This vacation was one of the best vacation of my life. No work, no worries, no anxiety for planning. Just beach, food, and sex. We should do it more often.
Aaron insisted he'd pick me up the next morning for work and I didn't argue much. As soon as we get out of the car, we are back to work. No holding hands, kissing or smiling all the time.
"Wow, you two look too tan for being out with food poisoning for the last 5 days..." Rossi comments as soon as he meets us in the elevator.
Aaron smiles and shakes his head "Reunion honeymoon?" Rossi suggests
"Something like that" I answer
"Had fun? Of course you had..." he answers himself
"Stop" Aaron chuckles. He leans to me "I'll see you later. Have a good day" he says and kisses my cheek
"You too" I reply as they get out of the elevator.
His POV "You don't have to be shy in front of me, Aaron. I'm sure you had a lovely vacation" Dave says as we walk to the bullpen
"I'm not being shy. I'm just trying to avoid this conversation" I admit
"Why? Did something go wrong?" he asks
"Not at all. Everything was great"
"Seeing you with this smile, I bet it was more than great" he says and I shake my head, smiling.
"Let's stop talking about my personal life, we have a case" I remind him
"Ok. But when you ask me to officiate your wedding one day, I'll remind you how you pushed me away" he jokes and goes to the conference room.
Her POV When I finished up in the afternoon, I headed to his office to find him. "I'm ready to go when you are" I announce as I enter.
He looks at his watch and gets up "Yeah, let's go" he says as he starts gathering his things
"It's ok, you don't have to hurry" I chuckle
"We have an appointment and I didn't realize how fast time passed"
"What appointment?" I ask
"I want to show you something. Come on" he takes my hand and we leave
"Is that why you insisted to bring to work this morning? So I wouldn't have a way out?" I wonder as we get in the elevator
"Possibly" he answers and kisses me.
We get in the car and he drives towards the opposite direction of our places. I try to guess where we might be headed to but with every turn he takes or doesn't take, my mind changes.
At some point, he stops at a red light and puts his hand on my thigh. "I can almost hear your mind trying to make a guess" he laughs
"We've been driving for 15 minutes now, of course I'm going to try and guess" I admit and he chuckles.
