"If you don't risk anything, you risk more" Harry read to himself as he picked up the note he had found on his desk. He frowned and looked over at Leo's office which was empty and wondered why the older man had left him this note. All coherent thoughts shot out of his head however when he looked up from the note and saw Nikki enter the lab, his heart jumped to his throat when he saw his best friend and the woman he had been in love with for years and he looked back at his desk to hide the blush that was rising in his cheeks.
"Morning" Nikki greeted cheerfully as she took off her coat and placed it on the back of her chair "Are you alright Harry?"
"Yeah" Harry smiled as he looked up at her "Morning"
"Where's Leo?" Nikki asked as she glanced into the empty office just as Harry made a split second decision.
"Nikki would you…I mean..um…oh scrap that.." he muttered as he walked over to his bemused co-worker and leant down to kiss her on the lips, the note from Leo still in his hands. Nikki made a noise of surprise and Harry drew back quickly. "I'm sorry I…."
Harry didn't finish his sentence as Nikki leant up and gave him another, more passionate, kiss wrapping her arms around his neck as she did so. They stayed like that for a few minutes then, after remembering they were in their workplace where people could walk in at any moment, they reluctantly broke apart.
"What brought that on?" Nikki asked quietly
"A note from Leo" Harry replied as he leant down to kiss her again "Nikki can I take you out for dinner tonight? I intend to woo you like a proper gentleman should do to a lady like you"
"I'd like that" Nikki smiled and Harry's heart jumped "but I expect to see you in tux"
