perpetual anticipation is good for the soul but it's bad for the heart

One hour. Back here.

( He sets his phone aside. )

We have an hour.

[beanchaointe]

Then we should pack.

[She eyes Malia's daisy dukes.]

Do you have anything for cold?

[The other woman glances down and groans. "I'll go shopping. I'll be back in time." She starts to head towards the door and Lydia lifts her head.]

Malia, did you tell Peter?

["I did. He was less than pleased."

Lydia nods, waiting until she disappears out the door before sighing.]

Well maybe we'll have that in our favor too.

[illtempered]

( Malia's "boyfriend" also follows. )

Peter would follow Malia to Siberia just to drag her back.

[beanchaointe]

And if he happens to kill a few evil witches on the way, all the better for us. He might even make sure Parrish gets back safe.

[Malia seems to be the only person Peter has close-to-human reactions for so who knows what might happen.]

Unfortunately, we can't one hundred percent count on him because the only person who can predict Peter Hale is Peter Hale.

[illtempered]

Then we rely on us.

( Each other, and the kumbaya that comes with it. Also )

Did you know about Malia and the small town deputy?

[beanchaointe]

Oh, you didn't?

[Lydia smirks.]

She claims he's not her boyfriend but he's the only person she's sleeping with and she flew him out to New Orleans because she missed him.

[So he's basically her boyfriend, Malia is just Malia.]

Parrish is being very patient.

[illtempered]

He's here for her. And for you.

( He sees that, too, but, he also sees what's brewing between the lawyer and his best friend. )

We all are.

[beanchaointe]

I know. And I appreciate it.

[She really does. She couldn't imagine her choices if she were doing this alone.]

I should probably pack. We don't have a lot of time before David comes back.

[illtempered]

Yes, to the blue peacoat.

( If she were wondering. )
