Chapter 1. The beginning.
Kevin Ryan was sitting at his desk at the 12th precinct waiting for Esposito and Becket to come in to work. While he is waiting, his mind keeps wandering back to the night before. His passionate night with the beautiful redhead. He had only met her to days ago, in a coffeeshop. They had just started talking to each other somehow while waiting for their coffees, and continued to talk for hours. They connected in a way he had never connected with anyone ever before. She was so easy to talk to, and the more they got to know each other the more attracted to her he got. They had a lot in common, more in common than he ever thought he could have with this 19 years old college student named Alexis.
Alexis was by far the most mature 19 years old he had ever met. She was almost more mature than him. She was smart, funny, independent and incredibly beautiful. They had exchanged phone numbers and agreed to see each other again the next day. Their first date, last night, had ended with them spending the night together at his place, having incredible, amazing, mind blowing sex, all night. It was like they couldn`t get enough of each other.
He didn`t really know how things would go from here, but he knew that he wanted to have her around. There was this age difference between them that seemed to not be an issue when they were together. But he wondered anyway if the 8 years between them would become a problem in the future. How could he know for sure that Alexis was ready for that, ready to have a real relationship with someone so much older than herself. Maybe she wasn`t ready for something serious at all. With him or with anyone. They hadn`t really talked about it.
He got torn out of his thoughts by Beckets voice, greeting him when she walked past his desk. He looked up at her, smiled and greeted her back.
"How long have you been here?" Becket asked
"An hour more or less" he answered
"What were you thinking about just now, Ryan" Becket looks at him with this curious expression.
" Oh nothing, just this amazing girl I met a couple of days ago. We had a date yesterday, and it didn`t really end until this morning" he smiled. Still with the images from the night before and the early morning, fresh in his mind.
It was a slow morning so the detectives did paperwork and waited for the phone to ring, to tell them there had been a murder. Kevin concentrated on his paperwork so he could get done as soon as possible. Some hours later, close to lunchtime he heard his phone ping. It was at text message from Alexis.
Alexis: Hey Handsome. Thank you for the best date (and sex) ever. I really like you, and hope we can do it again. Are you free for lunch? Love Alexis
He read the message a few times more before he answered with a big grin on his face.
Kevin: Hello to you to Gorgeous. I enjoyed it very much to, and can`t get you out of my head. I am very much free for lunch, with you. When and where? Kevin
He got a response back before he could even put away his phone. Alexis: There is this café right outside the campus called The Café. I don't know if you know it, but we could meet there in 20 minutes? A
Kevin: I`ve heard of it. See you there in 20. K
He put his phone in his pocket and stood up grabbed his jacket. "Going out for lunch. Back in an hour." He told Esposito while walking to the elevator. Javier was a little surprised by that and shook his head, he had not seen Kevin this happy in a long time, and could not remember the last time the detective actually went out to grab lunch. But he didn`t say anything.
20 minutes later Kevin arrived at the café, and smiled when he noticed that Alexis was already there. "Hey beautiful," he said to her and kissed her before he sat down. "Hello detective," she smiled at him. Alexis felt the butterflies, just like she did the night before. She knew it would not take her long to fall hard for him. She hoped that he would fall for her to, but she didn`t really believe it. Why would a grown man like Kevin Ryan be interested in her? He was here though, and that had to mean something, right? Kevin pulled her out of her thoughts with his voice, asking her what she was thinking about. She bit her lower lip and didn't know if she should tell the truth or come up with a lie. She decided to be honest. "I was thinking about you. About last night, and the way you were touching me, kissing me and making love to me. It was amazing." She bit her lip again and smiled a little, but didn't look at him. "I need to be honest with you. I like you, a lot and want to spend as much time with you as possible. I think I could fall hard for you, but if you don't see this going anywhere, I need to know" she looked up at him and met his eyes. She was a little unsecure and embarrassed. Kevin smiled at her and she could feel her heart pumping fast. His smile was genuine and beautiful. "I appreciate you being honest. I`m honest to when I say that I really like you to, and I could see this going somewhere. You are the most amazing girl I ever met, and I have never felt this kind of connection with anyone else ever, that I feel with you. If it`s okay with you I want to go on another date." He met her eyes. "I wouldn`t be here right now if it was just about the sex." He didn't break eye contact with her. She was so mesmerized by his amazingly clear blue eyes that she had a hard time to respond. "I would really like that" she whispered eventually, not losing eye contact with him. They sat there in silence and just kept eye contact for a long time, until Kevin finally broke his eyes away and said they should order some food.
They ate. While eating they talked about everything and nothing. Until Kevin noticed the time and knew he had to go back to the precinct. "I should go back to the precinct. I said I would only be gone for an hour, but I promise to call you tonight." He said as they made their way out the door. When outside he put his arms around her waist and pulled her closer. "I`m going to kiss you now!" He leaned down and captured her lips with his in a long, passionate kiss that took her breath away. She could see a smile mirroring hers, on his face, when he pulled away. "See you later beautiful." He said as he walked away. She just stood there and looked after him until he disappeared in the crowd.
Yeah, she could certainly see herself falling for detective Kevin Ryan. Maybe she already had.
Kevin and Alexis were really enjoying their date later that evening. They had seen a movie and now they were taking a walk in the park. Kevin took Alexis`s hand in his, entwining their fingers. They walked in comfortable silence for a while before Kevin was the first to break the silence. "What do you want to do next?" He stopped and locked eyes with her. "We can go over there end by some milkshakes and sit down, or we could just be here for a while?" He smiled and moved closer to her. She put her arms around his waist and looked up at him. "Yeah, I say we stay right here for a while." She smiled up at him and leaned in closer, lifting her head a little so her lips were only inches from his. Before she could even think, he attacked her lips. They both moaned in to the kiss and she deepened it. They stopped long enough to catch their breath before kissing again. She opened her mouth a little to give his tongue access. They stood there kissing for a long time. Before things got to heated Kevin pulled away. "We should probably stop before this get to heated. Maybe we can continue this back at my place." He said and looked Alexis deep in the eyes. "Yes, that sounds good. Ending this date like we ended the first one, yesterday." She smirked at him. He gave her a quick kiss and grabbed her hand, entwining their fingers before they walked out of the park together towards his car. The trip to his apartment was fast and quiet. When they reach Kevin`s building, they walk inside and up to his apartment. The door to the apartment is barley closed when he pushes her against it and attacks her lips with his own. Kevin kiss her roughly and hard, with a lot of want and passion. His hands wander up and down her body. Her hands find their way around his waist, and pulls him closer, as close she can get him. She can feel his erection against her, and moans. They started to move to the bedroom when things got even more heated, and clothes were shed all the way there. They ended in bed, naked together, making love. They continued making love all night, just like the night before.
In the morning they woke up together after maybe 2 hours of sleep. They look at each other and smile. "Good morning beautiful." Kevin says and give her a quick kiss on the lips. "Good morning to you to handsome." Alexis kiss him back. "This is definitely the best way to wake up. I could get used to this." She kisses him again. "I totally agree with you on that." He smiles at her and lock eyes with her. They just lay there for a while in comfortable silence, enjoying the moment of being close to each other.
Soon enough they need to get up. Kevin needs to go to work and Alexis have classes. But they both wish they could stay like this the whole day. Eventually they got up to take a shower and get ready for the day. They chose to shower together, and that ended up taking much longer than they intended, as they ended up having sex in the shower. After 30 minutes they got out of the shower and got dressed. They headed for the kitchen to make breakfast. Kevin made pancakes. Alexis sat at the counter watching him, thinking. She was lost in her thoughts for a while. Thinking about Kevin. How great he was. The sound of his voice shook her out of it, and she looked at him and smiled. "What were you thinking about just now?" Kevin asked as he put some pancakes on a plate and gave it to her. "Oh, it was nothing, just how much I like you." She smiled shyly and looked down at her plate. Kevin took a bite of his own pancake and smiled at her. He put his hand on her face and lifted it so he could make eye contact with her. "I like you very much to. He said without breaking eye contact. Than he leaned forward and kissed her deeply. "I know this is fast, but I really feel a deep connection to you. We are probably moving too fast, but it feels right. If you want to slow things down we can, if not we keep going the way we do now, either way I hope you will consider being my girlfriend." He says when they break the kiss. She stares at him, surprise shows in her eyes, but she smiles. Kevin feels his heart swelling as he looks at her. That beautiful smile makes his heart skip a beat. "I would love to be your girlfriend, Kevin." Alexis meets his eyes and feel her heart skip a beat. The butterflies in her stomach goes crazy and her head is spinning. She`s in love. Kevin feels his head spinning and the butterflies are everywhere. He is so happy that he feels his heart is going to explode. He`s in love.
