Ok, another new fic. I've always had all these little ideas about things that could happen between Cal and Gillian but they were never really major enough to be fleshed out into a full fic. So then my brain was like 'STOP' (which I promptly did) before it informed me I should write down these ideas and make them into mini chapters which I could then post. So there you have it. Here is the first of several stolen moments between Cal and Gillian :) Oh yeah, and I still don't own Lie to Me.

He smiles at her from a distance. It is a special smile, the one he reserves only for her. Of course she doesn't know this but she loves it nevertheless. When he finishes his conversation he walks up to her.

'Hey. You leaving now?'

Picking up a file from reception she shakes her head and they both walk in sync towards her office.

'Nah. Just going to go through this case file again.'

He raises his eyebrows.

'Love, its 10pm. You need your rest.'

'Well, what are you going to do now?'

'Go over a few videos in my office.'

'So it's ok for you to be working late but not me?'

'Exactly.'

'Chauvinist.'

She says it with affection.
'No love. Simply concerned for your wellbeing.'

'Because mine is so much more important than yours.'

'It is.'

Another smile. The one just for her. It makes her want to throw her arms around his neck and never let go.
