Hey Guys!! This is my first real story so be gentle! Lol Anyways I'll try to get each chapter as quick as I can but don't expect one every day.

Disclaimer: I do not own Walker, Texas Ranger or any of the characters!!

Chapter One

Alex Cahill woke up with an unusual sense of security. She was currently wrapped in Cordell Walker's arms. Shifting, Alex smiled when she saw that he was still sleeping because usually Walker's up before dawn. Her eyes grazed over his sleeping face and bare chest when she suddenly recalled why she had spent the night for the first time.

Blushing, Alex remembered how Walker had asked her to stay the night with him, finally letting down the walls around his heart. They had spent most of the night making love for the first time before falling asleep in each other's arms. Alex glanced over at the clock, saw that it was 8:30 am, and realized that they needed to get moving so they wouldn't be late.

'I'll let him sleep a little bit longer, he never takes a break.' Alex thought, smiling

Giving Walker a gentle kiss on his lips, Alex detangled her from his strong arms. Looking around his room, Alex noticed a short bathrobe. Pulling it around her, the sleepy blonde made her way down the stairs and to the kitchen.

Walker woke up to the bright sun shining in his eyes. Stretching, Walker noticed that Alex wasn't in his bed with him. Listening carefully, Walker heard his girlfriend singing in the lower part of the ranch. Smiling, Walker put on some sweats and rubbed the sleep from his eyes before going downstairs to get her. When he reached the bottom of the stairs, he could smell eggs and bacon.

"Morning, Beautiful." Walker whispered in Alex's ear wrapping his arms around her waist.

Alex jumped and turned in his arms to face him, "Don't you make any noise? You almost ga-"

Walker cut off her teasing rant with a kiss. Alex's eyes fluttered close and her arms snaked around Walker's neck. Deeping the kiss, Walker's hand found Alex's face. Leaving her lips, Walker trailed kisses up and down her neck as she held back a moan. Whispering in her ear again, Walker asked, "What do you have under that robe Ms. Cahill?"

Giggling, Alex slipped out of Walker's arms saying, "Wouldn't you like to know Ranger?"

Walker watched Alex fondly as she stirred the eggs. As she finished cooking, Alex sang quietly to herself. She rummaged through Walker's cabinets for a moment before finding two plates. Arranging the food so it all fit, Alex made the two plates before handing it to Walker.

As the couple sat down at the dining room table, Walker commented, "Smells amazing."

"I hope it tastes as good." Alex laughed as she took a bite.

Walker smiled over at her as he started to eat as well. As they ate breakfast in a comfortable silence, Walker couldn't keep his eyes off Alex. Her blonde hair was slightly messy and kept falling into her face and her blue eyes kept flickering in his direction as she continued to eat.

Alex picked up the two empty plates when they finished eating and went into the kitchen to set them in the sink. Turning, Alex found Walker right behind her. He placed his hands on either side of her before capturing her lips in a hungry kiss. Alex forgot everything except his lips on hers as she returned the kiss. Wrapping her arms around his neck, Alex deepened the kiss by leaning against him.

"I'm not ready to go to work, how about you?" Walker asked kissing her neck.

Alex didn't trust her voice so all she did was shake her head as Walker kissed her again and picked her up and carried her back to the bedroom.

"Where is he? Walker is never late, ever." James Trivette stated glancing uneasily at his partner's desk again.

"Dude chill, he's only an hour late." Francis Gage mumbled, his eyes never leaving the mound of paperwork piled in front of him.

"You should've finished that paperwork the day you got it, but no you had to leave it until the last minute." Sydney Cooke teased shaking her long, dark hair out of her face.

Gage playfully threw a wad of paper at his partner before quickly going back to his paperwork. Sydney laughed as Jimmy snapped at Gage to focus and Gage glared back. Jimmy shook his head before writing something down on the file in front of him. Walker walked in and greeted his fellow rangers.

"Where have you been? There could've been an emergency." Trivette scolded ignoring his partner's cheery greeting.

Walker rolled his eyes, replying, "Then you have my number and you would've called me. I'm allowed to come in late every once and a while. Calm down please."

Jimmy rolled his eyes at his best friend's playful tone and just turned back to his computer. Walker sat at his desk and flipped through the files as Gage started on another file. The ranger's worked in silence for about thirty minutes when Alex walked in.

"Morning Rangers." Alex greeted, walking over to Sydney.

"Don't distract my rangers Counselor." Jimmy playfully shot over to Alex as she bent down to whisper in Sydney's ear.

"Be quiet Jimmy. Walker, can I steal Sydney for a few minutes?" Alex asked smiling over at Walker.

Walker nodded, giving Alex a genuine smile making her flush. Pulling Sydney from her chair, Alex led her best friend into the hallway.

"Why were you late?" Sydney asked as the stopped a few feet from Company B's door.

"Walker asked to stay the night and we woke up late and then went back to bed…" Alex explained flushing happily.

"Finally! I thought something was physically wrong with him or something…" Sydney commented hugging her friend.

Sydney laughed as Alex playfully pushed her and that got Alex laughing. The two girls giggled together as the other three rangers came out of Company B. Spotting them, Sydney nudged Alex and the girls quieted down, but couldn't stop smiling.

"What would a Texas ranger and an assistant district attorney be going on about?" Gage asked poking Sydney in her side.

Moving away from her partner, Sydney answered, "Nothing you need to know."

Gage rolled his blue eyes at the guys and Sydney responded by punching his arm. Jimmy laughed as the two started playfully attacking each other. Walker wrapped his arms around Alex's waist and she leaned back into his embrace as she listened to the two partners quarrel.

"Hello?" Jimmy answered his phone still laughing slightly.

Walker watched as Jimmy's face turned serious almost immediately. Gage noticed and nodded towards him. Sydney turned and fell silent beside Gage as they waited the news. Jimmy hung up his phone before turning back to the now silent and tense group.

"Murder downtown." Was all Jimmy had to say to get everyone moving.

Sydney hugged Alex quickly as Jimmy and Gage made their way outside, waving. Walker kissed her on the cheek, promising to call her later before going outside to meet up with the other rangers. Alex smiled and waved before turning to enter her cluttered office.

'You never get to spend much time with the rangers before their work catches up with them,' Alex saw Walker backing out of the parking lot from her office window, 'But I'm okay with that.'
