11 Chapter 10

Zaline shows up at the apartment, with Buford on her heels "Oh honey, are you ok?" as she comes to hug me, I didn't have a vision of her thank god, being terrified to touch her and see one.

"Yes I'm physically ok, thanks to Remey, we were out when it happened, and he checked the apartment before letting me in"

Zaline looks at Remey up and down and with a sarcastic tone "Well thank goodness you were here" looking confused I look between the two still looking with a scowl at each other.

"You two must know each other"

Remey answers first "Yes we grew up with each other and Buford, we didn't really get along, as she would call me a trouble maker" Zaline laughs with a bitterness, mumbling about how trouble is his middle name.

Buford gets on his knee looking me in the eyes "Did you" Looking at Remey then continued "see anything?"

Looking into his concerned eyes "No, there were no visions, but I did feel that weird sense of danger again when we walked up to the apartment, like by the alleyway"

At this point being clueless to the conversation Remey pipes up "Visions? What′s he talking about?"

We look at him, then Buford decides to speak "Acadia, gather your things, please help her Zaline, I'll explain to him"

Thirty minutes later with two bags and my handy backpack ready, we all meet outside, Remey eyeing me a little closer than normal "Didn't figure you for one of us"

I look at him and say "Us? You have abilities too?"

He then smiles that famous smirk that makes my knees weak "Why yes shah, I would show you, but maybe another time" with a wink, and blush from me.

Buford joins in "Acadia, you're coming to stay with me in the guest room, we discussed this and it's safer at my place than Zalines, you can ride to work and back with me, and keep you safe between us all, it seems the hooded figure might be after you"

A little shocked no one asked my opinion but happy not to sleep on her couch I agree. Telling Remey thank you, I'm sorry and ill text him tomorrow, we said goodbye. Then telling Zaline ill see her after work tomorrow, reassuring her I'm ok, we got in the car and left. There goes the only thing that was mine, even though I was going to renew the lease next month, I sure don't want to be there anymore...

Buford looks at me as he drives us to his house that's a few blocks away "so how was the date then?" out of nowhere a laugh bubbles up in me, the next thing you know we're both laughing, all the way into the house.

I thank him, taking my stuff into the guest room, he told me there will be some food in the kitchen when I'm ready. After putting my stuff away and getting a shower, I put on some pajama pants and a grey hoodie, head down to the kitchen.

Buford finishing heating some delicious smelling food and fixes us both a plate. I noticed he showered and changed into some pajama shorts as well, but wearing a tight white t-shirt, I can see every muscle as he moves about.

Trying not to drool, and have fantasies about my boss especially after having just been on a date with his friend. "Make yourself at home, what's mine is yours as they say, and if you need anything the maid and butler will be here in the morning, don't hesitate to ask" I thank him.

We finish eating and head to bed without any more conversation, ready for this night to be over with, I pass out the second I hit the plush pillow.
