Bobby sighed in content as Alex kissed the spot behind his ear. She laid on her side rubbing his chest.
She whispered "that was amazing."
Bobby pulled her closer and said "yes you were."
She blushed and buried her face in his neck.
He grinned even after all these months he could still embarrass her.
He knew she like to act like a bad ass but there was so much more to her than meets the eyes. He found out that she loved to cuddle which thrilled him because he did too.
He also learned that her marriage to Joe was awful. She had told him that Joe constantly cheated on her. Once he got so drunk that he hit her and even tried raped her. That was when she decided she had enough; the night he was killed she told him she wanted a divorce. She felt so guilty ever since.
He rubbed her back and let his hand slip over her butt and back up.
She said "Bobby? Talk to me I don't when your this quiet."
He kissed her head "Nothing is wrong. I'm just thinking about us."
She tensed and looked at him.
He smiled "Alex relax."
She sighed "I'm sorry."
He squeezed her butt "you don't need to apologize."
She nodded and asked again "Really Bobby what are you thinking about?"
He said "how lucky I am to have you and what an ass Joe was."
She frowned "do you have to bring him up while were naked?"
He said "I just want you to know how important you are to me. You're my whole world and I would never hurt you."
She finally smiled and cupped his cheek "I love you Bobby."
He leaned in and kissed her lips. He rolled her underneath him and looked down at her "you're beautiful."
She smiled softly and he leaned down to kiss her.
Just as he moved his hand between them the phone rang.
They both groaned and Alex said "your's or mine?"
Bobby sighed "your's."
She saw that it was Captain Ross calling so she put a finger against her lips and answered the phone.
He listened to her side of the conversation. He hated that they had to keep their relationship a secret but he would do whatever it took to be with her.
He heard her say "yes Captain I'll call Bobby."
She hung up the phone and huffed "I know he can't stand you but would it kill him to say your name!"
He kissed her shoulder and they got dressed.
She said "have you seen my bra?"
He grinned as he held the strap on his finger and let it dangle just over her head.
She crossed her arms which pushed her breasts up unintentionally of course. She playfully said him "Bobby! Give it back!"
He stared at her breasts and said "why? I love the look."
She rolled her eyes "so you want me to go in public with no bra on so all the males we work with can see me?"
His smile quickly vanished and before he handed her bra he leaned down and kissed each of them. She giggled and he handed her bra.
She smiled triumphantly and kissed him "that's what I thought!"
Soon they were on the road.
After finishing with the body they went back to Alex's house since it was only 1:00 a.m. They immediately stripped and climbed in the bed. She took her spot next to him and slid her leg between his. He kissed her head when he saw her yawn "go to sleep baby."
She looked at him with tired eyes and kissed his lips. She rubbed her cheek against his chest and fell asleep.
He watched her for a moment and yawned. As long as she was with him he was able to fall asleep almost instantly. He reached over and turned off the light.
The next day they were sitting at their desks doing paper work. She looked at her phone when it buzzed and saw that it was a text from Liz. She looked at Bobby and said "I'm going down to the morgue Liz wanted to see me."
He furrowed his brow "want me to go with you?"
She thought about it for a second and grinned "you just looking for an excuse not to do your paper work. You stay here l'll be right back."
He pouted and she smiled.
She leaned across the table very discreetly and whispered "meet me in the parking garage in 10 minutes."
His eyes lit up and he nodded.
Alex was coming back from Liz's office when someone covered her mouth and pushed her against the column. Before she could panic she saw that it was Bobby.
She smiled against his hand and he leaned down to kiss her.
He whispered against her lips "I'm sorry I scared you but I couldn't let another minute go by without kissing you."
She wrapped her arms around his neck and pressed her lips against his.
Eventually he pulled away and she straightened her clothes. She held out her hand and he took it. As they got closer to their desks they let go. The Captain would have their heads if he knew they were in a relationship.
5:00 p.m. rolled around and they left.
They stopped by Bobby's apartment so he could grab some clothes and went back to her place.
They walked into her house and Alex rubbed the back of her neck. He came up behind her and took over. She moaned and closed her eyes.
He whispered by her ear "are you feeling alright?"
She sighed "I'm fine. Did you feel like someone was watching us in the parking garage today?"
He frowned "no. Maybe you were just paranoid about our little rendezvous."
She was not convinced and muttered "maybe."
He said "why don't I cook dinner and you go relax in the bathtub."
She smiled and turned in his arms to hug him "you're wonderful. Do you know that?"
He wrapped his arms around her and said "I try."
She sighed "well you succeed."
She reached up and grabbed his face to kiss him. He pulled her closer when their lips touched.
She pulled back and smiled "I love you."
He said "I love you too. Now go take your bath."
He playfully smacked her on the ass and she looked back and smiled.
He watched her go into the bathroom and he went to cook dinner.
Alex sat on the edge of the bathtub and touched the water. She stood up and stripped. She sank down into the water and closed her eyes. She could hear the noises coming from the kitchen. It was so comforting to know he was hers. She hated having to hide their relationship.
She pushed all those thoughts out of her mind and tried to relax.
After a minute of dozing she felt a hand brush her cheek. She frowned because it felt different than Bobby's.
She opened her eyes and started to scream but he put a hand over her mouth.
He said "don't scream! I'm not going to hurt you. You look beautiful."
She managed to choke out "Joe?"
He smirked "that's right. I'm back. Did you miss me? The years have been good to you. I can't believe you're fucking you're partner! What a slut! I wonder what would happen if it got out?"
Her eyes widened "you wouldn't!"
He angrily said "you don't know me at all. I don't want someone else fucking my wife! We are still married."
She swallowed hard "that didn't stop you when were married! How are you here? You're dead!"
He smiled "am I? Maybe you're going crazy?"
She just looked at him in fear then she closed her eyes tightly and sunk under the water. When she came back up and opened them thankfully he was gone.
She quickly drained the tub and grabbed her towel and ran to the kitchen "Bobby!"
He met her half way.
She was still dripping wet when she ran into his arms dropping her towel in the process.
He could hear her crying and she was shaking like a leaf "Ali, what's wrong?"
She shook her head and buried her face in his neck and clung to him.
He rubbed her back and scooped her up in his arms "let's go get you dressed."
He walked her to the bedroom and sat her on the bed. With a little coaxing she finally let go of him long enough for him to grab a shirt from his dresser drawer. He dried her off then slipped it on her.
He squatted in front of her and rested his hands on her knees "honey, what's wrong?"
In a quiet voice she said "you're going to think I'm crazy but I saw Joe."
He was thrown for a loop "you're dead husband Joe?"
She looked down and nodded.
"Alex baby, there is no one here but you and me."
"But he was in the bathroom. Bobby he said he didn't want me fucking you and that it would be a shame if it got out to the Captain. I can't lose you Bobby as a partner or lover."
He put his finger under her chin causing her to look him in the eyes "Ali, don't cry. Joe is dead. I don't know why you're starting to see him but I'm not going anywhere. You're mine now and I'm yours."
She sniffled "but Bobby he was serious..."
He kissed her passionately. She moaned into his mouth and he pulled back.
She moaned in protest "Bobby!"
He took her hands and kissed them. He said "I'm serious too. No one will take you away from me. Okay?"
She finally smiled and nodded.
He kissed her cheek and said "now no more talk about Joe tonight. Dinner is ready."
She followed him into the kitchen and smiled when she saw what he did. He made a candle light dinner with rose petals around the table.
She sighed "oh Bobby this is beautiful. When on earth did you have time to do this?"
He grinned and said "I have my ways. Have a seat my darling."
She smiled and sat down with a damp head. She was still dressed in Bobby's shirt and no panties. He scooted her chair in and brought out the plates.
He turned on some romantic music and said they began eating.
She gazed into his eyes "not that I'm complaining but what is all this for?"
He said "do I need a reason to pamper the love of my life?"
Tears sprung in her eyes and she reached over and grabbed his face. She kissed him passionately. She sat back down and said "you're to good to me. You're the only one who has ever done something for me and not expected anything in return."
It broke his heart to hear that.
He said "you only deserve the best and that's what I intend to give you for the rest of our lives if you will let me."
She cupped his cheek said "oh I will let you."
He sighed in relief "I was hoping you would say that."
She said "why?"
He pulled something out of his pocket and she gasped when she saw that it was a little black jewelry box.
He stood up and kneeled down on one knee. He opened the box and said "Alexandra Eames will you marry me?"
She started to cry and said "oh Bobby yes of course I'll marry you!"
He slipped the ring onto her finger and she threw herself at him. They spent the rest of the evening making love. Surprisingly, the phone didn't ring.
They were laying in bed and he said "I know you can't wear it all the time but I wanted you to have it."
She said "I'll wear it every day."
He sighed "Alex you can't..."
She touched his lips and said "shh. I'm tired of hiding our relationship. I'm ready to tell the Captain if you are. I want everyone to know that you're taken and that I'm yours."
He said "honey, I want that too but they will probably split us up."
She said "I know. This isn't fair!"
He kissed her head and said "will deal with that later."
She nodded "Bobby seriously how did you manage to do all that without me knowing?"
He grinned "I had a little help."
She looked at him puzzled "who?"
"Mike Logan and Carolyn Barek."
She knew their best friends had been dating for a while and would probably tie the knot soon.
She smiled softly and teased him "I can't believe you all kept this a secret from me. We've hung out with them almost every night and Carolyn has a big mouth. "
He laughed and said "Mike knew that I want it to be a surprise. He helped me pick out the ring while Carolyn picked the flowers."
She knew that Bobby thought of Mike like his brother. They had similar childhood's so they bonded over that and so much more.
She snuggled closer to him and kissed his chest.
He said "when do you want to get married?"
She said "soon as possible. I want to elope."
He grinned "courthouse?"
She nodded.
He said a silent prayer 'thank you.'
She looked at her ring and thought someone finally saved her from a potentially broken heart.
She said "you have good taste."
He smiled "I'm glad you like it."
She straddled him and looked into his eyes "when are we going to tell Ross?"
He grimaced and grabbed her hips "never say his name while were naked."
She laughed "deal. So when?"
He said "he will probably split us up."
She sighed "I know but maybe we can be paired with Mike and Carolyn. I'm tired of hiding our relationship Bobby. Guys keep hitting on me and I can't say anything."
He narrowed his eyes and angrily said "who?"
She smiled at his jealousy "just other cops but it doesn't matter because I want you."
He ran his hands up her thighs and just stared at her.
"Bobby?"
"If you want to tell him we can but we need to talk to Mike and Carolyn first. I don't want to throw them under the bus."
She smiled brightly and nodded "whatever you want."
He said "what I really want is to be inside you."
She grinned and raised herself up and took him inside her. They both moaned and she began riding him. He reached out and grabbed her breast.
He watched her as she rode him. She rested her hands on his shoulders. Her eyes were closed and her mouth was slightly open. He loved giving her full control which was something Joe never did. He learned a long time ago that she was very vocal during their love making.
She squeezed her vaginal muscles and he moaned. Soon she threw her head back. She moved faster and they both shouted each other's name. She collapsed on him. He rubbed her back as she caught her breath.
She raised her head and smiled at him. He pushed a strand of hair that stuck against her sweaty skin behind her ear and kissed her. He pulled back and said "I love it when you scream my name."
She grinned "I know."
She rolled off of him and snuggled into his side.
Eventually they both fell asleep.
In the middle of the night Alex woke up. She grimaced in pain when she felt Bobby squeeze her breast. She knew something was wrong because Bobby would never hurt her; his touch was always gentle. She turned over and gasped when she saw Joe looking back at her.
Her eyes flew open and she sat straight up. She saw the moonlight peaking through the curtains. She tried to control her heart rate.
She almost jumped out of her skin when she felt a hand on her back and heard a groggy voice say "are you alright?"
She looked at Bobby who was looking at her and she swallowed hard "I'm fine."
He pulled her back to him and held her.
"Ali, talk to me. You're not having second thoughts already are you?"
She gasped and said "no! God no of cour...you're joking."
He laughed and kissed her head "yes, I'm just messing with you but really what is it?"
She sighed "I dreamt about Joe."
He frowned "you want to talk about it?"
She looked at him and said "no. There's nothing to talk about."
Bobby watched as she laid on her side and took his arm with her. They spooned and she said "just hold me."
He kissed the back of her head and pulled her close. He threw his leg over her. He felt her kiss his hand and she sighed. After a few he heard her breathing even out and knew she was asleep.
He whispered "I love you Alex" then he fell back asleep.
The next morning Alex woke up alone. She frowned and reached for Bobby's shirt. After slipping it on her she buttoned only 3 buttons and walked into the living room.
She said "Bobby? Where are you?"
"In the kitchen!"
She breathed a sigh of relief and followed his voice.
She saw him cooking just one of his many hidden talents.
She walked up behind him and slid her arms around him. She rubbed her cheek against his back and breathed in his scent.
He patted her hands and said "are you okay?"
She nodded "I just wish I could figure out why I'm seeing Joe all of a sudden."
"Maybe its guilt?"
She let go of him and put her hands on her hips.
She said "guilt?"
He shrugged "you're finally happy and he's dead."
She snapped and said "he cheated on me and I'm not allowed to be happy?!"
He turned around to face her and brushed her cheek with the back of his hand. He said "of course you're allowed to be happy. You deserve it."
She finally smiled and grabbed his hand to kiss his knuckles.
He said "I called Mike and he said that he and Carolyn will meet us at the restaurant tonight."
She nodded "okay."
He looked at her hand "don't forget to take you're ring off!"
She slowly nodded and snuggled into his arms "I really hate hiding our relationship. Can I at least tell Carolyn at work today?"
He kissed her head "I know so do I but we will be able to let everyone know soon and lets save the news for dinner."
She smiled brightly "I can't wait."
They ate breakfast and got ready for work.
He watched her put her ring in the box then her jewelry box. She turned around with a sad look on her face.
He immediately took her in his arms and he said "you can put it on when we get home."
She nodded and they left for work.
Little did they know someone had been watching them waiting for them to leave.
