Davis got up the next morning to study her material. She knew OCS was coming up. She still hadn't told anyone and as happy as she was over this kiss she knew it could end their career if someone found out. There was so much on the line. She decided if Sonny brought it up- which there was a chance he wouldn't- then she would explain that it was fraternization. She hated it, but it was for the best. Then, she'd soon after tell him about OCS. Maybe the fact that it would no longer be fraternization would soften the blow of her becoming a 'cake eater' and he'd be happy they wouldn't be considered 'fraternizing.' The timing of this was either perfect or an absolute disaster.

Clay had to get out of his apartment so he goes in and re-arranges stuff in his cage. Davis is in doing some inventory and sees how miserable he is. She decides to text Sonny.

"We've got to get Clay out." She sends

Sonny feels his phone buzz and picks it up to see a message from Davis. His heart briefly skips a beat, they hadn't talked since the night before when they kissed. "Mhmm. You want to see me again" he thinks to himself as he laughs.

"Sounds like a plan. Let's tell him to meet us at 7" Sonny replies

Clay reluctantly agrees but knows there are fewer things Sonny can talk him into with Davis there.

That night they meet up and Clay is still moping.

"Davis, I feel like operation change of scenery is a failure because the long lost Jonas brother is still miserable. Look at those pouty lips" Sonny says making Clay briefly smile

"I don't know, " Davis replies "was the objective to cheer him up or just to get him out of that smelly apartment?" she looks at Clay then back to Sonny.

"Well, if it was the smell we were worried about we shouldn't have come to a place with natty lighting and three decades of décor and a war clinging to the walls" Sonny replies

"Décor and a war?" she ask rolling her eyes. "Well look, it is a proven fact you can't dance and be sad at the same time" she say play dancing towards Clay pulling his arm towards her.

"No, no…. Clay is not a dancer, he just isn't" Clay tells her

"You realize it is bad manners to decline a lady's invitation to dance?" Sonny tells him

"Thank you!" Davis replies

"Ok then, why don't you be Mr. Chivalries and take the lady dancing?" Clay answers pointing towards Davis.

"Ha ha…yeah" Sonny laughs

"Come on cowboy put your spurs on" Clay pats Sonny's leg. "I'm gonna get us some more beer" he says getting up.

"Get me a whisky" Sonny replies

"I'll get you a cosmo" Clay says turning to go to the bar

"Wooo" Davis laughs at Clay's sarcasm

"Well alright" Sonny laughs

"You didn't really want to dance did you?" Davis asked just to be sure. She didn't think Sonny did but she wasn't opposed.
"Oh hell no, I'd rather be bulled kicked in the gut. Sonny don't dance" he picks up chip and eats it. "I saw what you were doing though" he playfully motions towards her.

"Doin what?" Davis ask

"Trying to make me jealous asking that big ol stud Clay Spenser to dance" Sonny teases as he moves his shoulders mock dancing.

"Sonny! I was trying to be a good friend" she explains as Sonny laughs heartily "to someone who needs one" she finshes.

"Uh huh" he laughs and grabs a chip and sip of beer.

She looks at him- "Do you want to talk about it?"

"Talk about what?" he ask taking another drink

She waves her hand towards him "What happened when we got back from Mexico"

Sonny looks at her serious as can be "Oh, you mean when you kissed me"

"Oh no uh hold up ok- when WE kissed"

"Yeah you know it was pretty good too. Some might actually say, it was great" he says sitting back confidently.

Davis takes a drink of her beer and doesn't reply which makes Sonny re-think his statement.
"What?, it wasn't great?" he ask

"I would just say that it can't happen again" she leans forward with her arms on the table.

"Did I have bad breath? Cause I was eating trail mix and I probably hadn't brushed my teeth" he explains

"Sonny, you know I really wish you'd take this seriously for just a second" she tells him

"Ok" he replies looking at her.

"We're in the same unit. The UCMJ says that kiss was illegal. Fraternization is a living violation so was it worth jeopardizing our careers over?" she ask

He sits back.. "I feel like this is a trick question Davis" he tells her drinking his beer.

She looks at him. "Oh come on, you can't deny that this is fun" he says holding his hands out hoping she is just messing with him.

"Yes I can, I have to. We both do" She replies looking at him seriously.

"Ok" he replies heartbroken inside and takes another drink.

"Ok" she agrees as she starts to take a drink also. She thought she was in the clear and opening the door to tell him later about OCS, but that look on his face after she told him they had to take jeopardizing their careers seriously- she couldn't do it. She had to give him something to let him know she thought it was incredible too.

"It was great" she concedes before taking the drink

Sonny lights up and points at her "See! I told you was" he says smiling ear to ear. She briefly puts her hand over his and laughs. Sonny catches XClay walking out with something in his hand and they both run after him. Once they 'rescued' Clay from himself, they decided to call it a night and Sonny took Clay home.

The next day they were called in on a mission to help some hostages on a hijacked plane. After the briefing Davis walks over to Sonny. "Hey" She says patting him mid back, "did you talk to him about last night, is he alright?"

"Oh yeah, last night was the result of trying to drink a run in with your ex. You know, a messy but necessary step in the relationship recovery cycle" Sonny explains

She looks at him completely confused "What do you know about relationships?"

"Oh easy Davis" he says thinking he went a little too deep for his norm "he just needs to rub some dirt on it and walk it off"

She rolls her eyes "Unbelievable"

"What I do?" he ask as she walks away. 'Geez' he thought to himself. She doesn't like the first explanation and finds the second absurd. Ugh'

She walks over to the briefing table and Blackburn ask if she's decided how she will tell the guys about OCS. Time has now passed since Alana's death and maybe now is right for her to say something. "You know I don't leave for a few more weeks so… I'd rather skip the cake eater cracks the whole time" she explains. "Well you never know they might surprise you" Blackburn tells her. She hopes he's right. Currently though she's not willing to take the risk. Especially with the one SEAL team member that is going to take it harder than anyone. She would have to figure it out, but the way he looked at her when they would talk… she just couldn't.

After the mission is over Clay and Sonny make plans to meet at the bar. Sonny can't help but think about Davis and the fact that she agreed their kiss was great. He wanted to be near her. She made him feel alive and happy…and content. He tried thinking of excuses, debated on just going ahead and meeting Clay instead but he just didn't want to. After more debating, driving to the bar to see if maybe Davis showed up and seeing she didn't he decided to text Clay. "Hey, I'm not going to be able to make it" as he decided to go by Davis' apartment.
