"Are you sure about this?" The man asked, his voice slightly slurry due to the amount of liquor he had partaken of.

He had dark hair that was cut off short, and the muscles of his chest and abdomen (exposed to her due to him being shirtless) were tightly toned and very pleasant to look at, his skin was tanned to bronze color, and his eyes we're swirling with excitement and anticipation. Or was the just the booze?

Truth be told, she didn't know what she was sure or unsure about. Here was this half naked man, with a gloriously sculpted body, whose finely toned arms were beginning to snake around her waist, his eyes smoldering down at her; and he was asking her to make a conscience choice? She had plenty of liquor in her system as well, that was adding to her inability to make a decision.

Maybe going out to the pub with the rest of the ARC team to celebrate their victorious find was a bad idea. Sure, while it lasted it was fun. Then she came to find Connor had taken her car to take Nick and Jenny hone, Connor being the designated driver tonight, leaving her with no ride. That's when he offered. They had been laughing together all night, making jokes at the others' expense. So it was of no great shock to her when he appeared next to her outside the pub. He said the his place wasn't far from the pub and she could wait there since it was about to start raining. Of course she agreed, her feet were killing her from running the way she had today. He was of no danger to her anyway, she could just call Connor to come retrieve her from there.

The short walk to his flat had been filled with drunk conversations of past missions, encounters with all sorts of people, and feeling towards other members of the team.

Abby, stumbled a few times, leaning into him for support. He helped her graciously and with a huge lop-sided smile.

"Did anyone ever tell you that you have extremely white teeth?" Abby asked, once they had entered his flat. "Oh wow. Everything is white." She observed.

"No, but did anyone ever tell you that you're cute when you pout? I bet that's why Connor makes you mad all the time, cause you make such a cute face when you pout." He laughed, as he shut the door behind them.

"Maybe." Abby to tried to conceal her blush.

She turned on her heels to face him, not realizing just how close he had been to her. Suddenly they were face to face, well almost except for the fact he towered over her.

All the heat was rushing back to her face. Her heart rate increased when he suddenly started to bend his head down towards her.

"Abby," He muttered, his lips floating slightly above hers.

She found it hard to fight off the urge to press up on her tip-toes and meet his lips. After all, they too looked very inviting and soft.

"Yeah?" She breathed, switching her focus from his lips to his eyes.

"I want to kiss you." His lips still floated tantalizingly above hers.

"Really?" Her hands found the tail of his shirt and gripped it tightly in both fists.

His lips brushed lightly over hers, sending chills and rockets of tingles shooting through her body, "Yeah. What should I do?"

Abby took a second to regain her breath, "You should do it."

Her head did a few quick nods, proving her point.

He needed no more encouragement, his lips crashed onto hers. Holding them greedily. Abby had no objections to it, she enjoyed the feeling that she was getting from this.

She got too carried away with the kiss, seeing as her hands had suddenly pulled open his shirt (popping off a few of its buttons in the process). He shrugged it off his shoulders, not bothering to really notice it was gone.

"Are you sure about this?"

Maybe if she was drunk and he was drunk in the morning it wouldn't matter, or they could swear into secrecy. No matter what happened, she liked this feeling to much to let it go. Add in the fact that she was too drunk to care, was being kissed by an incredibly good looking man, and had a crush on him-the favors are for yes.

"Yes," She pressed up on his tip-toes to press her lips to his, "Stephen."

One shot? Do I need to stick to other stuff? Just so you know, I have an interesting plot line...sort of...well I liked it anyway. LOL. Please tell me what you think so I'll know to write chapter 2! Thanks for reading!
