Will pushes Mac against the wall. Hot lips touch and his mind grows fuzzy. He's been sitting at the anchor desk for the last hour thinking of her. Her touch, her smell, her taste, he wants it all. Will runs his hand through her hair and pushes himself against her. He moves his way down her neck and directs his attention to her collarbone. Mackenzie mewls from his affections, digging her nails into his shoulders. The lights of the studio are dimmed and almost everyone has gone home. "Will?' Mackenzie whispers.
"Mhmm?" he doesn't stop. He kisses, licks, and nibbles the pale skin until it turns a flushed pink.
"Will, we can't keep…" a sudden moan escapes her red lips when Will runs his hand over her breast and down to her ass, giving her a light squeeze. "What if someone sees us?" As if on cue, high heels click against the cold floor and a tall figure opens the glass door.
Mackenzie's eyes grow wide as a look of panic and confusion crosses her face. "Sloan!" she shrieks.
"Oh my...Sorry! I'll just, you know, let you finish." Sloan scurries out of the studio and quickly shuts the door. A wicked grin lights up her face as she excitedly whispers, "I knew it!" She fist pumps the air and walks back to her office.
"Sloan!" Mackenzie, flustered, walks into Ms. Sabbith's office. The city lights twinkle through the windows. Sloan stands at her desk flipping through binders of economic reports. "Sloan, you have to promise me you won't tell anyone."
"What would I…" she pauses and thinks mid page flip. "Oh, you and Will?"
"Shhh!" Mackenzie reaches out to shush Sloan. "Don't say that so loudly. We don't want people to know yet."
"So you're sneaking around?" her response is nonchalant but she's mentally jumping around the room. The cutest couple of the newsroom is finally a couple.
"Well, I guess." Mackenzie pushes her hand into her pocket and pulls out a large diamond ring, the ring. The light catches the diamond, causing it to sparkle. Sloan's eyes grow wide as she recognizes what it means.
"No way! Mackenzie, he didn't! That rock is huge."
Mackenzie blushes and shoves the 'rock' back in her pocket. Worry wears on her face, tinged with success and joy. She lost him once, it won't happen again. She won't let it. She knows it's important she and Will learn how to balance their relationship. "He did. And you can't tell anyone!"
Sloan grins from ear to ear before wrapping Mackenzie in a hug. "I won't!"
A/N: This idea came from two prompts by lilacmermaid (best prompts ever) and I'm all about giving credit where it's due. "What if someone had caught them kissing before they had the chance to make the announcement?" and "What if Mac had persuaded Will to wait a little while before making the announcement?" I kind of turned these around to form, "Always Getting Caught". Thank you for reading, please don't forget to leave comments and reviews.
