I wanted to take the opportunity to say thank you for the reviews and questions. I certainly have enjoyed writing this adventure. I think we have maybe two more chapters to go.


Mac was the first to wake. Will was still laying with his head on her chest, his arm under her shirt, and his hand just under her breast.

She ran her fingers through his hair and heard him moan. "Why are you awake," he mumbled into her chest.

"Just woke up," she said, lifting her head to kiss his temple.

He lifted himself up and kissed her. "Do you want to try to sleep some more?"

"Sleeping," she said before kissing him again, and then said, "or kissing you, I'm not sure. I think kissing is winning out right now."

His hand moved to cup her breast. He wasn't sure if he was moving too fast, or if she'd have a problem with the new contact. "Mac."

"MMM…nice."

"Are you okay, Mac," he questioned between kisses.

"If I didn't want you to touch me, I wouldn't be sleeping with you, Billy."

He moved so that he was laying half on top of her, kissing her deeply. When he pulled back her hand was on his cheek, guiding him back to her mouth. She was playing with his ear, running her finger along the edge with the lightest of touches. She knew that his ears were very sensitive.

He moved to her neck where he kissed and nibbled on her skin.

"God, Billy," she moaned, arching up from under him. He felt so good laying on top of her, kissing her neck, cupping her breast and teasing her.

She rolled so that she was now lying fully on top of him. Her mouth was on his ear, flicking the lobe with her tongue. "Mac," he groaned, placing his hand on her lower back, holding her tight against him. She kissed her way down to his chest, placing her hands next to him so she could lift herself to sit astride him. Her hands went under his shirt and his hands went to her hips. She could feel how hard he had become from her ministrations.

A knock interrupted them.

"No, no, no…," Will complained.

Mac lay in front of him and said, "come in."

Jane opened the door and said, "I'm so sorry."

"What's up," Will asked.

"There are a couple of police detectives here to speak with both of you."

"The governor," Mac said.

"Probably. We'll be out as soon as we get dressed."

"I'll let them know," Jane said, closing their door behind her.

Will rested his head against the back of hers and put his arm around her waist, pulling her back against him.

She sat up, kissed him quickly and got out of bed. "Come on, get dressed."

"Mac," he whined.

"You know we have to talk to them."

"I know," he said sitting up. "I was enjoying staying in bed."

She smiled and sat next to him, placing her hand on his cheek, "Me, too, Billy. Trust me, I'd much rather be making out with you, but we've got to talk to these people."

"Damn. All right, get dressed."

They both quickly dressed and walked out to the kitchen to see two detectives sitting at the bar, drinking coffee.

"Good morning, detectives," Will said, "I'm Will McAvoy." Will held his hand out to shake both of their hands. "This is my Executive Producer, Mackenzie McHale." She shook their hands and offered to freshen up their coffee.

"We're fine, thanks," the first detective said. "We need to ask you some questions about your time with the Governor last night."

"Sure, what would you like to know," Mac asked.

"The first detective asked Mac, "did you arrange for the interview?"

"I did, I spoke with his press office yesterday morning to see if he was interested in either appearing or making a statement."

"Did he arrive alone," the second detective inquired.

"It was very odd," Will said. "He drove himself in a private car, no security and no press secretary, or even a staffer."

"We're going to need any additional footage."

"I'm sorry, we can't release any footage to you," Mac explained. "That will have to be subpoenaed and AWM's legal department will need to be involved. I can tell you that there wasn't any additional footage other than what was on the air."

"Ma'am," the first detective started.

"I'm sorry," Will interrupted, "we don't release footage without a court order."

"I'm sure you want to help any way possible," the first detective continued.

"Do you have any additional questions, detectives," Will asked shutting down the tactic.

"It won't look good," the second detective tried.

"Detective, this interview is over. If you need further information you will need to contact AWM's legal department and any information will go through them. Good luck with your investigation."

The two detectives got up and Will showed them to the door.

"What do you think that was about," Mac asked when he returned.

"I think the governor was under some type of investigation."

"I'll see if Don found anything and get Jim on it next week," Mac said.

"You hungry," Will asked as he opened the refrigerator.

"Yes," she said with a smile. "Any chance I can get you to make me an omelet," she asked and hugged him from behind.

"I could be persuaded," he teased and turned his head to kiss her. "Why don't you see who else is up and if they would like food."

"Did someone say food," Kate asked as she walked into the kitchen with Jane trailing behind.

"Are you guys hungry," Will asked.

They both just looked at him and he finally gave in, "okay, okay, I'll make you breakfast," he said smiling.

They all ended up helping with breakfast and then cleaning up. "I'm going to shower," Mac told Will.

"Okay," he said distractedly as he was catching up on baseball on ESPN.

Jane and Kate had disappeared from the kitchen area when Mac reappeared in yoga pants and an oversized sweatshirt. She was carrying her laptop and sat next to Will.

"Are you all caught up," she asked.

"For the moment. New games start in a couple of hours," he answered smiling at her. "I'm going to grab a quick shower, right back," he said and kissed her.

She opened her computer and saw there was a wi-fi signal, but it required a password. She walked to Jane's room and knocked on her door.

"Come in," she heard.

Mac opened the door and saw Jane packing up a box. "I'm sorry to bother you, but I wanted to know if I might borrow your wi-fi signal?"

"No problem. Actually the password is on the side of the refrigerator, I'll show you," Jane said.

"I don't want to interrupt, I can look," Mac offered.

"It's fine. I need a break."

"Everything all right?"

"You mean with the packing," Jane asked and Mac nodded. "I thought Will would have told you."

"Not if it was something you told him in confidence," Mac said.

"I'm moving. I've been offered a position at New York – Presbyterian."

"You're coming to New York," Mac asked, excitedly.

"I am. Will and I were discussing it yesterday. I wasn't sure how he'd react and if he'd be okay with us in the same city."

"He'd love it and so do I," Mac said, hugging her, "congratulations."

"Thank you. I'm excited about the move. Not the packing, mind you," she said, "that's why I'm trying to get a head start."

"Does Kate know?"

"I told her last night. She's excited for me."

"That's great. I'd love to show you around."

"Thanks and as much as Will wants to help, there are certain places only another woman will know about. Are you a shopper?"

"Most definitely," Mac answered enthusiastically.

"We are going to have a great time," Jane said. "Let's get you that password," she said leading Mac back to the kitchen.

Jane pulled a business card off that was hanging by a magnet and flipped it over to reveal the code, "here you go."

"Thanks."

Mac put in the passcode and handed the card back to Jane. After she'd placed the card back on the refrigerator she explained that she'd better get back to her packing and went back to her room.

Mac had muted the television and was typing quickly when Will returned wearing shorts and a long sleeve t-shirt, his hair still damp.

"Hey, feel better," she asked.

"I do," he answered and un-muted the television, and turned the volume down so he wouldn't disturb her.

"You can turn it up, it won't bother me," she offered.

"I will at game time, thanks. What are you working on," he asked as Jane came back to the kitchen.

"I'm looking at press releases."

Jane grabbed a soda and asked if they'd like anything. They both declined. She sat down with them and asked Will, "what game is being shown?"

"I think we are going to see Colorado and San Francisco."

Mac turned her laptop to Will and he quickly read what was on her screen. "Nice," he replied smiling.

"Are you working," Jane asked.

"Not really. I was looking for a story I knew would be out today and wanted to see how BBC covered it, would you like to see," she offered.

"Sure, tell me what I'm looking at," she replied taking the laptop. "What a distinguished looking man," she said.

"He is the new leader of the UK Delegation to the United Nations, and my father."

"Your father is an ambassador?"

"He is. He's moving back to New York next week."

"Has he been away long?"

"He's coming out of retirement for this post. My parent's home base is near Oxford. They've lived all over the world but always returned to Oxford. The last time he was posted in New York was about twenty years ago."

"You've lived in New York a while."

"I was born in New York."

"You're American?"

"I am."

"I had no idea."

"The accent throws everyone off," Mac said smiling.

Kate joined them to watch the baseball game and wanted to know if they'd like to go out to dinner at her friend's restaurant?

"What kind of food does he serve," Will asked.

"Italian, family style. It's really good."

"It is," Jane agreed. "I've eaten there a few times and I've always been impressed."

"Sounds good," Mac said.

"We'd love to go," Will added.

"Okay, I'll arrange it. Do you want a private room, would that be easier," Kate asked.

"I'm fine either way, thanks."
