being a multi shipper is like picking which kind of shipper i want to be that day.
do i want to be a die hard bartylus shipper? and be overly loud about it or do i want to ship rosekiller that day and get into how they match each other instead of compete for it like bartylus?
do i want to ship prongsfoot and moonwater and live an alternate universe or do i want to have jegulus and wolfstar?
or do i want to have dorlily or lilylene? maybe switch it up completely and ship bartylily OR i could go with the classic jily.
or you know i could spice it up and go into my poly ships.. darkwolfstar, wolfstarbucks, jegulily, starrosekiller?
or go into my deep guilty pleasures with jarlene, jilylene, bitchkiller, moonkiller, lilyprongsfoot… anyways.
this isn’t even everyone
don’t even get me started on kinnies.

Ideas for Hp ship names
Hi guys. So, normally i would be doing yet another mute & block/follow list but, i've noticed that there are a shit ton of yet unnamed ships (both problematic & not) in this fandom so i decided to propose some names for them, startin with the non Problematic ones:
Heat:
Angelotter: the ship between Angelina Johnson and Harry Potter
Reason for the name: its her name and his last name
Jarlene : The ship between James Potter and Marlene McKinnon.
Reason for the name: its their names
Prince's Bones: Severus Snape and Amélia Bones
Reason for the name: it's his mom's last name and her last name... Plus it makes it sound like she belongs to him.
Severlene: Severus Snape and Marlene McKinnon
Reason for the name: it's their names
PaddyPet: Sirius black and Petunia Evans Dursley
Reason for the name: it's both of their nicknames combined
Maregulus:Mary Macdonald and Regulus Black
Reason for the name: it's their names combined
Prince's Pet: Severus Snape and Petunia Evans Dursley
Reson for the name: it's his mom's last name and her nickname.
Femslash:
Chhaang and Gin- the ship between Ginny Weasley and Cho Chang
Reason for the name:
"Chhaang or chhyang (Tibetan: ཆང་, Wylie: chang, Nepali: छ्याङ, Newar: थो:) is a Nepalese and Tibetan alcoholic beverage also popular in parts of the eastern Himalayas, Yakkha, Limbu, Dura, Newar, Sunuwar, Rai, Gurung, Magar, Sherpa, Tamang and Lepcha communities. " (from Wikipedia) & " Gin (/dʒɪn/) is a distilled alcoholic drink that derives its flavour from juniper berries and other botanical ingredients." (from Wikipedia). It also happens that Ginny can be shortened to Gin and Chhaang could also be a misspelling of Cho's last name so it kinda works out.
Gin & Fleur- the ship between Ginny Weasley and Fleur Delacour
Reason for the name: it's a shortened version of Ginny's name and Fleur's name.
Slash:
Drorge- the ship between Draco Malfoy and George Weasley
Dred- the ship between Fred Weasley and Draco Malfoy
Garry-the ship between George Weasley and Harry Potter
Frarry- the ship between George Weasley and Harry Potter
Reverus - the ship between Regulus Black and Severus Snape
Poly:
JoKer Darling - The ship between George Weasley, Fred Weasley Draco Malfoy
Reason for the name : the series of ficts bellow
Chosen JoKer- the ship between George Weasley, Fred Weasley and Harry Potter
Reason for the Name: the same fict series and He is the chosen one
Joker Granger : the ship between George Weasley, Fred Weasley and Hermione Granger
Reason for the name: the same fict series and its her last name
Joker Lee: the ship between George Weasley, Fred Weasley and Lee Jordan
Reason for the name: the same series of ficts and its his name.
Dramionarry: the ship between Draco Malfoy,Harry Potter and Hermione Granger
reason: Its a combination of their ship names
Have more ideas? Leave them in the comments and i will add them to the list. Let's make these ship names official

jilylene microfic
i do not have the word count because 1 too lazy and 2 it messed up when i tried.
(because multiple people told me to)
Marlene was forced to go to this club called the three broomsticks which she felt was kind of comical because of Mary and Lily. She fought not to, but one thing led to another and now she’s in an outfit at the bar getting drunk on fire whisky.
It’s not the fact that she didn’t want to go it’s that the boys were going too, meaning James was going to come, also meaning she would have to watch the two be together all night. She would never admit it out loud, but she’s had a thing for Lily since they were in fourth year. Now it’s seventh year and she still has a thing for Evans. Which just makes Marlene hate herself if she’s honest.
Marlene’s nursing her drink watching the said couple dance with each other very intimately when Sirius plops down next to her, watching her gaze.
But he’s too drunk to connect the two, so he just scrunches his face puffing up his lips a bit and looking at her after a second.
She groans loudly, but since it’s so loud with the music only Sirius can hear.
“Why are you so upset?” He yells close to her ear.
“It’s nothing really, just got a bit of a headache.”
Sirius doesn’t look convinced, but just shrugs banging on the bar table for more shots.
Marlene and James eyes lock which makes her stomach drop in embarrassment, but for some reason she just can’t look away.
James smiles and murmurs something to Lily and he turns her around, still dancing and now both Lily and James are looking at Marlene making her heart stutter slightly.
What. The. Fuck.
Lily with her hair a sweaty mess, but still looking so beautiful in the flashing lights points at Marlene and gestures to come over. Marlene steals one of Sirius shots downing it with Sirius pouting.
She moves past the dancing bodies to the pair who are eyeing her with daring amusement. Something in Marlene wants to accept the dare.
Lily pulls her in closer grabbing her by the waist moving her hips to the rhythm of the music, Marlene not even knowing her body could move like this since she’s not much of a dancer.
With a flick of her wrist Lily moves Marlene in between her and James, Lily resting her chin on Marlene’s shoulder, Jame’s hands now on the waist of Marlene as he stares at the both of them.
Marlene hadn’t realized it, but she’s really enjoying this, the soft touching, the intimacy, the safety she feels. Not to mention the electric feeling she has as both Lily and James touch her.
James leans into Marlene mouth against her ear. “We can all have fun Marly, promise.”
And with that Marlene grins with excitement continuing to dance and letting the fire whisky flow through her veins.

Pathfinder update
I'm just gonna talk a bit more about Ram and the direction of the Aten story tonight. I've written a very brief history of Ram through the character Kart. Around two thousand years ago a group of people (mostly smaller races like dwarves, halflings and goblins) came from the wilderness (now known as No Man's Land) and found a relatively decent spot for agriculture, a ring of rivers surrounding some rocky steppes, tundra and taiga but still far more suitable for agriculture than the surrounding mountainous [Name WIP] region or the desert to the north. They separated into tribes to cover more ground, and after a lot of time, power struggles and neighbouring squabbles they became what is now Jarlen and his Lillejarlene. Around three hundred years ago Jarl Ram took power. Jarl Ram is not a singular person, but Ram is the family name. There have been quite a few jarls in the past 300 years. If you remember the update from last night, Kart is a nasjonale. He supports the current Jarl and traditional Rammite culture, a conservative. When he speaks about the Jarl to the party there is obviously going to be a bias, and a hint towards threatening anger towards the Jarl's opponents, without directly mentioning Frittlandene. That also means that right now I only really have notes from a specific perspective. When I'm ready to introduce Rammite Frittlander I'll be able to write a more complete perspective from the ultranationalist end of the Rammite political spectrum. Anyways, that's all I really have to say about Ram for now.
The thing the party is doing right now is going along with the orders of Lamashtu, the Old Mother, who gave them a horn and a marked map of Aten. In each distinct biome of Aten there is a Genius Loci who has become corrupt. In Daouda, the desert, the Aleaza' clan has been beset by angry spirits called Ruh al'ajdad and harsh sandstorms called Khamaseen. The linguistic origin of the native Kholo clans of Aten is Egyptian Arabic by the way. These things are being caused by corrupted Genius Loci that is hidden away in a giant stone scorpion tomb underneath a portion of sand in the desert that has been completely turned to glass. The native Kholo call it Aleimlaq, and weirdly there is a complete absence of local legend surrounding the scorpion, although the glass beds are explained by a story about a dragon who wanted to signal to her partner in the elemental plane, so she breathed fire on the sand until it turned into glass and reflected the sun all the way up into the heavens. The party is actually in the Aleimlaq right now, last session they walked down a hallway and then one of ours fell asleep so we had to cancel the rest. But they'll explore the rest of it next time. The Aleimlaq is a tomb of an older Kholo clan that lived here before, but was thrown into conflict and destroyed by the Genius Loci. In the legs of the scorpion are tablets detailing the way that one of the families within the clan lead to its downfall through their ideological failings, and the party is tasked with telling their lost spirits what they could have done to avoid this. Hopefully they notice that the families and their ideals of this old, extinct clan almost perfectly mirror the Aleaza'. Once they take care of the Genius Loci a mummy will give them some more direction as to what they're doing. “That dreadful cursed repetition, made to quell the Kholo’s fruition, sent down by the mountain pass, and still empowered in the land of grass. The horn was made to fight them back, but its owner felled in an attack, and the old mother hid it away, until it made its use today. In your paws you hold the tool, to stop their hating quiet rule, and the titans blood will tremble as, you make your way to the mountain pass.” When they search for the mountain pass, that's when Kart will be introduced but it will turn out that they can't get through the pass before they take out the other corrupt Genius Loci. One of the marks on Lamashtu's map was on a place called Therix Cave, near the party's home village of Baobab. Therix is a dragon who lives there, a widowed woman with dozens of kobold children. The party is already friends with Therix, and she was one of the first allies the party made by finding her lost child Archibold. She won't know about any corrupt Loci, but she does know about some weird people who came and went eight years ago during the war against the Titans, who the party discovered some hints of on a previous visit there with a note that used Aten militia code-speak that the veteran in the party, Zara Nimer, understood as saying something like "Something really bad has come, and we had to retreat further up the mountain." To get up to the top of the mountain they're actually going to have to ride on Therix' back, which I know they'll love. They all love the milf dragon. Who wouldn't, I would definitely fall for Therix if I met her. But anyways, that's all I have written in the future right now. Exposition about Ram, and a bit on the next few steps of the mission. Whether they do this quest for Lamashtu is all their choice, and the Eadam Altamathul family, the religious keepers in the Aleaza' clan, said that while Lamashtu was never worshipped or called upon except in the most extreme, last resort situations, if one is given something to do by her they will have a choice in it, and it isn't necessarily an evil deed. It can win you favour with the Old Mother, which is still nice even if you do not directly worship her. So I think they've pretty much decided to go through with it. That's all for tonight. More tomorrow, probably. :)

“You ok, there, Dad?” Emily’s taunting, lilting voice cut through the haze abruptly, pulling him out of his, most likely, lack-of-romantic-connection induced reverie. Yeah, that’s it.
Haha... Beau's been busted.
And now Cassie, Jenny, and Denise know too.
Jarlen
They've already got the couple name. Have to say I prefer that one over...
Belleau
That one just made me laugh!!
Ahh, they are both beginning to realise their feelings for each other.
“Cal’s wrist on the crime scene. I saw numbers.” I frowned, pouting slightly. “541458. Can’t help but think they mean something. And one photo of Lucy had a six digit number tattooed on her. 045114.”
I'm intrigued. What are these numbers about?!
“S’all well and good, but I think you need t’calm yourself down.” He took the courage to kiss my forehead, and paused for a moment, waiting for my reaction. I don’t know what came over me, but I nuzzled further into him, and I felt his chest, which sort of seemed tight, suddenly relax, a long breath escaping his mouth. “You’re always taking care of others, darlin’. Time for someone to take care o’ you.”
Loved this moment between them!
Del Campo leaned forward, his fingers drumming on the table and seriously asking me to snap them off or at least break them with my bare hands. “Markham Leeds sends his regards.”
Oohh!! I knew i didn't like him!! Is he behind all of it?!
Light My Fire (Again) | beau arlen
Summary: “I thought I’d swore off love, Jenny.” I smiled, chuckling a bit as I looked down to my feet then back up the skies, taking in the twinkling lights. “God, I really thought I did, and I was doing such a good job at it too. But, well, I just… I couldn’t help it.” I wet my lips slightly, biting the bottom one. “It’s improper, but it’s true.”
SERIES MASTERLIST
MAIN MASTERLIST
(divider credits go to @cafekitsune)
A/N - Inspired by Take Me Home by @zepskies
six - kind regards, your broken heart
PREVIOUSLY ON LMF:
I woke up groggily in Beau’s cabin for the third time this week, rubbing my forehead as I grunted softly, propping myself up on the pillows. Beau now no longer trusted the safety of my own house, which had now become a crime scene, therefore prompting him to insist that I stay at his trailer while Dean took care of Olivia. I had taken a beating that day, and my limbs felt like Jello.
“Mornin’ sweetheart.” Beau stepped in with an affectionate smile, sitting down beside my legs, his hand on my knee while his thumb stroked it. “You doin’ better?”
“Physically, yes.” I nodded, sighing dejectedly as I took in the angry red marks on my forearms. He tried to meet my eyes with what looked like concern add even pity flashing behind his.
“And… emotionally?”
“I…” I bit my lip, frowning as I looked down at my hands. The hands of the law, or so I claim. “I just feel useless, Sheriff.”
“Useless?” He looked incredulous, his hand tightening on my knee. “T-The hell you calling useless, Belle?”
“Me.” I sighed, licking my lips nervously. “I have been so… weak lately. I’ve taken but after hit and… I have a niece to protect. If I can’t protect myself, how can I protect her from others? I feel like I’ve failed her, Sheriff. I’ve failed my baby.” My voice cracked at the end, the pain tearing at my heart.
“Your first instinct was to protect Liv.” He assured. “You didn’t think of anyone else before her. You got her to safety first, and I’d label that a damn good aunt, Belle. She’s safe and sound. No longer in danger, and she’s with her dad. She’s ok.”
I nodded. “I guess I can rest now.”
NOW:
Along with being a master at getting myself into life-threatening situations, I was also trained in boxing. Now that I’d fully recovered from the gunshot wound and partially from the attack a week ago, I was taking Olivia through another self-defence class. She’s a natural, if I do say so myself.
“Control the space, c’mon.” I encouraged, tapping her arm to keep her guard up. She began to assert more, making me chuckle breathlessly and nod. “That’s it, attagirl. Now, combo.” I held up my focus mittens, which she hit clean and sharp with a jab, cross punch, a vicious hook before twisting into a spinning hook kick. “Good job, tiger. Keep at it, don’t lose that momentum.”
Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Beau watching from the grill with a faint smile on his face, making me laughed and shake my head as I continued to work Olivia through the exercise. “Don’t tire on me now.” I encouraged, tapping her arms again to get her guard up. “Bob and weave.” I hook punched, forcing her to bend her knees and duck under my arm, my glove twisting so she could sharply hook punch it. “Good, good! C’mon, just a little more, then we can have a rest. Roundhouse.” I held up the pad, which she kicked perfectly with a satisfying, resounding smack. The action made Beau’s eyebrows raise slightly, impressed, as he watched Olivia and I, my attention solely on Liv.
His eyes trailed from my tied back wavy hair, my forearm brushing back sweaty, loose strands of my hair. Then they lingered on my determined blue eyes, which flashed almost icy white in the glow of the morning. Then came the dewy curvature of my button nose, a bead of sweat trickling down the freckled skin that was promptly wiped. Then came my pretty pink lips, my tongue darting out every now and then to wet them every now and then. A small huff of breath escaped his mouth as his emerald eyes traced the lines of my neck, lingering on a small, prominent freckle on the smooth, unmarked skin. Then came, like a punch to the gut, my slightly defined shoulders and arms, visible because of my tank top. To make things worse (or better), a hint of my bra strap was visible underneath as it shifted and moved along with my agile body. So his eyes wandered lower-
“You ok, there, Dad?” Emily’s taunting, lilting voice cut through the haze abruptly, pulling him out of his, most likely, lack-of-romantic-connection induced reverie. Yeah, that’s it.
“Yeah, sweetheart. I’m doin’ fine.” Beau nodded, swallowing. “Just… fine.” He gave me a once over, clearing his throat.
Damn it, Sheriff. That’s your deputy, get it together.
I jogged over with a grin, grabbing my water bottle and taking a long sip from it, the cool water refreshing my lungs. “God, I needed that.” I groaned in satisfaction, rubbing my neck. I then exhaled happily, glancing between the two as I sensed something up. “Did I miss anything?”
“No.” Emily shook her head with an innocent smile. “Not at all.” I flicked my eyes between the two with a twinkle in them, a slight smile playing at my lips.
“A’ight.” I nodded, conceding with a chuckle, running a hand through my hair before rubbing the nape of my neck. I could try and crack the secret code between this father-daughter duo, or I could focus on more pressing matters that I didn’t want Liv to worry about. Such as Cal’s murder, which was confirmed when a body was found dragged into a lake, prints washed off. We still had del Marco in custody, but that told me that it wasn’t enough. We needed the phone. Lucy’s phone, which somebody took. I didn’t know who. “I’m gonna start working the case from the safety of the trailer.”
“Are you sure that’s the best idea, darlin’?” Beau broached, corners of his eyes crinkling in concern. “You ain’t exactly in good shape to go after these God awful men.”
“At least I can go after them from a more desk-heavy standpoint.” I shrugged, grimacing as I thought of the night the guys attacked. “I’m just pissed. They could’ve gotten Olivia.” The thought of them laying their hands on Olivia made my blood boil. The things I’d do to them if they ever did come back for a second round, they’d make the Devil blush. And Lucifer probably doesn’t take these things with a heavy heart.
“We can’t go chargin’ like bulls that see red, Belle.” He chastised, folding his arms with a small huff. “You’ve been getting hurt nonstop, and I can’t see that again- I ain’t allowing it. Not anytime soon. As your friend and your sheriff? I suggest you stand down.”
“And I’m not inclined to slack off.” I frowned, copying his expression. “As long as those thugs are out there, my baby girl is in danger. And as long as she isn’t safe, I’m not happy. So I won’t rest until that group is taken down.”
Beau gave me a long and hard look, his tongue wetting his lips before he bit them in frustration, a look which I wasn’t a stranger to, but it seemed oddly more… magnetic… than usual. If that’s a way to describe it. “You’re not gonna listen, huh?”
“No, sir.”
He let out a huff of breath, looking to the sky as he contemplated what to do. Then he nodded, Adam’s apple bobbing. “Alright. But… if there’s any chance that we need a tactical squad, which is pretty high, you stay at the back.”
I gave him a grin, knowing I’d won. It didn’t take long, since nobody was bothered to deal with my stubbornness. “Thanks, Sheriff.”
He just grumbled and looked away.
I was dropping off Tom to Harry’s house after picking up Liv from their date. I had mixed feelings about Tom, which didn’t feel rather fair, and as an officer of the law, fair judgement is mandatory. On one hand, Olivia seemed happy with him. Really happy. He was sweet (by what I’d heard from Olivia’s lovesick rambling), cared for her and was an all-around gentleman, even though Olivia was older by a few months. I could respect that much. But… he was Harry’s son. Adopted son, so thankfully the bad genes didn’t pass on, but still.
I could still remember the features of his, the ones I admired on a daily basis. The twinkling, charming green blue eyes, the winning smile, fluffy brown blonde hair, the deep, warm laugh that never failed to be contagious- the hell am I mixing Harry up with? Harry’s laugh sounded like the laugh of that grandpa from New York that Olivia showed me once on YouTube but ten times worse. And I can’t believe I found his Missouri accent even one attractive when it doesn’t compare to a Texas accent on a deep voice- where the hell is Texas coming from?!
I walked Tom up the steps to Harry’s house, which was quite literally the picture of picket fence perfection. Only thing missing from the meticulously mowed lawn, carved, painted white, wooden fence and the peach house paired with a red roof was a line of flowery bushes- oh wait, they have that too.
I could’ve had this. But I blew it, with me, myself and my workaholic disposition.
I swallowed, leading the sandy-haired teenager up the steps and knocking on the door to Harry’s house, the man himself opening the door and flashing the smile that always picked my spirits up, but I only got a weird feeling since my stomach sank at the same time this time around. “Harry.”
“Issy.” He moved aside so Tom could walk in, giving him a brief hug before turning back to me. His eyes looked me over, a look in his eye that I couldn’t place. “You look…”
“Horrible, I know.” I chuckled, looking away uncomfortably, a small, polite grin on my face as I tried my hardest not to burst and start yelling about how he ruined me. I half expected him to agree, but then I felt a pressure on my shoulder and found him smiling affectionately as the hand dropped to squeeze my bicep almost imperceptibly. The hell?
“I think you look beautiful.” Harry whispered, making my breath catch in my throat and bile almost shoot up from wherever it comes from. This man is-is married.
“R-Rhea!” I stammered way too loudly, plastering a patronising grin on my face as I shrugged his hand off. “How’s your wife?”
“She’s ok.” He nodded, looking somewhat dejected. I cleared my throat, stepping back to keep distance between him and I.
“That’s good.” Awkward silence, as expected when your married ex is hitting on you. “I have to go. Got work, cases to solve, all that.”
“I see.” He agreed quietly, and I turned on my heel, booking the hell out of there.
Beau hurried to Dewell and Hoyt’s office, where he found the trifecta- Jenny, Cassie and Denise. They all were looking at him with matching knowing glances which told him his game was up. But- hold on a second - what game was there in the first place? No game here, no siree. But there they were, Denise, Jenny and Cassie, all staring at him with looks that said ‘I know your secret’ but the secret was nonexistent, right?
“Emily told us.” Jenny grinned, spinning a pen in between her fingers as she snickered like a cartoon villain.
“How you checked Deputy Joyner out.” Cassie smirked, pumping her eyebrows. His face instantly flushed red; he hadn’t checked his deputy out. He was gauging her suitability to… get back on the job. That’s it. That’s right.
“Or Belle, as you call her.” Denise teased, filing her nails with the wrong side of the filer. “Is there somethin’ you’re not telling us, Bo-Bo?”
“I think y’all are insane.” Beau snorted, averting his eyes nervously. “Belle… and-and me? And I, grammatically speaking. No. Nah, she swore off men, remember? She swore off men. After Harry the ass, who is back in town, by the way, s-she doesn’t need any more men drama.”
“C’mon, I wanna see Jarlen happen.” Cassie pouted.
“Oh my god, Jarlen!” Jenny gasped, nodding frantically. “I was gonna call it Belleau.”
Denise grimaced in agreement, her head also bobbing up and down. “Jarlen works.”
“Jarlen it is.” Cassie smirked, staring straight into Beau’s soul. He cleared his throat, chastising himself for even thinking about his deputy that way. Though… it wouldn’t hurt, right?
It was true that he felt a bit… partial… to the momma bear, ass protecting beaut of a deputy, but he hadn’t been that obvious with it… unless he had.
“You seem rather frustrated on this case, huh, Belle?” He asked, sighing deeply. I shook my head, plastering on a smile that once again did not reach my eyes as I looked back at him.
“No, sir, I’m just concerned for the kid.” I answered not as smoothly as I’d hoped to have done. My voice was slightly shaky, and I knew what he was thinking. Mark had been after custody of Olivia for ages, and was still trying. However, he couldn’t do anything, not when I was named Olivia’s legal guardian and was Lucy’s next of kin.
“It’s about Mark, right?”
I chuckled lowly, nodding. “That obvious?”
“You’re like a mama bear in these cases.” He grinned, then patted my knee. “But now, I need my deputy to have a clear mind. God knows you help me keep mine all clear and sunny skies.”
“Gotcha, Sheriff.” I smiled as we pulled up to the house. “Hear you loud and clear.” I reached under the seat, pulling on my bulletproof vest and strapping it tight. I looked over, seeing that he’d done the same. “Shall we?”
“We shall, darlin’.”
While Olivia was busy admiring the necklaces, I nicked the tape from the box, storing it in the pocket of my jeans. I noticed a large shadow cover the light from the door, and I saw Beau there. I could trust Beau with this. He could help me, so could Jenny and Cassie. I quickly exchanged a look with him that he understood, so he put on a smile, strolling over and clapping me on the shoulder.
“There’s my Southern Belle, all up an’ about. From a Texan to a Kansan, you are what I’d call a Texan 10, even in a faded plaid.” He grinned, squeezing my shoulder slightly and winking before turning to Olivia. “And you, young lady, must be Olivia.”
“That’s me.” Liv nodded, looking between Beau and I. “And you must be Aunt Isa’s favourite sheriff.”
“While I appreciate it, I’m the only sheriff.”
“Exactly.”
“Liv, sweetheart, can you go downstairs? I’ve gotta bring the cake, but start opening your presents.” I said to Olivia with a sigh. I kissed her hair, smoothing it back for a moment before letting her go, and then I turned to Beau when I knew she was out of earshot.
“Something’s up, right?” He frowned, folding his arms and tilting his head. “Talk to me, Belle.”
I held up the cassette tape, a long sigh leaving my mouth. “Titled ‘sunflower’. It’s the nickname my sister used to call me, so I can’t help but think if this is a message seen six years too late.”
“Or something that got mixed up in the wrong box.”
“That’s also a possibility.” I nodded, then pouted in thought. “I’ve got a cassette player somewhere in my study. After Liv’s celebration here is over and she’s out with her friends, whaddya say we have a lil’ listen to it?”
“Sounds like a plan.” Beau agreed, then his eyes landed on the framed photo of my sister and I. “That’s Lucy, huh?”
“Yeah.”
“She looks just like her sister.” He rubbed my arm comfortingly, the backs of his fingers grazing my skin. “How much older was she?”
“Eight years.” I replied softly, leaning slightly into his touch, even though I didn’t quite register it.
“Ah, so she’d be lordin’ it over us if she was still alive. Even a forty-year-old sheriff can’t escape the clutches of an older sister.”
“Neither can a forty year old deputy.” I chuckled, and his hand moved down to hover in front of mine, but my pinky wrapped around his, my breath hitching as I thought of the day I’d skipped down the stairs six years ago and found my sister dead in the garden, multiple knife wounds in her chest. Then the weeks after where I searched and searched for any leads but found none.
My head snapped forward, glass breaking and flying to the left, cutting my cheek as the seatbelt tightened on my chest. My forehead banged against the wheel, a cry escaping my mouth-
“Hey, Deputy.” Beau’s low timbre snapped me out of it again, I looked into his warm green eyes, the ones I’d grown to trust with my life. “You doin’ ok?”
“I… yeah.” I nodded, cracking a smile.
I was sitting in Jenny’s kitchen with Beau and Jenny, of course, the latter busy making lunch since I’d handled our breakfast. I was, again, scrolling on my Instagram, most of my feed Harry and Rhea the redhead. The guy even had the audacity to tag me in a photo, which I didn’t respond to or react to. Beau’s eyes followed mine, locking on the screen with a frown. “That’s Harry the jackass. Why are you lookin’ at photos of Harry the jackass?”
“He’s with the redhead he cheated on me with. Rhea.” I explained with a sigh, and he snatched the phone, not giving me time to protest as he looked at Rhea with an unreadable expression on his face. Then he smirked, nodding.
“I see the appeal.” He chuckled, looking at me playfully. Jenny gasped in horror, swatting his arm while I looked at him incredulously, taken aback by his audacity. “I mean, she’s gorgeous-”
“Beau!” Jenny scolded while I looked away, starting to internally panic. He… thought Rhea was gorgeous? Did he really? Was Harry justified in leaving me because I wasn’t good enough?
“I’m messin’ with you!” Beau raised his hands in surrender, taking another look at the photo before handing my phone back to me. “Sweetheart, Harry the jackass doesn’t even know who he’s lost. This Rhea girl? Doesn’t even hold a candle to you. She’s an LA three, or a Texas one. You are a ten in both worlds, darlin’. He doesn’t deserve you.”
“Thanks, Sheriff.” I sighed in relief, rubbing my face. Jenny patted Beau’s shoulder, giving him a look that said ‘I was about to rip your head off’. “You got me there for a second.”
“I got Hoyt too.”
“Yes, he did.” Jenny nodded, glaring playfully at Beau. “If you’d said that truthfully, no joking, I’d rain down hellfire.”
“Well, I’m glad I was just poking some fun.” Beau smirked, then patted my knee. “You’re gorgeous, Southern Belle. Ain’t no messing around there.”
“You’re very welcome, young lady.” And with that, I took the glass of water with a grateful smile and sipped it as I padded down the stairs in my fuzzy socks. Beau was busy humming a tune and cooking some breakfast, which happened to be scrambled eggs. The moment he saw me, his demeanour instantly changed.
“Ay, ay, ay! Who let her out?” He frowned, pointing at me. Em, Carla and I instantly raised our hands, which forced Beau’s own to accept how I was now capable of walking. “A’ight, three against one, I see how it is. The ladies launching a coup- I see through all your plans.” He chuckled, dishing out the eggs. They didn’t look burnt, which was a plus, so I grabbed one plate and sat down with it. “Since you were on bed rest, Belle, we paused the investigation. The APB hasn’t found the guy who hurt you, but we’ll find him.”
“Yeah, I heard you reopened your sister’s murder investigation.” Carla frowned sympathetically, reaching over to comfortingly squeeze my hand. Emily, however, looked excited.
“No way, your sister was murdered?” She gasped, a wide smile on her face until Beau and Carla shot her a disapproving look, eyebrow raised and mouths set in a grimace. Damn, they’re good at the ‘look’.
“Em, let’s try to be a little more sensitive about this subject.”
“Your enthusiasm is completely warranted, sweetheart, murder can be cool, but let’s dial it down a little.” Beau added, clapping Emily on the shoulder on his way to sit down, and when he did, I felt a small nudge on my foot. I turned to Beau with a raised eyebrow, and he gave me a small smile that could only come before an-“Are you doin’ ok, darlin’?”
There it is.
“Just fine.” I smiled, nodding as I shoved a bite of omelette in my mouth. Beau and Carla looked at me expectantly, as if I was about to break down bleeding all of a sudden, but I shrugged, glancing between them. “I’m fine, you two. Trust me, I feel better already.” I got a call from Olivia, so I broke into a wide grin and answered it immediately, swallowing my chewed bite of omelette. “Hey, sweetie.”
I woke up groggily in Beau’s cabin for the third time this week, rubbing my forehead as I grunted softly, propping myself up on the pillows. Beau now no longer trusted the safety of my own house, which had now become a crime scene, therefore prompting him to insist that I stay at his trailer while Dean took care of Olivia. I had taken a beating that day, and my limbs felt like Jello.
“Mornin’ sweetheart.” Beau stepped in with an affectionate smile, sitting down beside my legs, his hand on my knee while his thumb stroked it. “You doin’ better?”
“Physically, yes.” I nodded, sighing dejectedly as I took in the angry red marks on my forearms. He tried to meet my eyes with what looked like concern add even pity flashing behind his.
“And… emotionally?”
“I…” I bit my lip, frowning as I looked down at my hands. The hands of the law, or so I claim. “I just feel useless, Sheriff.”
“Useless?” He looked incredulous, his hand tightening on my knee. “T-The hell you calling useless, Belle?”
“Me.” I sighed, licking my lips nervously. “I have been so… weak lately. I’ve taken but after hit and… I was a niece to protect. If I can’t protect myself, how can I protect her from others? I feel like I’ve failed her, Sheriff. I’ve failed my baby.” My voice cracked at the end, the pain tearing at my heart.
“Your first instinct was to protect Liv.” He assured. “You didn’t think of anyone else before her. You got her to safety first, and I’d label that a damn good aunt, Belle. She’s safe and sound. No longer in danger, and she’s with her dad. She’s ok.”
I nodded. “I guess I can rest now.”
Yeah, maybe he was a little too partial. But he couldn’t help it. Elle Joyner was… likeable, charming, funny, had the most beautiful eyes… he couldn’t help falling for her liking her as much as he did.
“Bo-Bo?” Denise’s lilt took him out of memory lane, matching smirks again on all three of their faces. “You’re a little spacy.”
Beau raised his eyebrows, trying to come up with an excuse but failing miserably.
That night, I was up late, working a case. I’d sent Olivia to bed after having the leftovers from the last takeout and a quick goodbye before she went to Dean’s. I flicked through the sheafs of paper, and I found a picture of Lucy and I. Lucy had a tattoo on her right wrist that made me sit up. I’d never seen her with it before, so it intrigued me more than it usually would.
045114.
The hell was that for? Just a random number?
I swept my hand down my mouth, biting my bottom lip before I shut the file, lying down in the bed Beau had made for me, pulling the covers up to my chin as I shut my eyes, already in my pyjamas. I scrolled on my phone, coming across a voicemail from… Harry. The moment I played it, the slurred syllables told me he had gotten into the beer.
‘Heya, Isa, just wanted t-to say, m’so in love w’ya. Can’t get enough o’ya. Just wanted you t’know. Especially since it’s been how long? A-Ah, three years. Can’t get o’er ya. C-Call me.’
I felt bad for Rhea.
I turned over in bed, too tired to even forward the voicemail to her and blindly putting the phone on the bedside table. My eyelids felt like anvils midair being pulled down by the cruel force of gravity, so I fell asleep soon after. However, that was short lived when I got up a few hours later, panting in what could only be the aftershocks of a nightmare. I rubbed my eyes, my hands travelling to my arms over the hoodie that Beau lent me. It went down to my mid-thigh, I was that small. I saw a wet spot appear on the chest area, and I swallowed, realising that my breath was shakier and more ragged than normal and my cheeks were tainted with tears. I instantly grabbed a tissue, wiping them. I didn’t want to ruin his hoodie any further with my angst that rivalled a teenager’s.
On the way out of the trailer, finding the still-burning fire, I took the photo of Lucy and I out, taken from the time we had been at her first wedding in Dean’s home town: Roseburg, Oregon. I sat down at a chair by the fire, the hoodie practically swallowing my body up in an attempt for warmth. Dean had his lips pressed to Lucy’s hair, his hands tickling her sides and making her let out a laugh that was too beautiful for this world. I was holding the bouquet like a trophy, since I’d caught it, but I, in fact, was not next.
My great aunt Bertha got married to her neighbourhood’s milkman, Samuel, before I could even score a date.
And then Dean and Lucy divorced due to work schedule problems, and Lucy found Mark. Not my favourite choice, but she still married someone. Here I was, yearning for someone at 40 years old who probably didn’t yearn for me back. I’m a mess of a human, aren’t I?
“Belle, darlin’?” Beau showed up at the door to his trailer, his hands desperately trying to smooth his blasted hedgehog hair while his eyes blearily took in the scene, concern bleeding onto his rugged features as he took a step forward, immediately sensing that I was deep in thought. “S’late, sweetheart. What’s goin’ on in that head a’yours, hm?” He also deduced my half-assed attempt for warmth, so he whipped his coat off, tucking it around my shoulders before lunging to get a blanket that he placed over my legs. He then sat down next to me, wrapping a strong arm around my shoulder that he used to draw me into his chest, his other large hand gripping my thigh slightly to move my legs in a more comfortable position. By instinct, my hand went over his heart.
Thump. Thump.
His heartbeat was oddly comforting.
“Mind tellin’ me what’s got my favourite deputy sporting a face like a wet weekend?” Beau asked softly, his fingers rubbing through my hair, teasing out any random knots, because of course there had to be imperfections in what could be a perfect moment.
His lips almost pressed against my hair, ghosting over for a moment before he decided against it, his cheek nuzzling the soft strands instead. I sighed, biting my lip. “I think the case is taking its toll on my sleep.” I replied quietly, rubbing my puffy red eye. “Had a nightmare that Olivia was kidnapped. And had a flashback of when Cal died. So many numbers…”
“What do you mean by that, sweet girl?” He proved further, his thumb tracing my cheekbone before sweeping down to line my jaw. The touches helped me relax and stop the panicking, which helped a lot with recall. My muscles relaxed, my breathing slowing down and telling my watch that I no longer needed to be recommended breathing exercises.
“Cal’s wrist on the crime scene. I saw numbers.” I frowned, pouting slightly. “541458. Can’t help but think they mean something. And one photo of Lucy had a six digit number tattooed on her. 045114.”
“They’re both connected?”
“Maybe. Just need to figure out how.”
“S’all well and good, but I think you need t’calm yourself down.” He took the courage to kiss my forehead, and paused for a moment, waiting for my reaction. I don’t know what came over me, but I nuzzled further into him, and I felt his chest, which sort of seemed tight, suddenly relax, a long breath escaping his mouth. “You’re always taking care of others, darlin’. Time for someone to take care o’ you.”
My first instinct was to protest. “But-”
“But nothin’. We’re gonna stay here, and when you’re calm, we’ll go back inside and I’m gonna stay with you. Then we can take a proper crack at del Marco. Got it?”
I deflated, nodding. “Yes, sir.” I giggled at the end, which earned a deep chuckle from him too.
“Deputy, you make me feel old sometimes.” We sat like that in silence, until Beau felt that I’d calmed down enough. He helped me up, tidying away the blanket and extinguishing the fire, switching on his phone torch so we had a light to help us walk. When we got to my bed, he gestured for me to lay down, probably as a ‘ladies first’, and I did. He got in next to me, making sure that the covers were snugly over me before drawing me closer, his arm around my waist protectively. My back facing his chest, his breath on the back of my neck.
It all felt so unfamiliar.
“G’night, Belle.”
“Night, Sheriff.”
The next morning, I woke up slowly, humming with a groggy smile, expecting to feel the warmth of Beau’s arm around me, acting as a shield against the rest of the world. But I didn’t. My eyelashes fluttered and my eyes opened, and instead I found us both at the far ends of the bed, turned away from each other. My stomach went hurtling down like it was a rollercoaster. I didn’t even know why. Perhaps it was the lack of physical contact I’d gotten over the past few years. Maybe I’m touched starved. Yeah, that’s it.
I got out of bed, going into the bathroom to change into Lucy’s leather jacket, smiling at the nice burgundy colour. Underneath that was a black tank top and jeans, to complete the look. I strolled out, finding Beau also fully dressed, adjusting his hat as he turned around with a grin. “G’morning, Belle. Sleep ok?”
“Just peachy.” I nodded, not mentioning the swooping feeling I felt when I woke up and didn’t find him right next to me, the detail that I think he missed. But neither of us missed the brief sweep of our eyes down and up each other. “Let’s go.”
At the department, I walked into the interrogation room with Beau and Jenny, where del Campo was sat with a smug smirk. “Finally, you brought her here.” He gestured to me, his New York accent lilting. “I only got one thing to say. One thing only.”
“And what’s that?” Jenny asked, her expression stony.
“It better be good, otherwise you’re lookin’ at a lotta jail time there, buddy.” Beau seethed, while I remained silent, waiting for this guy to say something.
Del Campo leaned forward, his fingers drumming on the table and seriously asking me to snap them off or at least break them with my bare hands. “Markham Leeds sends his regards.”
My patience broke. My hand clenched into a fist. My thoughts clouded over and were replaced with waves of pure, seething red. My breathing became laboured as I processed the information, which only took the feeling to new heights. I scoffed, about to blow a fuse. Which I did. My fist slammed down onto the table hard, sending a loud and resounding bang through the room that made everyone jump. This was my final straw. I had him. I finally had him.
“MARKHAM, THAT BASTARD!”
