I was sleeping with a loaded gun I was scared of all things I'd done Yeah, I know I'm not the only one It's alright, it's alright, it's alright,
The calendar said it had only been four months since things had changed so drastically, four months. That was still hard to believe. Bishop sometimes wondered if the change in leadership had been the catalyst for all the events that had came after, but he tried not to venture down that path too far. What had happened had happened and they couldn’t rewind time, what they could do was look forward and focus on what was ahead of them.
That didn’t mean he didn’t think about the past, or more accurately how he was moving on from it. Not that life had given him much time to think about things like that. But now with the rogues taken care of and a real active peace having fallen over the Greenbelt again, it was almost as if they could all take a deep breath.
Which was exactly what Bishop was doing that morning.
One of the trucks they had been using for construction had been running rough. Nothing serious enough to ask one of the mechanics to fix it, though, which was why Bishop was currently bent under the hood of the pickup, tools in hand tinkering away with it. Truthfully it was relaxing to feel as if he had enough free time in his own schedule to do something like this, even if that free time also meant he had more time to think, and more time to think meant he had to face just exactly how he was adjusting to the events of the last four, or even five months.
Bishop wasn’t tinkering away on the pickup alone though. No, he had taken the opportunity to ask Vic to help him out. He couldn’t remember the last time either one other had done something so normal and entirely not related to the patches they now wore on their cuts. In truth he thought maybe they could both use the break, and maybe the chance to talk.
“So what did you think of last night?” Bishop asked Vic as he ducked out from underneath the hood of the pick up, reaching for another tool as he caught his friend’s eye. Bishop had other things on his mind, but the speed dating event seemed less daunting to talk about than the other questions he had for the man who had really become his best friend. He wasn’t avoiding them so much as he was starting small, building up to the things that were really weighing on his mind lately.
