Chapter 1

Someone once said:
"As we get older we let the
monsters into our beds"

Emily arrived home late after having spent four days out on a horrifying case. The smell of chicken and bacon had already filled her apartment and her smile instantly grew. Hurriedly, she made her way to the kitchen and smiled even more at the sight of her boyfriend. And he was cooking.
They didn't live together, but they had each other's keys so they could come and go as they pleased. It was something extra to come home after a case to a surprise like this.
"Honey, I'm home," Emily said from the doorway and Doug turned around.
"Welcome home, babe," he said, letting go of the frying pan and meeting her in a passionate kiss that only Doug could pull off. They always made her knees weak.
Her boyfriend went back to his cooking and Emily just watched him doing his magic. She knew she was falling for the slightly younger man, but this time she didn't care. Doug was a man she let in on her feelings. He was the only one she had showed every single emotion to. And he was the only one who knew everything there was about her. Okay, she couldn't tell him everything about Doyle, but he knew bits and pieces of it, enough to understand why she was struck with bad days. Overall, he was probably the person who had gotten to know her the best. There was something about him that managed to pull everything out of her. If she had a bad day he would be there and he wouldn't let it go until he knew what was bothering her. They had their fights too of course, but what couple didn't? And besides, it always ended in hot make up sex.
"What's going on in that pretty head of yours?" he asked, like so many times before.
"Just thinking about how much I love you," she said, honestly, her dreamy orbs looking straight into his.
"Then move in with me."
Emily choked on her breath at the sudden comment.
"We've only been dating for 2 months, don't you think it's a little too fast," Emily asked, but in her mind she was screaming HELL YES, LET'S DO IT!
"Emily, we practically live together already. I'm always at your place or you're at my place. Wouldn't it be nice to just have one place together?"
Emily smirked. "You really want this?"
"I'm crazy about you! I want to wake up next to you every morning... Well, except when you've got a case."
"Okay, let's do it," Emily said without putting any further thoughts on it and he looked at her with a grin that would make a cheshire cat pale in comparison.
"I knew you could never resist my offer."
Emily shook her head and sat down by the table. Moving in together. Wow. She would've never in a million years imagine that the man who hit on her at the club during one of their girl's night out would turn out to be this amazing man. She wouldn't even have called him if JJ hadn't pressured her. She owed her friend everything for finally finding someone she loved. Looking at her boyfriend, the man she hoped to spend the rest of her life with, everything seemed perfect, just the way she wanted it for once. It felt like nothing could ever go wrong now.

A/N That was the first chapter! I hope people will continue to read:)
