Selene chuckled softly, “That’s not what I thought you meant...I went to see Kalia Lei.”

"What's she doing here?" James scrunched up his face. "I thought she hated traveling alone. So is she defecting too? She better not be coming back for me. I am NOT going back to the Empress' mansion."

"No, no one is taking you away. Don't worry about that." Clint reassured him.

"She's not bad... I always thought she'd defect sooner than later. Should have seen the crap they put her through when she lost her leg in that accident. Wasn't a war wound, was just sucky luck." James explained. "She's got a way with words, they call her an interrogator, but she seems to make people just want to tell her things. Did she try to interrogate you about something? You have that look that people had after seeing her. I think that's why she's single, pretty as she is."

“It was hard seeing her...she asked things I didn’t want to remember or I couldn’t about Jackson and K’n’zy. But I don’t want you to worry about it.” Selene said as she knelt down in front of James and placed her hands on his shoulder. “No one is ever going to take you away from us. I won’t let them and god help them if they try.”

"Thank you." He said with a smile and hugged her again. "Well if she's here to try and help... let her help. She's good at finding things out." James shrugged his shoulders. "She was one of the few who weren't having sex with everyone else or trying to one up everyone."

"That's kind of helpful to know." Clint replied and raised an eyebrow. "So... you think she's trustworthy?"

"If it was anyone else, then you shouldn't trust them as far as you can throw them, but yeah she's trustworthy. Just don't let her get under your skin too much. That's what she was trained to do. We never could lie around her, she'd always figure it out or get us to confess." James blushed slightly. "Like when I shattered one of the Empress's favorite vases. She found out but covered for me."

"Then I'm feeling slightly better about this... " Clint sighed and looked at his communicator. "I'll... call Jack. Meanwhile... Selene, want me to make you a drink or something? Relax a bit before he comes over?"

“If only I could get drunk.” Selene said with a pain expression and then shook her head no. She hugged James and then pulled back to smile at him. “I think James has be covered...what do you say we go make some tea and see just how good of a gardener Alice actually is?

"Sounds good..." Clint said as he walked over and put his arm around Selene. "You know... let's not call Jack tonight. Now that I'm home the last thing I need is to feel like I'm still working." he looked at James. "I got my son, my wife... my dog somewhere... probably hunting something."

“And what do you plan to do?” Selene inquired as she leaned against him.

"Hold you both, never let go..." Clint replied simply. "No other plan really needed. I'm not going to let Kalia Lei or Jackson or K'n'zy or anyone screw up our peace. One night of relative boredom that's all I ask."

“Movie night on my favorite pillow.” Selene said with a grin. “James can pick the movie.”

"Robin Hood Men in Tights!" James said with a laugh. "I think we all need a laugh."

Clint gave him a thumb's up. "I am really starting to love this kid."

The movie was so ridiculous she couldn't really watch it but it didn't matter Clint and James seemed to enjoy it. Laying there with her head on Clint's lap and James tucked in against Clint's other side she fell asleep listening to the sound of their laughter. The sound far more enjoyable then any movie or any other sound.
