VICTORIA MOVES AROUND HER KITCHEN, finishing making the lunch for Rosie to take to school. A sigh leaves her lips as she looks at the clock. Rosie hadn't even appeared yet and it was five minutes from when they always left. She glances toward her sisters door, wondering why she hadn't come out yet. Putting the meat back in the fridge, Victoria moves over to the door, knocking on it before pushing it open.

Rosie was still laying in bed scrolling through her phone. Victoria raises her eyebrows as she lifts her arms. "Why aren't you up?" She asks with a slight groan. She hated being late for work. Bobby was lenient with her because he knew she had Rosie but still, it didn't make her feel the greatest when she came on later than she was supposed to.

Her sister just glances over at her, a look of confusion on her face. "You know we have today off, right?" Rosie responds. Victoria furrows her eyebrows, thinking to herself for a moment. That's when it hit her that the school was in fact closed and Rosie had told her earlier that week that it was happening.

"Right, uh, it slipped my mind." Victoria admits, glancing around momentarily. Now she was stuck on what to do. "Are you staying here or coming to the station?" She asks curiously. Sometimes on days off Rosie just comes with her to the station, that way Victoria could keep an eye on her and so she wasn't sitting around the apartment all day.

"Are you and Buck still arguing constantly?" Rosie asks reluctantly. She loved coming to the station before Buck and Victoria hit a rough patch. Now it was like a never ending screaming match between them.

"We don't argue." Victoria denies as she looks at her sister who just stares back at her, not believing her for a second. "Not constantly." She corrects herself, groaning. It wasnt Victoria's fault that Buck decided to all of a sudden have a problem with her. "I try and ignore him except on calls but he's so freaking annoying and doesn't realize when i said don't talk to me, i meant don't talk to me." Victoria explains as she crosses her arms against her chest.

She literally just wanted to pretend that Buck didn't exist but he wasn't exactly making it easy on her. Eddie tried to intervene a few times but most of the time they ended up shouting over him. Victoria didn't want to hate Buck, she really didnt. But right now he was making it pretty hard to do anything other than that.

"I think I'll pass." Rosie mumbles as she looks back at her phone. Victoria rolls her eyes a bit. She thinks Rosie was being a bit overdramatic. Her and Buck didn't argue a lot. They maybe had one argument a shift but that was mainly instigated by him. He really couldn't mind his own damn business.

"Fine. I'll lock up." Victoria tells her, bringing her hand to her head. Rosie smirks as she glances back over at her sister.

"Have fun." She says in a teasing voice. Victoria sends her a playful glare as she narrows her eyes at the girl.

"Mm. Love you." Victoria responds as she turns around.

"Love you too. Stay safe." Rosie calls out after her as Victoria shuts the bedroom door. She takes a deep breath as she runs her hands through her hair before grabbing her bag off of the chair.

Glancing back at the clock, she makes her way to the front door. Honestly she didn't know how much longer she could work with Buck. It seemed every single thing he said got on her nerves and he was still being a nuisance on calls as well. Of course no one else saw that and just saw him doing his job. Except he practically always did things before her which annoyed her.

Victoria just rubs her face, opening the door and preparing herself to face yet another day at the 118.

••••

HEN PLACES THE MEDICINE BOTTLES IN THE SECURE CONTAINER, her eyes flickering over to Victoria every few seconds. The woman was helping her restock the ambulance and Hen thought it was the perfect time to finally get her question in. No matter how much she tried, it seemed Victoria was avoiding being alone with her ever since Buck and her started fighting.

And damn was it annoying. Well, she could live with Victoria avoiding her for a few weeks. What she couldn't stand was the constant bickering between Buck and Victoria. It was getting to the point where she wanted to slam her head into the wall. The only time their bickering was at a minimum was when they were on calls. And that's only because they would both be disciplined by Bobby if they took it too far when they were supposed to be saving lives.

"So, you never told me about how you and Eddie actually hooked up." Hen speaks up, sitting back a little. Victoria finishes putting the padding away before she meets the womans gaze, a small groan leaving her body.

"Oh, come on Hen. That was weeks ago." She points out. Not getting why she was bringing this up now.

"I know and I still cant believe you haven't spilled the beans yet." Hen states as she crosses her arms. Victoria brings her hands up to her face.

"God, everyone found out about us." She complains. Victoria hadn't even realized she and Buck were being that loud. And It was even more embarrassing when Bobby pulled her and Eddie aside and asked if they were able to keep it professional. To say she wanted to curl up into a hole and die.... that couldn't even cover it.

"Well, yeah. You and Buck were literally screaming at each other." Hen points out with an amused expression. She had been in the kitchen with Chimney and Bobby when it happened. To say she was shocked would be an understatement. "But when don't you do that now." She mutters to herself with a little bit of a sigh but Victoria didn't hear that part.

"It was when we went out as a team." Victoria admits. Hen tilts her head as she thinks back to a few weeks ago.

"When we went out?" She asks curiously. "Wait, after the fiance who died?" Hen tries to piece it together while Victoria just nods her head.

"Mhm." She hums before clenching her jaw a bit. "After you all ditched us--" Victoria accuses and Hen points her finger toward her.

"We did not ditch you." Hen denies which makes Victoria roll her eyes.

"Ditched. Eddie and I had a few more drinks, danced together-- lets just say that wasn't exactly pg either." Victoria states with a slight blush and Hen raises an eyebrow at her. The way Eddie had gripped her hips as they danced, turning her against him, his breath hitting her neck as the movements were drunken yet sensual, yeah it made them get a few looks from other people. "And he took me home in a cab, walked me up to my apartment and I invited him in. It's really nothing spectacular." She finishes as she shrugs her shoulders a little bit.

"But was he spectacular?" Hen asks, wiggling her eyebrows. Victoria laughs as she smirks to herself, her eyes drifting to her lap as she licks her lips.

"Let's just say the first thing he wanted to do was go down on me." Victoria states, her cheeks slightly tinted red as she presses her lips together tightly. Hen was surprised at that and that only made her more intrigued.

"Really?" Hen asks her and Victoria nods. She glances around, making sure Chimney wasnt lurking about before gesturing to her lap. "So, he's packing in that department." Victoria nudges her a bit while Hen just smirks.

"Oh, yeah." She couldnt help but boast about Eddie. Especially to Hen who literally knew everything about her sex life. Her and Athena were who she gossiped with about the good the bad and the ugly. And let's just say Eddie was in his own category. "It was probably in my top three of men experiences." Victoria admits with a content sigh.

"Pretty high." Hen says with a smirk, her eyes drifting up to the balcony where Eddie was standing, leant against the rail as he talked to Buck. "But you never went there again?" She asks curiously. She wouldn't blame Victoria if she did.

"Nah, it was just a one night stand. We both agreed to just let it be that." Victoria says as she shrugs her shoulders. She couldn't see Eddie as a casual guy honestly so she would never push that onto him. She was fine with it being one steamy night. And if another steamy night happened between them once in a blue moon, she wouldn't exactly complain. God knows she needed to let off the steam.

Meanwhile as Eddie stood up in the kitchen with Buck, luckily being the only ones up there, he lets out a sigh as he crosses his arms against his chest. "I don't get why you don't just apologize to her." He admits as he stares at Buck who he had been trying to get to talk about this Victoria issue but wasn't budging. Eddie couldnt completely comprehend why Buck was even mad in the first place.

"Why would I have to apologize? She screamed at me and almost slammed my locker door onto my hand." Buck retorts with a scoff. Why was he the bad guy in this situation? Everything was fine before she made a whole big scene.

"Okay, but you provoked her." Eddie points out the obvious. Victoria wouldn't have came for him if he didn't do anything wrong.

"No, I didn't."

"You stole her position, Buck." Eddie points out. He had seen it happen firsthand. And even though Bobby agreed to it, it still didn't change the fact that Buck had practically pointed out that he thought he could do the job better.

"That wasn't about her." Buck denies and Eddie scoffs, not believing it for one second.

"Really?" He asks as he raises an eyebrow. Eddie glances around momentarily. "Well, you did practically tell the whole house we had sex." Eddie states. He didn't have the biggest issue with people knowing, but it was the fact that it was Buck who made everyone find out and he was practically judging Victoria for it.

"That was on her. She screamed it at me." He retorts. Buck had only made an assumption, it wasn't his fault that she had confirmed it.

"Because you pushed her."

"Why are you on her side?" Buck complains with a frown. He thought Eddie of all people would be on his side, especially since he was the one he had been talking to since this whole Vicroria fight started.

"I'm not on anyone's side." Eddie denies with a sigh. Honestly, he was just trying to do what he could to stop the arguing. "Seriously, dude, is that what this is really about? Because it was just stupid drunken sex, nothing more." He says. He admitted his guilt to Buck, he even apologized to the man after he and Victoria had fought because he was a good guy who made a move on the girl he liked.

Well, technically she made the move but that wasn't the point right now. Eddie was trying to help Buck with his obvious liking for Victoria but he was just blowing the whole thing up. "I don't care that you slept with her." Buck grumbled as he tilts his head back.

"That's not what your face is telling me." Eddie responds. He wouldn't have a problem with Buck being mad, if he was mad at both of them. The fact that it was just Victoria was what angered him. And he didn't think Buck could even be pissed that they slept together. They were both single.

"It's just-- its hypocritical that's all." Buck says as he shrugs his shoulders.

"What is?" Eddie asks, a bit confused on what he was talking about now.

"She went off on me for not being professional and yet she slept with you. She literally said she didn't date firefighters and yet she slept with you." Buck states, crossing his arms as he bites the inside of his cheek.

"Sleeping together and dating are not the same thing." Eddie denies. Buck just rolls his eyes as he glances away from him.

"Whatever."

Eddie sighs as he puts his hand on Bucks shoulder. "Just apologize. Be the bigger man." He suggests. It would help them all. And plus, Eddie knew Bobby was gonna snap at them eventually.

"No chance in hell." Buck denies with a scoff. Eddie brings his fingers up to the crease in his eyebrow.

"Can you at least stop with the arguing?"

"She starts it!" Buck complains with a frown. Why was he the one be accused when Victoria was the one who instigated most of the fights.

"Mhm." Eddie mumbles as he just shakes his head, walking out of the room. He had really given up now in trying to intervene. Mostly because trying to get through to Buck and Victoria was like trying to get through a brick wall with nothing but a spoon.

It was impossible.

••••

THE GROUP STARE AT THE STRUCTURE FIRE IN FRONT OF THEM, seeing that it was already in the structure so they didn't have much time. Bobby sighs as he looks at it before turning to his team, catching their attention. "Hen and Chimney, set up triage. Eddie, Buck, Vic, search and rescue." Bobby tells them. Victoria wanted to roll her eyes but held it back. She swore Bobby kept pairing her with Buck just for the sake of it.

"Copy that." They say as they nod their heads. Victoria turns to the building, kneeling down to finish putting her gear on. Eddie and Buck were beside her doing the same thing.

"We should start from the upper floors, it'll be more efficient that way." Buck states as he starts to put his mask on. Victoria shakes her head as she glances toward him.

"It's better to just start from the bottom." Victoria denies. They stand up as Buck just stares at her.

"But if we--"

"This fire is already getting past our control we cant waste minutes running up the stairs just to come back down them." Victoria snaps at him with a groan as she makes her way toward the building.

"Why do you always turn down my ideas?" Buck retorts angrily and she just looks at him.

"Uh, they're dumb ideas." She responds. Eddie just tilts his head back, just wanting to do their job. "And you've got what? A year on the job? Year and half? I've been doing it for ten. So, yeah, sorry if I go with what I say as opposed to a newbie." Victoria tells him as she makes her way into the apartment complex.

Buck and Eddie follow her inside as they start banging and kicking in doors. "Fire department! Is anyone in here!" Victoria shouts as she looks inside. She glances around the hallway before looking at the pair. "You guys finish this floor, I'm going to the next." She tells them but Buck shakes his head.

"Hey, we shouldn't split up." Buck responds.

"We don't need three guys searching one floor." She denies. She could easily be searching the next floor so that they could do this faster.

"No, I'm with Buck. You can't go alone." Eddie denies. Victoria scoffs as she really didnt care about their opinions right now.

"Are we going to stand here arguing or we gonna actually help someone?" Victoria asks them and both of them stay silent. "This is Vic, going up to the second floor." She says into her radio as she stares at them before making her way up the stairs. "Fire department, call out!" She shouts as she starts pounding and kicking in the doors to search for victims.

As she continues to make her way up the apartment building, she kicks in another door, stepping inside. "Fire department! Anyone in here?" She shouts, glancing around. Victoria turns toward the stairs after not getting a response. "This is Vic, moving up to the last floor." Victoria tells them.

"Negative. All fire personnel exit the building, the smoke is turning black." Bobby's voice comes through the radio and she just sighs as she still makes her way up the stairs, glancing toward the first door and kicking it in before turning back.

"Cap, just give me two minutes." Victoria responds with a sigh. She only had a few more rooms to check.

"Evacuate now. That is an order." Bobby responds. Victoria bites her cheek but turns back toward the staircase. Just as she goes to walk over, she hears a voice behind her.

"Help!" Her head snaps back, her eyes widening as she glances around, trying to see where it came from.

"I hear a victim, Cap." Victoria says into her radio, starting to make her way back down the hallway.

"The buildings gonna go, get out now." Bobby demands but she doesn't respond, only keeping her eyes peeled for the victim.

"Where are you!?" Victoria shouts out, keeping low and trying to hear any possible noise that she could.

"Over here!" As she gets closer to the end of the hall, she saw a little girl on the floor behind one of the plants that had been next to the wall.

"Hey." Victoria says as she bends down in front of her. "Hey, it's okay." She assures her as she wanted to at least calm her down so she wasn't breathing in so much of the smoke. "Is there anyone else up here?" She asks, glancing around the hallway. The little girl shakes her head.

"My mom is the only one renting on this floor." She answers and Victoria was honestly grateful for that.

"And she's not here?" Victoria questions.

"She went to the store." The little girl tells her. Victoria hears the fire spreading as the roof creaks above her.

"Okay, I'm gonna need you to hold onto my tightly and do not lift your head for any reason." Victoria says as she stares at the girl.

"Okay." She says as she nods her head. Victoria picks her up and she does exactly what she said as Victoria makes her way toward the stairs.

Outside, Bobby watches as Eddie and Buck exit the building. But he was confused when Victoria didn't come out after them. He moves over to them, Chimney and Hen behind him. "Where's Vic?" He asks, wondering why she wasn't with them.

Eddie furrows his eyebrows as he stares back at Bobby. "She's not out here?" He asks, glancing around the area.

"I thought she was with you." Bobby retorts. He had specifically assigned them together for search and rescue. Buck sighs as he takes off his helmet.

"She said we should split up." Buck tells him. Bobby's eyes widen as he looks back at them in shock.

"What?" Why the hell would she wander off alone in an out of control fire? Bobby turns to the building, grabbing a hold of his radio. "Vic, I need your location now." He demands but all he got was static. Hen frowns as she sends a worried glance to Chimney. "Vic." Bobby tries again, his stomach twisting at the thought of Victoria being trapped inside when this place goes up.

"We can go in and get her." Eddie suggests as he looks at the captain. Bobby clenches his jaw as he looks back at the building. They really at no time at all but with no response from Victoria, it was a hard decision to make.

He lets out a sigh as he looks back toward Eddie and Buck. "One minute." He tells them and they nod their heads. They kneel down to start putting on their masks again when they see a figure coming out of the building just as it blows up.

Everyone covers themselves as Victoria moves to the ground to protect the little girl from the blow. Once it had calmed down, she lets the girl go so that she could breathe in the fresh air. "Evie?" They hear in the distance and as Victoria gets her mask off, she sees a woman running over to them. "Evie!" She screams as she instantly grabs onto the little girl, holding her tightly.

"Mom!" The girl hugs her back, a smile on her face. Victoria coughs as she looks back at the building before she felt someone tugging her hand. Her eyes move to the mother who looked beyond grateful, tears in her eyes.

"Thank you so much." She says and Victoria just smiles at her. A paramedic walks over and begins walking them over to the ambulance. Victoria sighs as she rubs her face, beginning to make her way over to the truck but she felt someone stop her.

She was confused until she saw it was Bobby and he did not look happy in the slightest. "That little stunt you just pulled, that is how you get yourself and anyone who was willing to go in after you killed! Do you understand me?" Bobby asks, his voice showing nothing more than anger as he glares at the woman. The others just watch them closely.

"Yeah." She mumbles, going to move past him but Bobby stops her. Victoria furrows her eyebrows but when she looks at Bobby, she knew he wasn't finished.

"When I say get out, I mean it. It's not a suggestion, it is an order." Bobby tells her. She couldn't help but roll her eyes. Victoria wasn't going to abandon a victim that she could hear.

"So, I was supposed to leave the little girl to die?"

"When I say to evacuate it does not mean two minutes, it doesn't mean thirty seconds, it means now." Bobby knew that they'd want to save everyone, but sometimes that just wasn't the case. Especially when it would jeopardize their lives as well. She was lucky she even made it out of the building.

"I said i got it." Victoria snaps, not meaning to but the heat of the moment got to her.

"Whatever kamikaze mission you think you're on, it will not happen on my watch. When you are under my supervision you will listen to every order, you will do what I say, when I say. It is not a negotiation." Bobby explains to her and Victoria just keeps her eyes trained to the ground. "You're partnered with Chimney until you prove otherwise." He tells her, going to turn around but her shock and confusion catch his attention.

"I don't need a babysitter." Victoria denies with a scoff as she looks toward Chimney momentarily. Bobby turns back to her, his expression not shifting from the one of pure disappointment and anger.

"This attitude right here shows me that you do." Bobby retorts and that makes Victoria go silent. He looks over toward Buck before shaking his head. "I don't know what the hell is going on here but it will stop, do you understand me? You are to not bring your petty bickering into my firehouse. Because this is not an office job, it isn't not high school, we have peoples lives on the line." His voice was very firm and his eyes showed that he really wasn't going to take any more of their bullshit.

"Bobby it's not--" Buck starts to say, not seeing how he got roped into Victoria's dumb decision.

"No, this is where you both zip it!" Bobby shouts, pointing his finger at them. Everyone was in shock as they just stared back at him. "I am sick and tired of the attitude. From the both of you." He states, flickering his eyes between Buck and Victoria. Buck had his eyes trained on the ground, pulling at his fingers as he clenched his jaw to keep the tears from forming in his eyes. "If i hear so much as one word from either of you about something that isn't related to our job, I will not hesitate to remove you from this house." Hen shares a glance with Chimney and Eddie, none of them daring to say a word. "Am I understood?" He asks them.

Buck clears his throat, barely bringing his eyes up to Bobby as he nods his head.
"Yes, Captain." His voice was small, cracking as he just brings his gaze back to the ground. Bobby moves his eyes to Victoria who was just staring at him.

"Am I understood?" He says again, a little more sternly. Victoria bites her tongue but nods her head.

"Yes."

"When we get back to the house go home." Bobby tells her and her eyes widen but she doesnt respond. "You're done for the day." He states before moving past the group. Everyone stood in silence for a few seconds, most of them just looking at the two who were on the other end of the yelling.

Hen makes her way over to Victoria though, seeing she was angry and upset. But she did see why Bobby went off on her. She needed to be comforted now though so she raises her hand to Victoria's shoulder. "Vic--" Hen goes to say but Victoria scoffs, cutting her off.

"Don't, Hen." She mutters as she pushes the womans hand away, just storming off toward the truck. Everyone else was left to just bask in what had happened, no one really knowing what to say, especially since they had never seen Bobby get so angry like that.

••••

VICTORIA LETS OUT A SIGH AS SHE PUTS HER BAG ONTO HER SHOULDER. Here she was going on while everyone else got to stay on shift. She didn't get why Buck got to stay and she didn't. Victoria closes her locker and unfortunately for her, Buck was coming from the showers, a towel around his waist. His eyes meet hers momentarily but he just turns toward his locker. Victoria brushes her hair behind her ear as she just leans down to put her shoes on.

"What you did was really stupid." Bucks voice echos through the hair as he opens his locker. Victoria scoffs as she just doesn't even glance toward him.

"I don't need a lecture from you, probie. Seriously, you've done dumber shit than me." Victoria retorts. She seriously didn't need him making things any worse. He seriously couldn't just listen to her and just not talk to her.

"Has Cap ever yelled at me like that before? No. He only did it because of you." Buck states.

"Acting like you're not the majority of the problem." She mumbles, turning to finally head to the door.

"You're the one who got us both in trouble." Buck points out as he shakes his head, grabbing his deodorant from his locker and applying it. Victoria raises her eyebrows as she presses her tongue to the inside of her cheek.

"Oh really? Cause I seem to recall you were the one who started the whole fight to begin with." Victoria retorts as she walks over to him. Buck rolls his eyes as he meets her gaze.

"No i--" He goes to say but Hen cuts him off. Neither of them having even realized they had an audience now.

"Both of you are as bad as each other." She tells them in a sharp tone. Victoria just glares at Buck before her eyes move to Hen. "Bobby's right, you need to leave whatever it is outside the station." Hen states, shaking her head. "Seriously, it's getting irritating." She mutters, Chimney and Eddie silently agreeing with her.

Victoria just rolls her eyes as she scoffs and makes her way out of the locker room. Buck slams his locker shut, turning and walking back toward the bathroom. Hen holds her hands out, her lips parted as she just sighs. "How did I become the bad guy?" She asks as she looks toward Chimney and Eddie.

"You really don't know what it's about?" Chimney asks as he sits on the bench. Hen groans as she opens her locker.

"She won't say anything. At least not that would explain this behaviour." Hen couldn't see how their slight feud turned into this. She really couldn't see what the common denominator was. She even thought they may be seeing each other but they would definitely not be like this if they were.

"What about you? I mean they were arguing about the fact you two slept together." Chimney points out as his eyes move to Eddie.

"Yeah but I don't think that's really what this about." Eddie denies as he crosses his arms against his chest. "Buck would be mad at both of us if that was the case and I don't know, there's something more." He did have a slight inkling to what it was about, but he wasn't just going to out Bucks crush on Victoria.

"Well, I hope they get it under control cause I don't think Bobby was bluffing about removing one of them." Hen says, closing her locker and heading back our of the room.

Victoria was now at how curled up on her couch as she explained the whole situation to Kelly and Shay on FaceTime. They were barely keeping up with it all with how fast she was complaining to them. "And somehow I get blamed for this whole mess. Seriously, it's so fucking annoying." She mutters with a scoff as she shakes her head.

"He's got a point though." Kelly admits and Victoria furrows her eyebrows. "Vic, you endangered your life and your teams. Bobby was right to tell you off." He says. He would've done the same thing if she was still here in Chicago and pulled that stunt.

"Okay, he didn't have to bring Buck into it though." Victoria retorts. She could handle getting told off in front of everyone but it was the fact he brought her arguments with Buck into it was what was frustrating her.

"From what we've heard, you two have been at each other's throat the past threw weeks." Shay adds as she raises an eyebrow. It wasn't like it was unprecedented. Bobby was probably sick of hearing them.

"How did you hear that?" Victoria asks with a confused look on her throat because although she had kept them up to date, she hadnt gone into that much detail.

"Uh..." Shay trails off, sharing a glance with Kelly who just sighs and rolls his eyes a bit.

"She has Hens number." Kelly states. Victoria was shocked, her jaw dropping for a moment.

"And I thought you were on my side." Victoria complains.

"We are. But we also know that there's more going on and you can't bring that shit to work." Kelly answers her. Victoria laughs loudly as she couldn't believe Kelly of all people was saying that to her.

"Really? You're the one saying that when you been in how many pissing contests with Casey?" She asks him, tilting her head. The amount of times truck and squad have been at each other's throats because of Casey and Severide having a feud, she couldn't even count it on her hand now.

"That's different." Kelly denies.

"Not really, no."

"Okay, so you admit that there's something wrong." Kelly says if she was saying that this compared to when he and Casey got mad at each other.

Victoria takes a breath as she just runs a hand through her hair, honestly just exhausted. "Buck was the one who decided to start ignoring me and then acting like everything was normal, and then arguing with me. I didn't do anything." Victoria explains to them with a groan.

"Have you, I don't know, tried talking to him like a civilized human being?" Shay asks as she raises an eyebrow. It seems all they did was shout and not try and get to the root of the problem.

"Bucks not civil." Victoria mumbles and Shay just shakes her head.

"See this is exactly why you're fighting every single shift." She points out.

"If you're just gonna keep saying this I'm hanging up." Victoria tells them with a groan as she tilts her head back.

"Fine, fine." Shay says, holding her hands up in defense. "How's the little one?" She asks curiously. Before Victoria could answer, another voice speaks up.

"I'm not little shay, I'm Fourteen." Rosie complains. Victoria turns her head, now seeing Rosie standing by the door of her room.

"Sorry, doll." Shay responds, a small laugh leaving her lips.

"Have you been listening the entire time?" Victoria asks her bluntly and Rosie just smirks toward her.

"Yep." She responds and Victoria just shakes her head. "I told you, you and Buck were still arguing." Rosie points out.

"Whatever." She mumbles as she rolls her eyes and looks back at the screen. "Tell me about you guys cause I'm seriously over my screwed up life right now." Victoria admits as she rests her head against her hand.

She didn't understand how her life got this point honestly. Like did the universe have some grudge against her or something because she didn't feel like she's done anything to deserve any of this. But then again, the world was a mysterious and messed up place and the universe surely knew how to show her that.

Authors note;

A lot of angst this chapter ! Do you think Bobby was right in what he said? And why do you think that this arguing is truly going on?
