MEANT TO BE

cHAPTER ONE: Party time

The cold case squad were all over at Scotty's apartment on a warm friday night to celebrate his birthday. Lilly was in his kitchen getting herself another beer when she felt a familar presence behind her.

"I thought I told you not to sneak up on people Valens" she said unable to hid the amusement in her voice.

"Just gettin' another Beer Rush, no law against that is there?" He asked standing so close behind her she felt his hot breath on her neck and she shivered. They had been spending alot of time together outside of work lately in the last few months since she'd been shot and she felt so much closer to him. Turning around to face him she he smiled at her and she felt her heart flip and she swallowed hard. Scotty moved in closer and lowered his head towards hers and instinctvely she moved towards him. Thier lips mer millimeters apart when they heard someone clear thier throat behind them and they jumped apart.

" Hey guys" Miller said the amusement was evident in her voice and Lilly blushed furiously and Scotty turned away so Kat couldn't see he was just as red faced.

" Just comming in to say goodbye Veronica not feeling to well so I am going home" Kat said and Lilly nodded

"Okay Kat see you on monday" She repiled softly as Scotty composed himself and turned around to wave goodbye to her. They followed her as she walked back to the living room and watched her moved out the door waving goodbye to the others. Stillman rose off the couch and turned to face the others

" I think I am going to go aswell" he said

" I walk you out John" Jefferies stood to leave with his old friend waving goodbye to their younger colleagues. Scotty sat back on the couch and Lilly delibrately avoiding his eyes sat on the chair opposite.

" Well I am off" Vera said awhile later "I am exhausted" he stood up and walked towards the door.

" Hey don't offer to clean up or anything" Scotty replied sarcastically

" You got Rush she's a girl, she clean up" Vera replied shooting a look at Lilly and she pick up a pillow and fired it at his retreating back and it hit the door.

" I help you clean up Scotty" Lilly said walking to pick up the pillow off the floor.

"Nah Lil its cool I clean up tommorow" Scotty said standing up and walking over to her. Her eyes still on the floor she moved to pick up her bag.

" Well I guess I go then, its getting late" She said finally meeting his gaze

" You don't have to go Lil" he said softly moving in closer to her he raised a hand to brush a lock of hair away from her face and his thumb caressed the skin of her cheek. She felt her heart race and the sudden rush of heat around her body she swallowed hard as he lowered his head towards her his lips parted. Thier lips met softly at first and then grew more hurried as Lilly started to respond. She felt his tounge slip in to her mouth and she pulled back.

" I am sorry Scotty I just don't think this is a good idea" Scotty's hand left her face and he sighed.

"I thought you wanted this too Lil, you can't tell me you haven't notice whats been happening between us over the last few months" Scotty said softly and tears began to sting her eyes.

"I do but our friendship means alot to me and I can't risk losing you to" a single tear rolled down her cheek and he wiped it away.

" Lil I aint going anywhere" he moved in again " I really care about you Lil" his head lowered towards hers and thier lips met again. Her hands moved behind his head her fingers threading through his raven hair. He deepened the kiss snaking his touge out to massage hers.

"You wanna stay over lil" he asked against her lips and she nodded they stummbled towards his bedroom shedding clothes as they went. They collapased on his bed and he rolled her underneath his hands rooming over her body and she moaned as he began massaging the breast his other and moved down her flat stomach and between her thighs. Her breath caught in her throat as fingers brushed over her centre.

"Oh god Scotty" she groaned and her hands sliped over his over his slick shoulders and around his neck. His hands lowered her underwear over her hips and his lips began kissing a trail down her neck His tounge licking the sensetive spot under her ear and she groaned again.

He broke thier kiss brieftly to stare at her.
"Lil are you sure about this cause we can stop now....." She silenced him with a kiss and she felt him grin against her lips.

"Yes I am sure" she replied

He got off the bed and moved towards the dresser to get the box of condoms and as his back was to her he hadn't noticed she to had gotten up to move behind him until he felt her arms sliding around his waist pushing a kiss in the nape of his neck and one hand move down to his boxers slipping it in and feeling his erection growing. He groan and almost dropped the box. He turned in her arms and they started backing up to the bed again, Lilly giggled at as his lips moved to her neck but it quickly turned into a soft moan as they fell back to the bed. Scotty removed his boxers and tearing open a condom he rolled it on, Positioning himself over her entrance he slid into her slowly.

"SCOTTY" she cried out as she felt him move inside of her and he whispered her name against her pale skin. He upped his pace and Lilly shifted her legs onto his hips so he could reach deeper inside of her.

"This feels so fucking good Lil" He moaned and her lips sought his as waves of pleasure washed over her and her nails dug into his back. Scotty's thrust became harder and she fell into the most intense orgasm of her life. Her muscles contracted around him and the thrust even faster into her. Lilly felt him lift her hips and she cried out at the new angle and with one final thrust he split himself into her and his arms gave way as he fell against her.

"That was..." was all he could manage Lilly traced absent circles over his back

"Yes it was" Lilly kissed his forehead and he managed to raise his head long enough to kiss her lips before he rolled off her.

Lilly rolled over to snuggle up to him pillowing her head on his chest. " Happy birthday Valens" she smile and drapped a arm of his chest and tangling he legs with his.

"Thanks Rush" wrapping his arms around her he closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep and she soon followed lulled by the rhythm of his heart.
