"I know the feeling. Boys! Say goodbye to Nevada!" She yelled into the bedroom. Sean and Patrick came running out into the front room.
"Bye!" They crowed in unison.

Nevada smiled and waved at Rae before leaving and heading back to their apartment. She was eager to find out what Tristan had to say about meeting with Alex.

Tristan was already home by the time Nevada walked in the door. He was sitting at the kitchen table nursing a beer.

Nevada walked in and smiled at Tristan, her smile fading as she saw the look on his face, "Kids go play in your room," she ordered, happy her kids didn't object. "What is it?" Nevada asked, sitting next to Tristan at the table.

He decided to start with the good news. "I'm done with the fighting, Alex saw my hand today." He took another chug of beer.

Nevada grinned briefly, kissing him quickly, 'but there's something else isn't there....?'

"Yeah,"he sighed and let his hand slide gently down her arm. "He wants me to run the laced dragon..."

Nevada felt like her stomach flipped, 'and what did you say?'

"I said I needed to think about it, I got three days to give him an answer." He said before leaning back in the chair and raking his fingers through his hair.

'Thank you for telling me,' Nevada said honestly. 'I appreciate it.' she said, leading back in her chair. 'do you know what you're going to do?'

"Well I could walk away and then Alex decides to corner me in a dark alleyway with five goons and break my face or I could take the job and be around whores and opium all day. What do you think I should do?" He asked her, half sarcatically, half seriously.

Nevada gave Tristan a dirty look before resting her forehead against the table. 'can I trust you?' she asked weakly.

Tristan groaned loudly, he wanted to slam his face against the table hard, knock himself out, give himself a few hours of peace. "I dunno if I can trust myself..."

Nevada let out a sound that sounded a bit like a whimper. She wanted to hear yes you can trust me. Instead she heard something she didn't like. 'Oh,' she said sadly, getting up from the table and moving out go sit on the window ledge, resting her head on the window frame.

Tristan watched her get up and sit at the window. "I'm telling you about this because either decision is going to completely change our lives, Nevada. Not because I want to upset you. You know my vices, you always have. I'll be stuck in the middle of both of them every single day..." All he wanted was her to talk to him, help him make a choice, he needed some god damn help here.
