(A/n: hey guys. I noticed you have been wondering what happened after Hyde and Roseanne/ Jekyll and Christina got together? Well, this chapter takes place after chapter 5. Enjoy!)
"What a beautiful vision.." Jekyll whispered under his breath as he stared at the sleeping honey-blonde. It had been a month since Roseanne and Christina revealed that they both were in love with the men. When Hyde told him what happened in the alley, he had confronted the angel and she confirmed what the gray-eyed blonde said with a flustered face. A small groan could be heard from the opera singer as she stirred from her sleep, cobalt orbs being opened. "Hello, my sweet songstress~" he cooed at the tiny female as she snuggled into him.
"Morning, hen-hen~"
"Really? You're still calling me that?"
"Yes."
She had a cheeky smile as she sat up; the blankets falling to her thighs, revealing a baby pink shift with soft blue lace on the sleeves and hem. It was make out of cotton since it was growing quite warm outside. "Do you have practice today?" He asked her as she shook her head no. "The madame heard about what happened to me and she told Roseanne and I to rest as long as we needed to get what Spider attempted to do to us out." Jekyll and Hyde knew what they were talking about.
Ever since Lucy Harris's death, The owner of the red rat had tried to get the nightingale sisters as his new girls of the night with no results. Eleanor told them that when Spider was trying to force her fiancée, Juliana Anne Nightingale and Lavender Rose Crimson into becoming his girls when they went to pick them up from their show, she dealt with him. That night when Christina and Roseanne were walking, he also attempted to have the blondes when Hyde appeared, something that they were grateful for.
Luckily, he didn't try to go after Rayne because she was 15. That, and Nellie would have Scotland Yard on him. "She seems nice." He told the blonde as she smiled. "She is.. she was the one who made me, Lilian and Daphne into what we are now." She explained as she drew shapes with her finger into the skirt of her shift. A small knock at the front door interrupted the couples' thoughts. "I'll go see what it is." Jekyll said, quickly tying on a robe and exited the bedroom, leaving Christina alone.
The half-Swedish singer got out of bed and went to her private wardrobe when a knock at the door broke her out of her thoughts. Tying on her own robe, she went to the door and opened it. "Miss Holiday?" She asked, turning to the brunette who was Jekyll's lab assistant. Kate's eyes widened when the door opened revealing the opera star. "Wait.. are you and Dr Jekyll..?" Christina smiled and nodded, confirming her thoughts. "You're so bloody beautiful, ma'am." Kate then pressed a kiss to the blonde's hand as she smiled and looked away shyly, not used to the attention.
"T-thank you.. I'm sorry you had to see me like this."
"It's fine. Besides, it's actually the first time I'm seeing you up close and personal."
The two were talking until Kate left to go to the lab as the blonde closed the door behind her. Making her way to the closet, she pulled out a pale yellow dress with flute sleeves and a single lavender gemstone in a filigree setting on the chest over her smooth skin. Lacing up the back, she walked out the bedroom and found the man she fell in love with. "Jekyll, honey.. what's going on- Oh, Inspector Newcomen!" She said, her voice taking on a soft tone.
The inspector was shocked to say the least as the half-Swedish woman played with her golden earring that had a heart-shaped light blue gemstones with tiny diamonds as accents. "Can me and Henry help you with something, sir?" She asked, her cobalt blues flickering to the diamond grays of Roseanne quickly as Jekyll and Hyde got the message from their songbirds.
'Don't do anything stupid, boys. Me and Rosy got this.'
"We are investigating about a robbery that happened in Coney Hall. Do you know anything about that?"
"Nej. I was taking a walk around 10 pm last night. You can confirm it with Roseanne, my assistant if you would like. If you do not mind me asking, what was stolen?"
"A pocket-watch shaped as a firefly with a citrine as the body."
They kept on talking as Christina was calm.. once the inspector left, Jekyll turned to face the beautiful singer. "How.. did you both manage to get Newcomen off the property?" he asked the blonde as she smiled. "We're used to this, pumpkin. This is nothing." She crooned at him, kissing his cheek before heading back inside. His face was red before going after the blue-eyed beauty as he located her and nuzzled into the crook of her neck. "My songbird.." she blushed and turned towards the scientist, left eye gray while his own left eye was red.
"Songbird~"
"Charmer..~"
Kate was staring at the two in disbelief as she was watching the scene unfold before her eyes.. she couldn't believe it! Although, she could understand why the doctor fell in love with the opera star. She was very sweet and kind towards him.. "Boys!" A squeal of delight escaped the woman's lips as she was picked up and held bridal style. Christina was caressing his cheek as he walked to their shared bedroom and she could hear soft yet sweet lusty singing from the closed door.
She felt her face growing hot as the noises grew in volume slightly before ending. "I think I am now traumatized from those noises.." Kate whispered under her breath as she walked away from the corridor, her heart racing while she knew one thing for certain.
Things weren't going to get boring since Christina was around.
