The bar was crowded but I can see him from across the room and we gravitate towards each other like magnets. After some work talk Tucker suggests we get a drink. He's nervous as hell and looks like a teenager asking a girl out for the first time with a boyish charm that's downright irresistible. He's definitely out of his element and I can't help but smirk. When did Tucker become an alias and not the enemy? We start talking as if there's never been a problem in our past. Hell he arrested me and was convinced I committed murder. Now I'm sitting next to him smiling and laughing. Realization has set in that I am flirting with Ed Tucker, and he is flirting back. I looked down at my watch and I realize that I need to go home so Lucy can go. Tucker walks me out and we stand outside the bar not quite sure what to do next.

Tucker looks at me with a smug grin on his face. "I'm sure you weren't expecting your evening to end like this when you woke up this morning."

"Not exactly, but it was a welcomed surprise." We make eye contact again and I need to leave before I wind up doing or saying something I'll regret.

"Do you want me to call you a cab?"

"I was actually going to walk, I'm just a few blocks."

He looks at me and cocks his head to the side. "Olivia, if I'm correct your apartment is easily 20 blocks from here. If you don't want to take a cab then let me drive you home."

"I am a trained police officer, and I'm carrying. Besides its nice out." I look at him trying my best to convince him that I'm going to be fine but it's not working.

"Will you just let me be a gentleman and take you home."

As we pull up to my apartment building we both sort of sit here not knowing what to do or say. He finally turns towards me and his right hand reaches for my left. "If you're up for it I'd like to see you again Olivia."

I can't help but stare at our intertwined hands. Am I really holding hands with Ed Tucker after drinks and did he just ask me out on a second date? He tips my chin with his other hand and asks me if everything is ok.

"I'm wondering how we got here. I'm just thrown a little." And just when I think my night is crazy enough, Tucker says something even crazier.

"I have this incredible urge to kiss you right now. I've been thinking about it all night."

Thank God he's holding my chin already with his hand otherwise it would've been on the floor. This is not the Ed Tucker I know.

"I really was trying to pay attention to what you were saying at the bar but when you were taking those sips of your drink I couldn't concentrate on anything but you and your lips."

I look at him and see affection in his eyes but most of all I see lust. I have a feeling I have the same look in my eyes because we both lean in at the same time. The kiss starts off simple and sweet. As the kiss progresses he shifts in the drivers seat and as he does his elbow hits the horn. We both jump and anger combines with sexual frustration but we soon can't stop laughing. The smile on his face is probably one of the sexiest things I've ever seen. Before tonight I've never seen him smile. I thought his sheepish smile at the bar was going to be my undoing but I was terribly mistaken. This smile is spontaneous, honest and 100% sexy. I can definitely get used to having Ed Tucker in my life, I only hope he feels the same way
