"Pieces Of My Heart Held Together By Your Love." BJ read for the millionth time.

She had put the pieces together after her mom left her alone. That was two weeks ago and she was still no closer to what she would say to Tyler.

"What to do? What to do?" BJ whispered to the stuffed animal that sat on the pillow next to her. "You are no help what so ever." She picked up little bandit and hugged. "I guess maybe I should just call her and sort of bring it up."

BJ sat the dog back down and she picked up her cell phone.

"Hello," Tyler said on the other end.

"Hey sweetheart," BJ replied as she lay down next to little bandit. "What are you up too?"

"Well, I'm about ready to cook me some dinner. Then go and do more paper work." Tyler opened the TV dinner she had chosen.

"What is it tonight? Chicken or frozen pizza?" BJ asked as she heard Tyler play with the plastic over the phone.

"You know me so well, and it's a meatloaf dinner tonight." Tyler turned and popped the meal in the microwave. "You got some papers today from your lawyer. Do you want me to send them to you?"

"Can you open it up and see what it's about." BJ fiddled with the blue ribbon on the stuffed animal next to her.

"Sure hold on while I go and get them. I put them in your office up stairs." Tyler sat the phone down and rushed upstairs. It only took her a minute and she was back. "Okay, it says something about an increase of your house taxes and he is wondering how you want to pay it."

BJ listened to the suggestions Tyler read out loud to her, "what one do you think is best?"

"Why are you asking me? This is your house and your taxes." Tyler growled as she tossed the paper on the counter next to her.

"Boy we are in a good mood. You want to tell me why the sudden outburst?" BJ closed her eyes. "Especially over something like this. You know that the house is yours as much as it is mine."

Tyler stood there in silence. She had no clue where the anger came from.

"Baby, are still there?" BJ asked softly.

"Yes, I'm sorry. I don't know where that came from." Tyler heard the beeping of the microwave and walked over and opened it up. She grabbed the meal, but instead of putting it on the counter next to her silverware she tossed into the sink. All of a sudden not hungry.

"If something was bothering you, you would come and talk to me wouldn't you?" BJ waited as she heard Tyler take a deep breath and let it out slowly.

"Yes, of course I would," Tyler mumbled.

"Good, now I know that this was my house, but now it's our house and I want you to help with the decisions that concern our household." BJ stated calmly.

Tyler's heart started to beat fast and her mind was doing double time. She didn't understand why what BJ said made her head spin.

"Tyler?" BJ sat up wondering what was going on in her lover's head. "Does that bother you that I want you and me to share things like this?"

"What?" Tyler asked only catching the last part of what BJ said.

"I asked you if it bothers you that I want you and me to share things, like the house and the cars and everything in our lives? Forever?" BJ replied hoping that Tyler would get the hint that nothing was going to happen to them.

"No it doesn't bother me at all. I feel honored and," Tyler stopped.

"And?" BJ asked is a soft whisper.

Tyler walked out of the kitchen and stood in the living room. She looked at Bandit who was curled up on the couch. Then she looked at all the pictures around the room that had been put up since she'd moved in.

"I'm scared," Tyler barely said loud enough for BJ to hear.

BJ felt tears form in her eyes. She wished that she was there with Tyler instead of thousands of miles away. "Baby what are you scared of?"

Tyler sat down next to Bandit and began to scratch his belly. "I don't know. I've never been more happy in my life."

"Maybe that's what got you scared?" BJ wiped the tears that ran down her face.

Tyler spied a picture of BJ, Barbara, Leo and Mike. She had taken the picture the day they had gotten the building for the center. Then she saw a picture of herself and her parents. Then one of her and her Grandfather. Tears formed in her eyes and fell down her checks. "No I'm not afraid of being happy. I'm afraid that it will all be gone."

"What do you mean honey?" BJ sniffed as she tried to keep herself in check.

Tyler stood up and began to pace, "everything that has ever meant anything to me has died and in every circumstance I might have been able to do something that could have helped them."

"I want you to listen to me," BJ slapped the bed spread next to her. "There was nothing you could have done. You were a little girl when the accident happened."
"What about my Grandfather?" Tyler yelled out.

"What about your Grandfather?" BJ yelled back.

"I called him and had him reschedule his doctor's appointment. If I hadn't done that they would have found something. They could have stopped it." Tyler cried as she kicked one of Bandit's tennis balls across the floor.

"Bullshit," BJ spat back. "It was your Grandfather's time. Nothing you could have done would have made a difference."

"Yes there was," Tyler screamed.

"Okay, what could you have done?" BJ asked, "I want you to also remember the girl you happen to be helping out when you called your Grandfather to have him reschedule. Would that person be the person she is today if you hadn't stayed with her?"

"That doesn't matter. My Grandfather would be here with me now." Tyler cried out in pain as she headed back to the kitchen.

"Then you would be blaming yourself over that girls death." BJ stated matter of fact . "Since when is one life more important then anyone else's?"

Tyler couldn't answer that and it stopped her in her tracks. She looked down at her feet and shook her head. Drops of tears landed on her shirt.

"Sweetheart, you need to forgive yourself. Life has so much to offer you. The most important is the love I have for you. We will be together for eternity just you and me, loving each other." BJ wiped her own tears off her face.

"I really wish you were here with me. I miss you so much and I don't want to be alone." The upset blonde sobbed.

"Tyler, do you have on that necklace I gave you?" BJ asked. Concerned for her lover she picked up the hotel's phone and dialed her mom's extension. She quickly, but quietly told her mom to call Mike and Leo and have them go over and check on Tyler.

"Yes," Tyler answered back as she pulled the necklace out of her shirt. "I have it right here."

"Open it up," BJ ordered softly. "What do you see?"

"You and me. In each others arms." Tyler ran the tip of her fingernail along BJ's face.

"Forever, is what I get out of that picture. You and me growing old and doing that until we die in each other's arms." BJ jumped a little when she heard a soft knock on her door. Knowing that it was her mom she didn't bother to toss on a robe when she climbed out of bed.

"Promise?" Tyler leaned against the wall and slid down until she had an arm wrapped around her legs.

"Tyler, I agreed to be your wife. That is not something I take lightly. You hold my soul and my heart with you wherever you go. The love I have for you grows with every second of the day." BJ waved her mom in and shut the door. She raised a finger to her mom when Barb gave her a look as to what was going on.

"I'm being silly aren't I?" Tyler shook her head as she rested it against the wall behind her.

"No, you're feelings aren't silly. You have had some pretty good reasons in your life to think the way you are right now, but I want you to know that they are untrue. People die, that is a fact of life. It was your Grandfather's time to die. You couldn't do anything because you were where you were supposed to be and that was to be with that girl who's time it wasn't." BJ slumped back on the bed.

Tyler took a deep breath and let it out slowly as she closed her eyes. "I guess I want to save everyone who I care about."

"That is how most of the people in the world feel. You just have to realize that you can't save everyone, you just can only save the ones you were meant to save." BJ could tell that she was getting through to Tyler. She just hoped it was enough to break through the doubt and guilt.

"Like you," Tyler smiled as she thought of BJ's loving smile and tender kisses.

"Yes baby, like me." BJ nodded as a small grin crossed her face.

"I love you," Tyler said as she saw Bandit hop off the couch and walk over to her. She unfolded her legs so the dog could sit in between her thighs.

"And I love you," BJ sighed. "Will you do me a favor?"

"I will do anything for you," Tyler replied as she dodged the wet tongue aimed at her face.

"If you ever start to think like this again will you please talk to me." BJ begged. "I want to know how you are feeling and I want to help." BJ felt her mom sit next to her and grab her hand. She looked up and gave her a small smile.

"I will. I'm sorry for yelling at you before. I honestly didn't understand what the hell made me do that. Now I do and maybe I should talk to one of the councilors about it too." Tyler replied as she stood up.

"That's not a bad idea and don't worry about the yelling. It happens sometimes." BJ squeezed her mom's hand.

"True, but I'm still sorry." Tyler walked to the front window when she heard a car door close. "Did you call Mike and Leo?"

"I had mom call them," BJ confessed. "I was worried about you and I didn't want you to be by yourself."

"You are so good to me and I'm never totally by myself. I've got you right next to my heart holding it and taking care of me." Tyler opened the front door right before Leo rang the bell.

"That is so true and it's the same for me." BJ yawned loudly.

"I think my dear you need to get to bed." Tyler waved her friends in and smiled up at their concerned faces.

"I will stay longer if you need me." BJ stated with another yawn.

"I will always need you," Tyler said loudly, "but you are pretty busy and need your sleep. I will call you when I get to work tomorrow."

"Okay, if you're sure?" BJ sat up and leaned against her mom.

Tyler followed Mike and Leo into the kitchen. She shrugged her shoulders when Leo lifted her dinner out of the sink. "I'm sure. You get a good night's sleep and I will talk to you tomorrow. I love you and miss you." Tyler turned so she was facing out the backdoor. "Thanks babe for setting me straight. Again."

"Tyler Jones you better not be straight. Especially after half of the things we've done together." BJ teased her lover a bit.

"Ohh baby what about the other half?" Tyler giggled.

"Lets not go there right now. You have company and Mom is sitting right next to me." BJ blushed a little when her mom winked at her.

"Okay, tomorrow night we will continue this conversation in explicate detail." Tyler kissed the necklace pendant before she tucked it back under her shirt.

"Deal. I love you and I will talk to you tomorrow." BJ responded before she hung up.

Barb waited a few minutes watching her daughter as she laid there and thought. "She finally talked did she?"

"Yep, and it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, but it wasn't a cake walk either. She said she might go and talk with one of the councilors." BJ informed her mom as she sat up.

"Good," Barb stood up and headed for the door. "You need to get to bed. Tomorrow is going to be a long day."

"Okay, good night," BJ walked behind her mom so she could lock the door.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Tyler knocked on the door before she opened the door, "good morning Jackie."

"Hey ya boss, good morning to you too." Jackie smiled as she hammered a nail in a wall. "What can I do for you?"

"Well, I was sorta wondering if I might talk to you about something?" Tyler crossed her arms across her chest.

Jackie put the hammer down and turned to look at Tyler. "Is this about business or something else?"

"Something else," Tyler started to pace.

"Is it personal?" Jackie asked as she sat in her chair.

Tyler nodded her head, "yes. It's about when I was little."

"First I should tell you that you might want to find someone else. You are my boss." Jackie acknowledged.

"I know and I won't hold anything against you if I don't like what you say, but I need to get this out and start to live my life for BJ and myself." Tyler walked around the small office looking at all the pictures Jackie had up.

"Okay, then why don't you have a seat and we can begin." Jackie motioned to a chair.

"Would you mind if I stood?" Tyler asked.

Jackie shook her head, "do whatever you feel is appropriate for you to be able to talk."

Tyler took a deep breath and told Jackie all about the car accident and how she felt guilty being the only survivor. Then how she found her Grandfather dead after she had called and told him that she couldn't take him to the doctors because she was needed somewhere else.

The two of them talked all morning and into part of the afternoon.

"Tyler, I think we've done enough today. You need to go home and think about what we've talked about." Jackie drank the last of her coffee and stood up.

"You're right." Tyler wiped her eyes. "Thanks for listening to me. I really appreciate it."

Jackie nodded and smiled. "that's why I'm here. I know we only scratched the surface about what you have been going through. If you want we can set a schedule and talk more let me know."

"I will," Tyler opened the door. "See you tomorrow."

"Okay, bye boss." Jackie waved as the door closed.

Tyler walked to her office and gathered up her stuff. When she picked up her cell phone she saw that BJ had tried to call her while she was in with Jackie. Looking at the time she decided that she would wait until she got home before she called.

"Hey Tyler, how are you feeling today?" Leo asked as he walked into her office.

"Ever heard of knocking?" Tyler replied as she sat her cell phone down on her desk.

Leo looked at her then at the door. "It was open."

"Still doesn't mean that you should walk right in." Tyler leaned back in her chair and rested her hands on her stomach.

"Shut up and are you going to answer my question?" Leo placed his hands on his hips.

Tyler smiled up at her friend, "I feel a lot better. I talked all morning with Jackie and I feel lighter somehow."

"Great," Leo slapped his hands together. "I'm so glad that you talked to someone about it."

"Me too," Tyler agreed. "I wish I had done it a long time ago."

"So what is on the agenda for this afternoon?" Leo strolled over to a chair and sat down.

"I'm going home to call my wife, but first I'm going to send her a great big bouquet of flowers." Tyler reached for her phonebook.

"Ohh, what kind?" Leo asked excitedly.

Tyler found the yellow pages for several thousand florists. "Which one should I choose?"

Leo reached over and grabbed the phone he dialed a number and handed Tyler the receiver. "Close that book. Theses guys are the best."

Tyler laughed, "you would know."

"Of course I would. I only do the best." Leo looked at her with a cocky smile.

Tyler raised an eyebrow, "I'll make sure and tell Mike that."

"Tell Mike what?" Mike asked as he walked into the room.

"He says that he only does the best. Is that true?" Tyler asked as she waited for someone to answer the phone.

Mike looked from Tyler to Leo, "well, I do believe that is the whole truth. I am the best ever made."

"See," Leo stuck his tongue out at Tyler who just rolled her eyes.

Tyler was about to add a comment when the phone stopped ringing and someone answered. "Hello, and yes I'd like to place an order. I would like three dozen red roses delivered to my wife who happens to be in Miami."

Mike looked over at Leo, "what is she doing?"

"Telling BJ how much she loves her with flowers," Leo whispered with a smile.

Mike nodded his head, "gotcha. What do you say you and me have a nice quiet dinner in front of a fire?"

"Sounds like a great idea. I know of a little store that has some wonderful little sandwiches that will be perfect." Leo leaned over and kissed Mike softly on the lips.

Mike closed his eyes and smiled, "love you."

"Love you too," Leo stood up and waved at Tyler who waved back.

"I should be home in about an hour." Mike said as he crossed his feet at the ankles.

Leo grabbed his keys out of his pocket, "okay, I'll get everything set up." He blew Mike a kiss and walked out whistling.

Mike listened as Tyler gave the florist BJ's hotel name and room number then said good bye and hung up.

"Hey buddy what's up?" Tyler asked as she leaned back in her chair.

"I just stopped by to make sure everything is okay." Mike replied.

Tyler let out a big sigh, "everything is good. I talked with Jackie most of the day and worked some things out."

"That's great," Mike happily responded. "Well I need to get going. Leo and I are planning a nice romantic dinner."

"Get out of here, have fun. I'm going to go as soon as I grab my things." Tyler stood up.

Mike rose up out of his seat, "okay, I'm gone. I'll see you tomorrow."

"Bye, and Mike?" Tyler looked up at her friend. "Thanks for everything."

"Hey, that's what friends are for." Mike winked, "I'll see you tomorrow."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"What a day," BJ mumbled as she rested her back against the elevator wall.

Barbara copied her daughter, "you are so right. I can't believe he still can't take a damn hint."

"I plan on talking to Felix tomorrow. I've had enough. Thomas went over the line today when he grabbed my boob during taping." BJ replied as she shivered as she remembered her costars hands on her body.

"Why didn't you talk to him before we left?" Barb asked her daughter as the elevator stopped and beeped to let them know they reached their floor.

"I tried to find him, but he had already left right after the scene was shot." BJ said as she walked down the hall to her room.

"Oh, okay," Barbara stepped next to her daughter. "You want to get something to eat?"

"Sounds good," BJ opened her door. As she walked into her room her sense of smell was assaulted by the three bouquet of roses sitting on a table in the middle of the room. "What in the world?"

"My lord," Barb said as she stepped up to carefully smell the beautiful flowers.

BJ circled the flowers with a big smile. She noticed a small card sticking out from one of the bouquet and quickly grabbed it up and opened it.

TO MY ANGEL WITH ALL MY LOVE

Tyler

"I am a lucky girl," BJ grinned as she held the card next to her heart.

"Tyler?" Barb asked already knowing the answer by the stupid smile on her daughters face.

BJ nodded, "yes."

"Why don't you give her a call while I run to my room and get changed. I'll be back in a few minutes." Barbara walked to the door and stepped out.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Leo stepped into Tyler's office after he softly knocked on the doorframe seeing she was on the phone. He smiled at her and stood in front of her desk, and waited until she hung up. "So how many times does this make?"

"Well," Tyler leaned back in her chair, "not counting the first time this will be four."

"Four times? My god woman you are going to be poor by the time she comes back." Leo teased as he grabbed the picture Tyler had on her desk.

"It makes her happy," Tyler shrugged her shoulders. "So I will send her roses every week until she comes home."

Leo nodded his head, "do you think she'll be able to make it for the opening?"

"Not sure yet," Tyler sighed. "I hope so. It's been like forever since I've seen her."

"I know," Leo looked at his friend and saw the far away look in her eyes. He knew Tyler was missing BJ and he wanted to let her know that he had talked to BJ and that she was coming, but she wanted to surprise Tyler and show up at the party tonight.

Tyler blinked a few times, "so baldly what do you need? Or did you just come in here to bug me?"

Leo put the picture back where he got it and grabbed a rubber band. He stretched it and flung it at Tyler who caught it before it hit her face, "here I came over to see if you wanted to have lunch and this is how I get treated."

"You know if I treated you any different you'd think I was mad at you." Tyler stood up and walked over to stand next to Leo. "You know I love you more than my luggage."

Leo snorted, "you better. I've seen your luggage."

"Come on, lunch will be on me." Tyler slapped Leo on the back and walked out the door.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Tyler stood at the door and watched all the people moving around. Most were the new employees that would start working the following Monday and get the center all ready for opening. Which was going to happen a week from Monday.

"Hey Tyler," Jackie said as she stepped up next to the small blonde.

"Hey, you having fun?" Tyler asked.

Jackie took a sip of her drink and nodded, "yes, it's nice to know that the center will be opening soon."

"Yes it is," Tyler agreed.

"BJ not able to make it?" Jackie asked.

Tyler shook her head, "No, I tried all day to get a hold of her. All I have been able to do is leave her messages."

"That's too bad," Jackie patted Tyler on the back. "I would like to introduce you to my wife," she said as an attractive red head approached, "Jennifer Barstow."

"It's nice to met you," Tyler replied as she shook Jennifer's hand. "How long have you two been married?"

"Going on four years," Jennifer smiled at her wife. "It's nice to meet you as well."

The three talked for a few minutes until Tyler saw Leo waving at her.

"Excuse me, it seems that I am needed." Tyler said before she made her way through the crowd over to where Leo was standing.

"I need your help in the kitchen," Leo said as he grabbed Tyler by the hand.

Tyler let Leo guide her to the kitchen, "okay what's the problem?"

"The fridge stopped ." Leo informed her with a shake of his head.

Tyler looked at her friend, "what do you want me to do about it?"

"Fix it," Leo pointed to the back of the kitchen appliance.

"I think you have the wrong lesbian. I don't fix things." Tyler put her hands on her hips and tapped her foot.

"Oh come on butch get back there and kick something." Leo grabbed Tyler and shoved her towards the refrigerator.

"Butch?" Tyler raised her eyebrow at Leo as she was pushed behind the big refrigerator.

Leo watched as Tyler stood and looked around at what to do. There was nothing wrong with the equipment he just needed her out of the room long enough for BJ to come in and not be noticed. They had decided that everyone didn't need to see the happy reunion. "Find anything?"

"Are you nuts? There is absolutely nothing back here but the plug in cord." Tyler pointed to the black cord. "I have no clue as to why this thing doesn't work?"

Leo smiled when he saw the door open and BJ's head peek around the door. He waved her in and gave her a quick kiss on the cheek, "have fun." He whispered softly.

BJ winked and shoved Leo out into the hallway. She moved around the room and stopped when she had a perfect view of Tyler scratching her head.

"Damn it Leo, we will have to call the repair man to come in and get a look at this thing." Tyler fumed.

"Well maybe if you see if it's all the way plugged in?" BJ said.

Tyler turned to look down at the plug and noticed that it wasn't all the way in the outlet. "Leo, even you could have done that."

"True he could have, but it takes a woman brains sometimes to figure out what's wrong." BJ smiled as she saw Tyler's body snap up and bolt from behind the appliance.

"BJ, you're here." Tyler stopped and looked at her lover. She had on a light blue strapless dress with a simple diamond necklace around her neck.

BJ nodded, "surprise."

"Surprise indeed," Tyler clapped her hands together before she moved to her wife. She grabbed BJ around the neck and pulled her down for a kiss. "God I've missed you."

BJ lost herself in the soft feeling of Tyler's lips. She rolled her head back, "I've missed your touch."

Tyler ran her hands up BJ's back and slowly unzipped the zipper that held up the dress she had on in place. "I want you so much."

"Ohh, yes," BJ groaned as Tyler let the dress fall to the floor.

Tyler guided BJ so she was next to the big cutters table that stood in the middle of the room. She grabbed BJ by the waist and sat her on the top of it in one swift motion. "You feel so good."

"Mmmm," BJ wrapped her legs around Tyler's waist. Her body was on fire and she needed Tyler to extinguish the flames.

Tyler slipped her hands in BJ's underwear and squeezed the muscular butt checks as she kissed her way down the exquisite long neck. Feeling pert nipples against her own chest Tyler leaned back and looked at the perfectly round breast that begged her to caress and make love too. "I'm going to show you what I've been dreaming about."

Just as she was about to suck one of BJ's nipples into her mouth Leo rushed in.

"Excuse me," Leo slapped a hand over his eyes. "Tyler I really hate to disturb you, but we have people waiting to meet you and the caterers need to get back in here."

Tyler took a deep breath to stop her heart from beating so loudly in her ears, "okay. Give us a few more minutes and we will be right out."

"No problem," Leo turned around and left as quick as he entered.

BJ rested her head on Tyler's shoulder. "This isn't really the place for this anyway."

"You're right," Tyler removed her hands, but she didn't move away. "I'm so glad you are here."

"I wanted to surprise you," BJ kissed Tyler's neck.

"It was the best surprise I have ever gotten," Tyler gave BJ one last squeeze then stepped back. "Let me help you get back into your dress."

BJ jumped off the table and walked over and pulled up the article of clothing around her body. "I really liked it better when you helped me out of it."

Tyler helped pull the dress up and zipped it into place. She gave BJ's bare back a light kiss right between the shoulder blades. "I did too."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"When do you have to be back?" Tyler asked as she pulled her jeep into the driveway.

BJ opened her eyes and turned her head to look at Tyler. "Tomorrow afternoon. I got lucky when Felix had to run up to New York for the weekend. Otherwise I would not have been able to come."

Tyler turned off the jeep's engine and leaned over and gave BJ a soft kiss. "Lucky us."

"Mmm hmm, " BJ laced her hand around Tyler's neck to keep her from moving. "You know what we've never done before?"

"What?" Tyler whispered as she got lost in BJ's blue eyes.

BJ kissed Tyler lips and then across her cheek to an ear. "We've never made love in the car."

"No we haven't," Tyler slipped a hand up BJ's dress and caressed the smooth thigh.

BJ reached down and pulled the lever so her seat would recline. As she went backwards she guided Tyler off the drivers seat so the smaller woman could lay on top of her. She reached in between their bodies and started to unbutton Tyler's shirt. "You looked stunning in this black silk shirt, but you will look better out of it."

Tyler raised herself up so BJ could pull her shirt free from her pants. "Thanks," she leaned down and placed a kiss on BJ's mouth and along the jaw line. "Let's get you out of this dress."

"Lets," BJ arched her back as Tyler nipped the pulse point on her neck.

Tyler quickly unzipped the dress and lowered it to BJ's waist. "Glorious," she ran her tongue around the nipple before she sucked it into her mouth.

"Ohh, God yes," BJ groaned as she grabbed Tyler's butt and squeezed it as she brought her hips up so she could grind her center against Tyler's body. "I want you to make me scream."

Tyler nipped the nipple she had in her mouth before she let go with a pop. "I'll make you scream all right." She lifted the dresses material up and gathered it to one side and in one swift motion she slide her fingers past BJ's underwear and into the wet center.

BJ's head rolled back and her eyes closed as her body started to move against Tyler's fingers. The fire that wasn't extinguished earlier flared up and through her body making her shudder. The flame built so fast and was so intense that the world could have come to an end and she wouldn't have cared one bit until it was put out.

"I need more," BJ moaned loudly.

On her next thrust Tyler added a third finger. She used her feet against the car floor as she quickened her movements as she felt BJ's center tighten. She rested her whole body on top of BJ and used her free hand to move some hair that had covered the tall actresses face, "you are so beautiful."

BJ let go of Tyler's butt. She moved her hands up to the strong back and held on as an intense orgasm grabbed ahold of her and sent her flying. "OHHH YES, YES,"

Tyler nearly screamed along with her as BJ's nails scratched along her back leaving small red welts. "Damn," she hissed.

They lay there breathing hard just feeling the connection they shared.

Tyler slowly slipped her fingers out of BJ and brought them up to taste. "Just like I remember. The best."

BJ watched Tyler clean off her fingers and it made her hungry to taste Tyler. "I want to taste you and feel you explode in my mouth."

"How are you going to do that in such a cramped area?" Tyler asked softly placing soft kisses over BJ's sweaty skin.

"Like this," BJ pulled the door handle and opened the door. Using her dress as knee pads she knelt on the ground. "Come her." She leaned back enough so Tyler could rest her legs outside of the car.

Tyler grinned as BJ undid her belt and unzipped her pants. "Maybe we should move this into the house."

"No, I want you right here, right now." BJ hooked her thumbs around the waistband of the black dress pants Tyler had on. "Up."

"Yes, ma'am," Tyler lifted her butt up off the passenger seat.

BJ tugged Tyler's pants and underwear off until they were a pile on the ground. She reached around to hold Tyler close to her. She kissed her way across the smaller woman's collarbone as she cupped Tyler's butt in her hands.

Tyler wrapped her legs around BJ's waist. She slowly moved her center against BJ's taut stomach. Her body shivered uncontrollably as BJ cupped her breast and pinched her nipples. "I like that."

"So do I," BJ mumbled against Tyler's skin, "But now I want you to lean back."

Tyler scooted her butt closer to the edge of the seat and leaned back. She rested her elbow on the divider case in between the seat.

"Perfect," BJ said as she started to kiss her way down Tyler's body.

Tyler tossed her head back when she felt BJ's tongue slip through her wet curls and graze her clit. Her whole body lifted off the seat. "Oh BJ."

BJ lost herself in the taste and texture of Tyler's center. She could feel her wife breathing harder and hear her moaning. She reached down and entered Tyler's pulsating center with two fingers. BJ moved her fingers slow and easy making sure her whole finger was inside before she would pull it out all the way.

"You're teasing me," Tyler growled.

"Gonna make this the best you've ever had," BJ replied before she sucked Tyler's swollen clit into mouth.

"Ohh damn," Tyler body bucked up off the seat.

BJ started to move her fingers faster as they were coated with Tyler juices as she circled Tyler's clit with her tongue. "Hmmmmm." She hummed.

"OH YES," Tyler screamed as the vibrations hit her and sent her over the edge.

BJ didn't stop her movements instead she intensified them. Sucking harder and stroking her tongue faster, as her fingers went deep inside Tyler and out back again, then back deep inside her.

Tyler stiffened and groaned as a second orgasm flared up as soon as the first one was ending. Stars lit up behind her closed eyes.

BJ stopped her fingers, but left them inside Tyler. She licked around them cleaning all the sweet juices off them and off of Tyler.

"You have to stop," Tyler said as she tried to move away from BJ's tongue.

"You taste so good though," BJ responded with a smile as she licked her lips.

Tyler laughed at the child like look BJ had on her face. "You look like a kid in a candy store."

"You are my candy store," BJ wiggled her eyebrows.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"So how many do we have now?" Tyler asked as she shuffled papers around her desk looking for a pen.

"We have three mothers and their children," Leo answered as he handed Tyler his pen.

"Thanks," Tyler signed her name on the top paper Leo handed her as soon as he walked on the door. "How many all together?"

"Three mom's and five children," Leo flipped through his papers he had stacked in his hand. "We are expecting another woman this afternoon."

"Okay," Tyler scratched the back of her neck. "What time did they say they were going to drop her off?"

"Around four," Leo cleared his throat. "They warned me about her. I guess she has an attitude and is so rude that they had to force someone to drive her over here."

"Great, what's her case like?" Tyler sat in her chair as she watched Leo rearrange everything in his hands. "Do you need a third hand to help you?"

"I need four hands for this girls file." Leo grasped the thick folder and handed it over to Tyler. "She has been arrested several times, but nothing stuck. She hangs out with one of the gangs around here. The Gray Dragons I think."

"Ohh great, and why do we get this bundle of joy? We are supposed to be helping women who's husband abuse them and teenage runaways that want help." Tyler sat the folder on her lap and skimmed through it.

"Well, apparently she is pregnant. The father it turns out is the head honcho of the Gray Dragons. She just happened to see him and a couple of his friends kill two men for stealing some drugs of theirs. It scared her so bad that she took off and ran to the police." Leo sighed loudly. "This could be trouble."

"Why in the world would they send her here. This girl needs to be under police protection. Not kept in a shelter." Tyler yelled as she tossed the file on top of her desk.

"I tried to tell them that, but nobody wants to keep her." Leo informed her with a small smile.

Tyler looked over at Leo, "she's that bad?"

"Worse," the bald man acknowledged with a shake of his head. "They figure you used to be in the bodyguard business you should be able to keep her safe for them."

"I run a non-profit shelter for abused women and runaways now. I don't have the time to do this. I have other things to do." Tyler stood up and began to pace.

"Yes, but I figure this is the best option there is." Leo stated calmly. "She has no place else to go."

"Why can't they lock her up in jail until the trial?" Tyler asked as she continued to walk back and forth.

"They tried that all ready. She was attacked and nearly killed by one of the other inmates." Leo opened the file and grabbed some pictures. "She almost lost the baby too."

Tyler stopped and turned to Leo. She grabbed the pictures and flipped through them. "Oh my god," she whispered as she saw picture after picture of this blonde haired blue eyed girl with bruises and cuts all over her body.

"That's what I said when I saw them." Leo stood up and walked to his friend. "I know we are out of the protection business, but I feel we need to do something here, for the little bit here." He pointed at the last picture of a black and gray picture of a baby inside it's mother. Waiting for his or her life to begin.

"Damn it, BJ is going to kill me." Tyler replied as she nodded her head and looked at her watch. "She'll be here in an hour. Lets get a room ready for her and I guess one for me too."

"You?" Leo asked.
"Yes, I don't want her to be here without some sort of protection." Tyler put the pictures back in the file.

"We have night staff that can do that," Leo said as he watched Tyler put the folder in her filing cabinet.

"They don't have the experience or the skill to help her if that gang finds out she is here." Tyler walked around her desk. "Come on lets get a cup of coffee before I have you call my wife and tell her what you got me into."

"How's Tyler?" Barbara asked her daughter when she hung up.

"She's fine, but apparently she has this new woman coming in and she needs more than just a safe place to stay awhile." BJ turned to look at her mom.

"What do you mean?" Barb sat down next to BJ.

BJ rested her head against her mom's shoulder, "I guess she saw someone kill someone else and the police tried to protect her, but they didn't do a good job of it. Now they are sending her over to Tyler."

"But she doesn't run that shelter for things like that. They are putting the other occupants in danger ." Barbara replied.

"They don't understand that or they don't care. Who knows what the police think. They just want Tyler to keep her until the trial is over and then they will figure out what to do after." BJ shook her head. "Oh, the real kicker is, I guess she isn't the nicest person in the world."

"Ohh, great her and Tyler will get along so well." Barbara quickly sent up a prayer for Tyler not to kill the woman.

"If she gets into Tyler's face she won't do to much. The woman is pregnant. I guess by her paper work she is due in about a month." BJ informed her mom. "If she wasn't Tyler would drop her on her ass as soon as she smarted off once."

"Poor Tyler," Barb laughed lightly.

"Mom it's not funny," BJ giggled a little.

"I know, but I would love to be a fly on the wall when those two meet." Barb slapped her hands together. "Two strong attitudes crashing together. I wonder who will win?"

BJ looked at her mom in the eyes and raised an eyebrow. "Who do you think?"

"I feel so sorry for that girl," Barb smiled.

"It looks like they are late," Mike said as he stepped outside with Tyler.

Tyler looked down the street, "yep."

"Don't sound so thrilled," Mike leaned up against the side of the building.

Tyler turned her gaze away from the street to look at Mike. "Ohh, I'm so thrilled to have the privilege of babysitting and putting not only myself but the other occupants of this facility in danger. I just hope she understands I will not put up with her obnoxious foul mouth."

"I have a feeling that she will learn that. It may take her a while but she will learn it." Mike gestured to a car that was pulling up next to the curb.

"Here we go," Tyler mumbled loud enough for Mike to hear.

They stood there and watched the door on the driver side pop open and a short round man jump out. He quickly opened the backdoor and stepped back.

"Thanks, fatso." Said a young woman as she got out of the car. "Maybe you better start watching the food network instead of being the food network."

"Just get over there," the man said as he pointed towards Tyler and Mike.

"Fine," the woman held her hands up and walked towards the sidewalk.

Tyler stepped closer and took the woman's suitcase. "Hi, I'm Tyler and this is Mike."

"Hey, you're a cute one. Don't let my looks fool you. I always liked the beauty of both sexes. How about you and me get to know one another." The woman smiled as she ran a finger down Tyler's arm. "You can call me Cait."

"Well, Cait, the rules are simple." Tyler said as she brushed Cait's hand off her arm and walked towards the front door. "You treat everybody here like you would want to be treated. You will be given some chores to do. You must do these chores or you will not be welcome here. Plus you must go into counseling at least two times a week."

"What they hell is this?" Cait stood there looking at Tyler's back. "I'm here to be kept safe not mingle with the poor assed women who can't stick up for themselves."

Tyler turned around and dropped the suitcase on the ground. She stormed at the woman so fast Cait stepped back a couple of steps. "if I ever hear you say anything like that again I will personally toss your butt out of here. These woman didn't come here to have some snot nosed kid belittle them."

"I'm not a kid. I'm twenty-two years old." Cait yelled as she put her hands on her hips.

Tyler stood right in front of Cait, "then maybe you should start acting like twenty-two instead of a five year old who didn't get to go to McDonald's"

"Fuck you," Cait stomped past Tyler and grabbed her suitcase. "I'm not staying here."

"Fine by me, but you have a problem. Nobody wants you. Nobody wants to put up with your attitude. You leave here now your boyfriend and his gang will find you and kill you. I just want you to remember that you are pregnant and that child needs to have the best opportunity to have the life he or she deserves. You are the only one who can do that." Tyler crossed her arms over her chest and waited to see if Cait would make the right decision.

Cait stared at Tyler she knew what the small woman said was true. Wanting more for her unborn child was the only thing that kept her from running off. "Fine I'll stay."

"Good," Tyler walked over and took the suitcase from Cait's hand and walked up the steps and opened the door. "Follow me and make sure you're polite to the other people here."

"You don't have to worry. They won't even know I'm here." Cait walked past Tyler and into the building.

Tyler looked at Mike and the man who drove Cait and rolled her eyes. The two men just looked at one another and sighed.

"This is so not going to be any fun," Tyler mumbled to herself as she hurried to catch up with Cait.

"When will you be coming home?" Tyler asked BJ as she propped up her feet on her desk and closed her eyes.

"I'm hoping we will get finished by the end of next week." BJ informed her wife as she got ready for bed. "How's things there? Cait still giving you trouble?"

Tyler groaned, "that girl needs to find out what duck tape is really for."

"Oh and what's that dear?" BJ asked trying not to laugh.

"For big mouths that don't know when to shut up." Tyler rubbed her temples. "You know super glue isn't just for fixing broken things either. It's to keep someone glued to their bed and out of my hair."

"Oh honey, I'm sorry you have to go put up with her. It is for the best though. With her testimony and the other evidence against them they should but them away for quite some time." BJ stated before she took a bite of her cheeseburger.

"True, but damn why does she have to be such a pain in the ass?" Tyler asked not really expecting an answer. "Mike and Leo said that they would stay here with her tonight to give me a break."

"Good, now tell me what else has been going on. How's Bandit?" BJ asked as she finished off her burger and ate her fries.

"Bandit is living the high life. He's been staying at Leo and Mike's since I've been staying at the center for the past week and a half." Tyler informed BJ. "I don't think he will want to come home after all the special treatment Leo has been giving him."

"What has that man done now?" BJ laughed.

Tyler giggled, "lets just say that Bandit is king there and he knows it. Mike said that he tried to crawl into bed the other night and Bandit was there. He wouldn't move for nothing. Finally Mike had to pick him up and dump him on the floor. The funniest part though, is that when he woke up Bandit was wedged in between the two of them laying on his back snoring away."

BJ laughed at the picture her mind formed. "Oh god, too funny."

"I guess Leo had his arm wrapped around Bandit. He was all snuggled up and everything." Tyler laughed harder. "Mike got pictures. I plan on putting them in the paper for his birthday."

"Ohh I can't wait to see those." BJ held on to her stomach as she continued to laugh.

Tyler let her feet slip to the floor as she laughed. A knock on her door calmed her down a bit, "come in."

Cait's head popped in, "I need to talk to you."

Tyler stopped laughing, "what did you do now?"

"I didn't do anything," Cait walked in and sat down in a chair. She grabbed the picture of Tyler and BJ off of Tyler's desk before she sat back. "Pretty."

Tyler turned her chair and talked softly, "Babe, I gotta go. I'll call you when I get home, if it's not to late."

"Okay, I love you," BJ replied.

"Love you too, bye," Tyler hung the phone up and turned back around to face Cait. "What can I do for you?"

"I want to go out," Cait replied casually.

Tyler looked at her, "what exactly do you mean by go out?"

"You know, go have fun." Cait put the picture back and stood up. "I'm tired of being locked up here. I can't do anything I want to do. I want to have fun."

"Sorry, not going to happen." Tyler shook her head and crossed her arms over her chest.

"Come on, why not?" Cait stomped her feet on the floor.

"Oh, let me see," Tyler scratched her cheek with her finger pretending to think. "First you started that fight with Brenda."

"Hey how was I supposed to know she'd get all out of shape if I took the cake she made." Cait waved her arms all over the place. "Damn it was just a cake."

"It was not just a cake. It was supposed to be a surprise birthday cake for one of the mother's here. She worked real hard on that cake and you ruined it." Tyler stood up and walked over to her. "You need to stop thinking about yourself and think about how other people feel."

"Shit, when they start thinking about my feelings I might start to think about theirs." Cait tossed back at Tyler. "So can I go out?"

"No, people are trying to kill you. Do you want them to find you?" Tyler asked as she grabbed Cait by the shoulders. "Maybe if you show more respect to others they will give it back. Treat people how you wish to be treated."

"Shit, that is so lame," Cait shrugged Tyler's hands off. "I guess I will go and see what else I can do." She walked around Tyler and headed to the door, but before she stepped out of the room she turned back around to face Tyler. "I have never been treated any other way than like a piece of useless nobody. Why should I set myself up? All any body has ever done is prove me right."

"Right about what?" Tyler asked as she stepped closer to Cait.

"That I'm nothing but a small piece in this big world. That I'm no good and will always be no good." Cait looked over at Tyler. "So why should I try to be something I'm not?"

"Everyone is a small piece in the world. It's up to you to see where you fit in to the puzzle. You shouldn't let people try to put you on the outside when in fact you belong in the middle." Tyler stated with a small smile. "Be who you are supposed to be in here," she pointed to her heart, "the rest should fall in place with some help from people who care about you."

"Do you care?" Cait asked softly.

"Yes," Tyler took a step, but stopped when Cait turned and left the room.
