exactly know what they were but she liked it alot. And she liked him alot alot... So...
So now they had apparated to the top of of a hill and there it was. Her brother's grave. She swallowed hard and let out a shaky breath as she let go of Fin and looked down at the headstone. Walking over to it, her fingers ran over the top of it as she took a seat next to it and nodded. The grass was wet and stinking to her pants but she didn't really care. She just needed to do this. "It's lovely thank you..." She said softly with a smile before it faded and her eyes started to fill with tears.
"He use to call me Ladybug... Sometimes I wonder if he know how much I loved it when he called me that. Because... because it's hard for someone like me to feel loved or speical or even wanted. I don't have a place in normal society but he always made sure I had a place at home." She said getting choked up with tears as a few rolled down her cheeks. "I can still remember the way his voice sounded when he use to walk down the streets calling out for me... Ladybug get your ass over here before you catch your death. Because I always use to stay out in the rain for too long doing god knows what. And he would always drag me back inside and clean me back up and tell me what a nightmare I was before sending me off with tea and some bread."

Finly watched as Kyra broke down, and in that instant wearing pain shot through his chest. Had this been what it was like for Maureen? Had she lived this way everyday for four years while he was gone? Had his sweet angel been consume by fear and doubt of his love for her that entire time. Watching Kyra left Finley shaky and unsteady on his feet. Was this why his parents hated him so? Because he left them feeling empty and unloved. Is this what his choices had down to his family? It had never really struck him just how selfish he had been until this point. Watching Kyra grieve for her dead brother. it was both sobering, and enlightening.
AS she explained the type of person Gawain was, Finley sank to the ground next to her, and pulled her against his chest. He listened quietly as she told of her brother, and the type of person he was to her. It made him smile, thinking of him and Maureen. Kissing Kyra's cheek, Finley smiled, "You are a nightmare, Kyra. A wonderfully beautiful, deadly nightmare." He whispered to her, "And to me, you're perfect."
Finley sat in silence after that, imply holding Kyra as she stared at her brothers grave. "Gawain loved you very much, all of you." Finley whispered quietly to her, "If he was anything like me, and he was far better than I. Gawain loved you, so much."

"And you know the worst part... I did put him through hell." She said swallowing hard and looking down at her hand which were folded in her lap. Her thumb running over the palms of her hands and she closed her eyes to try and stop her tears. "I was a nightmare and I did put him through hell and I never really... I didn't ever appreciate what it was he did for me and us... If I knew about this I would have..." She got all choked up on her tears and then felt herself being pulled against Fin's chest and the second she felt his arms around her she lost it again. And she didn't mean to and part of her hated herself for it but...
Her cheeks were cupped and kissed, and that got her to open her eyes as she looked at him and swallowed. She was perfect to him? Really he wasn't just saying that to make her feel better? She made she to study his eyes and she saw nothing but honesty and the truth and it made her heart swell. So he really thought she was perfect. With or without the dress, and a perfect little nightmare. This was... that was...
There was now just silence as she sat there being held by him and as Finely spoke of how much she was loved by her brother Kyra nodded and smiled some. "I know... And thank you so much for this Fin. It meant the world to me that you would take me up there." She said softly before pulling away for a second and pulling out her wand. With a wave a single branch of a Carnation bush appeared on the grave, all a line with those perfect tiny blue flowers.
"He wasn't a flower person but Carnation are my favourite. Sort of the one girly thing about me I guess." She said with a small laugh wipping what was left of the tears off her face and standing up. "I think we can go now..."

The silence was nice, as the sun rose and burned through the fog in the valley. Finley just held the redhead in his arms, occaionally kissing her cheek or forehead. It was hard to lose someone you loved, he knew that. Which was why he would not say anything to Kyra now. He had no more words that would comfort her, he could not offer any sage advice to this oddly wonderful woman. Instead he held her, and whispered encouragingly to her. Softly he raised her head for a moment and gave her a quick peck on the lips.
"They are beautiful flowers, Kyra. He would live the because they came from you. Not anyone else." Gently he pulled her to him "You are amazing, Kyra. Gawain, loved you because of it, and so do I."
Finley hesitated, before smiling sheepishly. He had just said he loved her, 'Fuck, fuck...' The cat was out of the bag now, and he couldn't hide it. Seeing the look in her eyes he exhaled, "Yeeeeeeeah....."[/font]

"Yeah they're my favourite. They are kind of cheap flowers but you know... They are the flowers I grew up getting for my mom on the rare chance I could get flowers." She said with a smile and pressing her hand to her lips and then to the top of the headstone before going back to Fin. He was quick to wrap his arms around her again and she smiled and kissed him gently. She blushed when he said she was amazing and shook her head about to retort when...
Gawain, loved you because of it, and so do I."
She couldn't help the wide eyed doughy look that came to her face. He loved her? Oh my god did he love her? But... no men don't love her! She was unloveable, unmarriageable even. But here Fin was saying that he loved her. This sweet man who cared loads about his family, who was loyal and good and valued everything she valued as well as far as hard work and fighting... He loved her. No no he deserved way more than anything she could give him. He deserved the perfect wife who would be there every night to cook and clean and have lots of babies and not one who chased dragons and fights and still had terrible bouts of shell shock when it has come to some of the things she has done...
But this was Fin, and he would not say something if it wasn't true. So he had to love her but... that didn't mean he should. "You really love me?" She asked before swallowing and looking down. "Fin I..." She wanted to say it back, god she wanted to so badly but once she did she would be hooked and that would be it. And again... he needed so much more than just her. "I want to say it back I do. But I'm not the sort of woman you want to love. I'm me... I'm not loveable material..."

Finley's face was as red as when they had first kissed. There was no way he had just said that, he couldn't have said that. He disn't love, he couldn't love her. There was no way, no he was just saying that to fuck her. That was it, he wanted to make her scream for him, that made sense. He only wanted to fuck her, all he wanted was her body. That was what that feeling was, that boiling in his chest. The burning in his heart, it was just lust.
At least that was what he believed, until she looked up at him and asked if he had meant it. The look of innocence that suddenly filled her eyes, made his belies shatter, and Fin gently touched her cheek. "I... do? I think..." Nodding he smirked, and let his fingers toy with her hair. "I do." This time it was solid, true, no doubts in his voice.
"I want to say it back I do. But I'm not the sort of woman you want to love. I'm me... I'm not loveable material..."
Finley grabbed her jaw then, forcing her to look at him. "Don't you ever fucking say that again." His voice was hard, and quiet. "You are amazing, you foolish girl." With that they were standing in the office of The Underground, Finley still holding her jaw. Blinking, he let go and stepped back. Gently e kissed her forehead, and moved to the sidebar against the wall, and poured to glasses of whiskey. Holding one to Kyra, Finley raised his, "To those we, love, and to those we've lost."

His face had gone a very deep shade of red and she was wondering if he would start to go back on what he said, if it was a mistake? That would have made this a little easier. Then they could both chalk it up to nothing more than hormones and nothing more. That he just wanted to sleep with her and it was nothing more than... I do...
Those two little words and the clear look in his eyes. He loved her. He really did love her and that meant that he... She swallowed because he was smiling and his fingers were in her hair and she had just told him something sort of heartbreaking. She had just told him that she basically didn't think highly enough of herself as a woman to be loved. But she supposed years of conditioning had her believe that. Her mother away wondered what the fuck she was going to do with her because she couldn't marry her to someone. The only man that ever touch her did it with the intention to take something from her, then when she knocked him flat on his ass he took it from his sister... so she burned him alive. She just always had problem with love and men and it was so much easier being one than trying to be loved by one.
But clearly Fin didn't care about that stuff. Those fears she had spent years trying not to be ruled by. He just grabbed her face, told her she was wonderful. Amazing and foolish and then took her back to the bar, right into his office for whiskey and a toast to...
"To those we love... And to those we are just realizing we love..." She said blushing some and sipping her drink.
She loved him, she loved him, she loved him. Kyra loved every last little thing about Finely O'Brien. She was head over heels in love and it was both terrifying and totally uplifting. She off all peopled was loved by someone, the crazy little dragon tamer had fallen for the soilder and really she couldn't be happier.

"To the realization of love..." Finley echoed her toast, stepping closer as he did. Raising the glass, he smiled over it at her. So this was love, actual true love. He had been in love before, of course that was brought to an end in France. Kyra was one of a kind though, something special, something smart, dangerous, beautiful, and fun. He took a drink from his glass, and brushed some hair from Kyras face. "A dragon tamer, turner teacher, then into a weapon... And now the woman I... I love..."
It still felt odd to say aloud, let alone to someone her thought he was going babysit when they first met. Stepping back, he moved back to his desk, and sat in the desk chair. What did he have to say to her now? What could he say? Sighing he rubbed the back of his neck, and shrugged. "So... what now? Because I am honestly at a loss here, love."/font]
