<<I'm posting but Nick was involved in this post so.. enjoy! :)>>
 
She then moved her eyes back to his and kissed him one more time before whispering "Thanks, Mister Boyle."
 
Julia was pretty sure he would know she meant about tracking her down after finding out about the sephlicurs, even if she did feel like she should be braver about the whole thing.
 
"Come on, Ms Walker going to be Boyle," Nick grinned crookedly and looked back at Patrick and motioned his head for him to follow as they finished going upstairs.  He squeezed Julia's hand when they reached the Control Room.
 
Julia returned the embrace and looked straight ahead, the laser moving over their eyes and identifying each of them before lifting the field around the wall and allowing them entrance.
 
When they entered Derek looked up from having been looking at the keys.  He had heard Nick coming in and figured it had to do with the Sephlicurs and so didn't go out to interrupt them.  He looked at each of them, wondering what their true reactions were.
 
Julia swallowed and met his gaze, even as Nick moved her over to a med table and had her sit down, getting antiseptic and bandages for her head.
 
"So...." she broached the subject "We're going to get rid of them.  Any... any idea how?"
 
Derek let out a breath of air he wasn't aware he had been holding and nodded once "We hide them as the Druids did."
 
He looked at both her and Nick, hoping they both knew that he hadn't brought the sephlicurs out to hurt them in anyway, but to make it easier for them all to move on.
 
Julia smiled softly, crookedly, before turning to Nick and her smile growing softer as he tended to her.  She did understand.
 
"Don't forget to kiss it to make it better." she winked at him.
