I'm relieved that she knows what we're getting into but wish that she wasn't in a position to just assume that. But wishing only goes so far and then it's all about actions. I've done a lot of things to that Maggie and people like her (ie: people not me) don't have to deal with those things. I'm not talking morally grey things, there's only one of those things I've done and I hate myself every day for it, but just things like this. Rolling up on a mass murder suspect who turned several kids into soup so that other people don't have to take these types of risks.
"Let's roll," I said, standing up from the table. I heard Bonnie giggle from inside my pocket and I was pretty sure it was mostly her laughing at me rather than laughing with me. Heading out of Mac's I held the door open for Maggie before nodding to my ride. The Blue Beetle had been gone for years but part of me still looks for that first when searching for my vehicle. The parking lot had exactly two vehicles. one of them was an old army jeep and the other a pristine white Escalade. "What to guess which one is our ride?"
