Snippet #2574708

Meredith laughed through her tears at the thought of him being bonded with the girl Kat or even worse the goth girl, though she didn't know either one well she somehow doubted they could handle him. The thought also caused a tight feeling in her chest and she realised it was possessive, he was hers and she would not give him up without a fight. She leaned into him allowing his strength to bolster hers until she felt she had herself under control. She wiped her eyes and smiled at him in thanks. Feeling oddly calm after her tears she made a feeble attempt at smoothing down her hair before giving up, only a hot shower and severe brushing would fix it after the nights events. But that could wait, first came breakfast.

"If my brother demands five grand for letting you being alone with me I will be having words with him." She said dryly as she left the bedroom holding it open for Jamie to follow her. In the living room cum kitchen Ash had already laid the oval table with dishes. Her stomach growled again as she caught the scent of bacon and eggs coming from the kitchen. Ash smiled at her as she came out of her room and waved a hand towards the table, clearly determined that she was to to let him deal with breakfast. She wasn't going to complain and sat patting the chair next to her for Jamie to sit.

Ash had outdone himself, piles of bacon, eggs, toast, and a large amount of mushrooms appeared in front of her, and Meredith didn't hesitate tucking in with relish. Ash left the bowls with the spare food on the table experienced in the sheer amount of food Meredith ate after a healing. Meredith had no doubt that he had done all this because he felt bad about what happened and although she did not blame him she understood his need to do something for her. She ate quickly but tidily, hating mess, and in short order she was heaping her plate with seconds. Ash sat down with them but didn't eat instead sipping from a mug of coffee. She didn't question it as she knew that Ash hated breakfast and never ate till lunchtime.

In between mouthfuls of food Meredith glanced at Jamie and then Ash hoping the two of them might be able to start afresh, things had not gone well last night, understandably under the circumstances but Meredith was very close to her twin and she really didn't want her twin and her chosen to be at odds. After all both were effectively joined with her, one by sharing a womb and the other by magic and the gods will.

"So Ash, I'm assuming you're busy today? Maybe seeing Claire or working?" She made effort to hide the unsubtle hint in her words and she knew Ash would get the message. Ash raised his eyebrows suggestively and winked and she grinned at the moment of shared understanding.

"Jake would probably welcome a trek around the lake." Ash said dryly. "its a good walk, at least a couple of hours, should give you two plenty of time to...catch up."
