”You kicked us to the curb. You might as well be walking behind the circus elephants because dumping us for your boy toy? That’s a hard act to follow.” Kenzi dislodged the cleaver from the butcher block and resumed chopping.
”I know.” Bo nodded, her head still lowered. ”I’m here to make amends.”
”What’s your scheme, Bo?”
”This past year was the worst of my life.”
”I wouldn’t call what we just lived through entirely a pleasure cruise, Bo.” Kenzi ran through visions of Lauren’s night terrors, the parade of rented rooms overlooking the corner of heartbreak and grief, and the thoroughly antiseptic life regularly swept clean of any attachments. Memories were for suckers.
”I need my best friend back.”
”Until destiny comes calling again. Then, what? You’re gonna drop us and your succu-pants for the next Super Hot Fae that shows up?”
”It wasn’t like that…” Bo bowed her head. ”Okay, maybe it was.”
One by one, Kenzi swept the ingredients into a large black pan, moving the food around as it sizzled. ”Did you ever wonder why we left?”
”I’ve had a lot of time to think about it.”
Kenzi lowered the heat to a simmer and stepped away from the stovetop, crossing her arms upon her chest. ”And what did you come up with?”
”That I could have made better choices. Ones that didn’t alienate you or make you doubt my loyalty.” Bo’s shoulders slumped forward as she searched for a north star to lead her out of the clichéd apology she was on the brink of stepping onto. She searched Kenzi’s expression for a glimmer of understanding, finding very little of it.
”I searched the world for you, Kenzi.” Bo stood slowly, wincing from the pain in her body. ”I can’t take back all the stupid things I did and saying sorry for everything feels cheap. I’m sorry about Hale. I’m sorry about Massimo, who is dead by the way.”
”Good, he had it coming.”
That was one thing both Bo and Kenzi agreed on.
”There’s no scheme here, grand or otherwise.” Bo inched forward toward Kenzi, reaching out to touch her arm. ”Whatever it takes to prove myself to you, just tell me.”
Kenzi recoiled. ”You broke my heart, Bo. You. The last person I’d ever expect to. Lauren’s my sister now.”
