A/N: Okay here you go, the chapter you have all been waiting for. Fluff. LOL I also have a very unexpected surprise for you all. I don't think anyone saw this coming... well, except for our Horatio, maybe. This chapter is NC 17- I hope you all enjoy it. Here we go...

The ride home was spent in quiet contemplative thought after truly experiencing the life affirming power that the morning sunrise had to offer. Horatio drove, taking the time to decompress. Calleigh rested her head back thinking about the future, their future. She exhaled softly pulling him from his reverie. He looked over at her speaking quietly.
"Sweetheart, everything okay?"
Her eyes snapped open and she nodded. "Yes, fine. Just thinking about what Joe said that's all. Sometimes we get so caught up in life, we don't take the time to really enjoy it, ya know?"
He smiled looking over at her. "I do. I know. Our jobs are demanding, and dealing with death everyday, well it can..."
"Wear on us." She finished for him.
He turned to her with a knowing smile nodding. She was getting to know him so well. The closeness, the affection and all the love, it felt wonderful. He slid his right hand over onto her thigh affectionately. She covered his hand with hers and squeezed lightly whispering, "I want to appreciate life more with you, Horatio."
He turned to her taken aback hearing something different in her tone. He nodded cautiously gazing into those beautiful eyes that he loved so much it hurt. Her comment kept replaying in his mind. Did he really hear what she was saying? Was this an answer to a question he's patiently been waiting for? There was hope in her voice and the promise of something new but was he jumping ahead here, was he interpreting the situation correctly? He didn't want to ask pressuring her after the emotional rollercoaster ride of the past two days so he remained quiet listening.
He pulled into his driveway and shut the engine off.
She squeezed his hand again and he turned toward her, taking in her heart stopping beautiful green eyes.
"I love you, Horatio," she said in such a heartfelt tone. Her eyes gleamed as her love radiated to him.
He stared overwhelmed by her words. He reached for her hands and held them. "I love you too, sweetheart." He lifted them to his lips and kissed them softly, feeling their warmth on his face.
Calleigh's smile widened with his affection. She sighed, "I've been thinking a lot lately and well… what would you say if I wanted to take you up on that offer of yours handsome?"
Horatio's heart skipped a beat. 'Here we go.'
His brows arched, his lips curved up instantly with his eyes crinkling at the corners and he gave her a gorgeous Horatio smile. "Well… I would say…" he tenderly pressed his lips to her hands and kissed them softly again and again, speaking slowly, "I would say, that I'm about to become a very lucky man."
She chuckled and shook her head. "Does that mean you already know what I'm thinking?"
"Mmm, I sure hope so love," he chuckled, pulling her even closer, ecstatic, knowing she was talking about moving in with him. He felt a burst of adrenaline surge through his veins, energizing him. His heart was racing in his chest making him feel so alive and full of life.
She laughed, elated. He wrapped an arm around her dragging her over to him. "How is it that you can read my mind so easily handsome?" she asked, when his lips found her soft neck and nuzzled gently.
"Mmmm, the same way you can read mine beautiful," he replied in his velvety soft tone. His tongue sliding up her jawline to her luscious lips making her shiver. He felt exhilarated and kissed her softly, barely brushing his lips over hers, humming his pleasure. "Mmmm… I love how you smell."
Calleigh's eyes slowly closed in pleasure, her body still aroused, her mind still on the rude interruption they had in the elevator and his voice… that whisky tone just melted her. Her fingers sensually rolled leisurely through his hair. His gentle touch and gritty voice undoing her, setting off shockwaves of hot pleasure, making her tingle all over. She looked into his captivating blue eyes becoming mesmerized, his handsome face, his rumpled hair and that very sexy stubble she adored on him. His rugged and tired appearance overpowered her, making her wild with desire for him. She wanted him right here, right now. Her eyes tightened in thought for a second as she bit down on her lower lip trying to suppress a moan. 'If he only knew what I wanted to do to him.'
"C'mon handsome, you're exhausted, and I have just the thing for you," she smiled seductively backing off.
His brows arched and he smiled. "Mmm, sounds wonderful," he moaned low, not wanting to release her yet, still nuzzling all along her neck and murmuring softly in her ear.
She sighed feeling his luscious lips and put her hand on his chest stopping him. She was ready to combust and had to slow things down before she ripped his clothes off right there in the Hummer, in broad daylight. She exhaled heavily, "And it will feel even better I promise," she laughed, trying to break away, sliding back over to the passenger seat away from him.
His deep rumbling hum flowed over her like music to her ears exciting her even more. The wicked smile on his face deliberate, letting her know this wasn't over yet. He watched her slip out of the Hummer with a giggle and quickly followed her with a groan. 'Far from over,' he thought with a sly grin.

Horatio leaned his forearms on the wet wall in front of him surrendering to the steam and warmth of the hot shower. His head hanging down letting the streams of water do their magic on his tired aching back and neck muscles. He closed his eyes in thought just letting the water soothe and relax his weary body. 'She really wants to move in with me.'
Calleigh grinned mischievously. The sexual tension between the two of them since the elevator and SUV was almost unbearable. She quietly climbed into the shower behind him. Her hands slid effortlessly around him triggering his eyes to gradually open. He tried to turn but she held him steady and he chuckled looking back over his shoulder at her.
She hugged him close crushing her breasts to his back and leaned in near his ear. "You're exhausted and I thought a nice shower massage would help," she said, beginning to massage his knotted shoulder blades and neck muscles. He moaned deeply and let his head drop forward once again relaxing under her soothing touch. He leaned his hands back on the wall in front of him feeling her hands and fingers slide against his wet skin, beginning to work on his achy muscles. His thoughts drifting with the steam, he felt himself swell and tighten thinking of how much he wanted her hand on one very hard muscle in particular.
She grabbed the scented soap and lathered the silk sponge gently sliding it all along his upper back and shoulders. The warm invigorating vanilla fragrance, rousing his senses, his cravings, reminding him of her and all her beauty.
She slid it down his back and lower to his rear making his head snap up. She chuckled and slowly slid it up and around to his waist, then his abs and chest making generous lathering circles, sensually rubbing her body against his back creating a soft blissful friction. Her breasts crushed against his back and her hard nipples rubbed against him. He closed his eyes again and sighed enjoying the moment. Her touch was very relaxing yet at the same time so arousing that he wanted to turn and pounce. His patience was slipping by the second.
A soft rumble of desire filled his chest when her hand glided lower to his abs and down into his red treasure trail. He groaned and his jaw tightened when her soft hand wrapped around his slick manhood that stood proudly at attention.
She stroked ever so slowly.
His patience snapped.
He growled and turned but she already knew, leaning up pressing her lips to his in a hot, hungry kiss. Her need was just as strong as his. Their bodies crushed together trapping his rigid manhood against her stomach. Calleigh moaned feeling his hardness along with tiny electric shocks coursing throughout her body as his hands explored her slickened skin. The kiss softened and his hand found hers with the soapy sponge. He took it and playfully began trailing soap suds all over her soft skin while his lips continued their assault on her body. He nuzzled and teased, tasting every inch of her, his tongue drawing small circles around her nipples but never touching her peaking buds.
She moaned biting down on her lip, getting caught up in her own game once again. Her pulse quickened, desire rising feverishly as she held him to her breast feeling pure unadulterated bliss.
He moaned low against her chest letting the sponge drop to the floor, pulling her closer, tangling his hand into her blond wet hair and crushed his lips to hers in a searing tongue kiss. With a low growl he turned and submerged the two of them directly under the shower head, still kissing, as the hot water sprayed over their smoldering bodies washing the soap away. He backed her up against the wall and without warning lowered his head, taking her right breast back into his mouth.
"Oh god, Horatio!" She cried, feeling his lips close around her stiff nipple and his tongue lightly flick the taut bud.
"Mmmmm," his hum vibrated against her, rippling, and flowing through every fiber of her being. Her hands gripped his wet hair and held him there. Her breath quickened and her head lolled back against the tiles in delight.
His right hand descending, caressing her silky curves, progressively sliding down her smooth stomach, gliding over her navel, and down into her golden curls. His fingers gently caressing, circling, finding warm silkiness awaiting him, he groaned against her breast and slowly slid his finger inside her warmth.
"Oh god!" she gasp panting, grabbing onto his wet hair, "Wait… Wait..."
His lips immediately left her breast and he found her yearning eyes. His voice husky with desire, rasping, "Wait? You want me to… wait?" He asked in disbelief feeling raw hunger pull at his very core. His finger still in her warmth, moving, sliding, and making it incredibly hard for her to form any kind of coherent words.
A soft moan rolled off her lips, and then her eyes closed in hesitation feeling the warm curls of pleasure building inside her. She bit down on her lip and nodded breathlessly, "Yes-- wait. Give me-- five--minutes--and meet me-- in bed."
He gave her a wary look. He leaned in to kiss her softly, slowly, letting his hand slide away from her warm center. She moaned into his lips and his voice rumbled seductively in her ear, "You sure?"
'Oh, god, no I'm not!' She thought, hearing that voice, that sensual whisky tone that drove her wild. She eventually nodded biting down on her lip staring into his lustful blue eyes. "Mm-hmm, I had— have a plan," she blinked and shook her head trying to find some semblance of control.
He smiled. "Mmmmm," his sexy hum vibrated in the shower stall, bouncing off the walls and filling her ears. She felt it flowing over her, hypnotizing her, dancing along her skin as tiny pinpricks spiraled down her body all coiling right at her warm center sending waves of pleasure through her.
He continued in that sensual husky tone, "That's what you said when you stepped into the shower with me." His hand cupped the back of her head and he leaned in for a gentle kiss, seducing her with his warm velvety tongue. Her arms naturally wrapped around his neck and her eyes drifted close, enjoying the softness of his lips and tongue, becoming lost once again. His hands caressed her curves sliding down to her rear as he pressed her directly against his hardness.
Calleigh's eyes shot open at him. "Stop… you're seducing me," she panted, pushing him back again with her hand on his wet chest. "I promise you'll like my plan, okay?" She said sweetly, looking down at his engorged hardness letting her fingers seductively slide down his chest right into his red treasure trial. She smiled with an arched brow never taking her eyes off his jutting manhood. "Five minutes," she repeated, quickly stepping out of the steamy shower stall.
Horatio exhaled heavily shaking his head in disbelief. That was the second time he was denied today, he groaned and submerged himself under the hot water once again. "I won't last five more seconds like this," he groaned, looking down at his still very stiff member. He suddenly grinned and shut the water getting out.
Calleigh towel dried her hair and closed the bedroom blinds. She slipped on a short black silk robe and proceeded to light candles all around the bedroom creating a light soothing effect. She smiled and closed her eyes taking in the vanilla candle scent flowing through the air. She put a fresh towel and some scented oil on the night table beside the bed. Then bent and pulled down the covers closing her eyes again to take in the wonderful fragrance of the scented candles flowing throughout the room.
Horatio smiled watching her, leaning on the doorframe with just a towel around his waist. His eyes slid up the back of her thighs and stopped on target at her beautifully shaped derriere. All of her curves in clear view as she bent over the bed and more of her backside was revealed.
His brows arched with a lopsided grin. Without a sound he walked up behind her, his right hand smoothly glided up the back of her thigh causing her to jump.
"Good God, Horatio!" She gasped.
He hung onto her with his left hand knowing she would try to flee. He chuckled, "Sorry, I couldn't resist your body and your… present position. I think you were clearly trying to provoke me," he said, in his velvety soft tone sliding his right hand along her bare thigh and backside exaggerating his point.
She chuckled relaxing, leaning back against his body with a soft moan. "Okay you had your fun handsome. Now lay down, I want to have mine and give you a nice relaxing massage like I promised."
His eyes widened and he looked over to the nightstand seeing the oil and towel. He grinned, leaning in closer to her ear nuzzling and whispering in a very sexy tone, "Forget the massage, beautiful. I can think of something else I need much more right now." He pressed his hips against her rear emphasizing his point.
Calleigh gasped, first feeling how hard he was and then feeling his right hand slide around her hip to her warm wet center.
"But, but I-- Oh god," she moaned in a heavy breath, as his expert fingers slid languorously in her warm silkiness. He felt her swollen bud and groaned low pressing himself against her backside again, snaking his left hand around to untie her sash. He cupped her left breast gently and purposely ran his thumb over her peaking nipple.
"Ohh…" she sighed softly, melting right back against him, "I-- wanted— to—" Her words lost as all coherent thought went right out the window.
With a growl he pressed his hips against her moving her forward onto the bed. She fell forward bracing herself with her hands as he leaned over her breathing his hot breath on her neck. "God I have wanted you all night. I don't think I can't wait another second," he groaned letting his towel fall.
"Yes, I can see that," she chuckled finding herself on her hands and knees on the bed with him bent over her. She suddenly whimpered as he slid his hand away from her warm wetness standing back up.
Her eyes suddenly widened and she let out a shriek when his hands quickly turned her flat on her back. Her eyes still wide on him in disbelief at the speed and preciseness of his movement.
He gave her a devious smile and seductively licked his lips. He gently leaned over her body again, hovering, placing his hands on each side of her head on the bed. He held her emerald eyes for a moment, and then leaned down to delicately kiss her lips. He backed off and held her sparkling eyes for a moment longer taking in all her beauty.
She whispered up to him. Her left hand caressing and gliding over his back and down his side, "I wanted to relax you, not vice versa."
He gave her a sexy smile and leisurely began trailing hot kisses down her neck. His voice dripping with desire as he murmured against her skin, "Mmm-hmm… you are relaxing me, more than you know. Just let me have my way with you and I promise we will both be sleeping with the angels."
Calleigh chuckled and suddenly moaned feeling his soft lips capture her taut nipple. "Uh-huhhh," her soft moan long and drawn out gratified. Her fingers sliding into his damp hair as her back arched and her head pressed down harder into the mattress.
He backed off holding her burning eyes, letting his hands slide across her silky skin, brushing her robe off her shoulders leaving her bare to his eyes. Slowly running his hands teasingly over her breast and down her quivering stomach to let his fingers linger on her hips. His lustful eyes slid back up to hers as he held her heated gaze for a moment. He whispered, "Unity," kneeling at the edge of the bed, kissing her tattoo as he eased her thighs apart and lowered his mouth to her warm soft center.
"Oh my God," she gasped, closing her eyes feeling so much pleasure. Warm softness, growing wetness, constant continual pressure building, circling, more and more as her whole body began to tingle and shake on the verge. His fingers lightly sliding along the inside of her thighs building her up even more.
"Ohhh," she moaned heavily. Already feeling herself on the edge ready to soar. Her hands fisted the sheets as her breathing increased.
"Mmmm," his moan of pleasure vibrated against her center reaching her depths. She bit down on her lower lip gripping onto his hair. Her legs began trembling around him and her moans grew louder. He kept his steady pace knowing she was close. Knowing her signs and signals as her head swayed from side to side with her squirming body.
"Oh god… Ohhh god!" Her words dragged out intentionally with her heavy breathing.
His fingers joined his tongue as Calleigh thrashed and gasped for breath moaning loudly, deeply. Her hips began moving in rhythm against him as she gave into all the pleasure coursing through her body. He knew she was right there and kept up his relentless pace using his tongue in slow steady swipes. His fingers curled working on her pleasure point feeling her legs shake all around him. He felt her clench around his fingers and he quickly wrapped his lips around her begging jewel, suckling softly.
Oh Ohh Ohhhh!!!" Her world exploded in a kaleidoscope of colors.
Her back arched as she cried out again and again, "Horatio! Oooooo! She panted exploding, as her whole body stiffened and tensed under him. Her face, neck, and chest all blushed bright red. Her breast swayed with her erratic breathing and she shook uncontrollably.
He struggled for control hanging onto her legs as she thrashed and squirmed all around him. Her breathing ragged as she gasped and grabbed onto the sheets pulling on them one second and pulling on his hair the next. He gradually slowed his pace, nuzzling and kissing softly, sliding over to her tattoo, feeling her body shake and quiver under him.
Her whole body gradually went limp with a heavy moan. Her hands slid down his face and onto the bed, her legs finally relaxing, with small tremors still fading. She sighed her pleasure and moaned quietly again and again. His lustful eyes found hers when he lifted his head satisfied by her reaction.
Calleigh exhaled thickly, "What-- you do-- to me. Unhh-- god." She moaned breathlessly. "You're incredible! She rasped, letting her head drop back down onto the bed.
He gave her a gorgeous smile and licked his lips wiggling his brows to her. "Mmmm, and vice versa beautiful," he said, in a thick husky tone looking over her beautiful blushing body.
Calleigh rose up on her elbows watching him. He lowered his head again and kissed all around her tattoo whispering, "Unity," again and again. She chuckled, squirming, and quickly rolled over onto her stomach attempting to get away from him. He grinned at her position and grabbed onto her leg stopping her as she gasped wide eyed, suddenly being dragged backward against him. She felt the heat from his rigidly hard length press up against her rear.
"Mmmm," he growled deeply at the contact. Running both hands down the curve of her silky soft back then to her waist, her soft hips and eventually over her beautiful derriere, lingering. His eyes filled with burning desire taking her exquisiteness in as she turned looking over her shoulder at him. She suddenly smirked and backed up more pressing her rear right against his engorged length.
A low growl emanated from deep within his throat, his eyes closed at the pleasurable sensation, his hands automatically sliding along her rear feeling her silky smooth softness. He murmured completely lost in passion, "You have the most beautiful ass."
"Mmmm," Calleigh moaned, lost herself in all the sensation he was causing. His hands were hypnotizing her, sliding, faintly caressing along her body and rear.
He suddenly blinked realizing he said that out loud and groaned, unable to hold off anymore. He rocked against her, his full length sliding along her silky rear. He moaned, and quickly adjusted moving in closer feeling himself come into contact with her warm silkiness.
His jaw clenched and he moaned low, "Sweetheart, I won't be able to hold back this way."
Calleigh pressed back into him even harder. His voice oozing sensuality, hypnotizing her as his caressing hands sent shockwaves of pleasure coursing throughout her body. She moaned heavily, "Holding back… is the last thing I want you to do. You already have me close again." She reached her hand back pulling on his hip making sure he got her message loud and clear. "I need you…please," she moaned melodiously, sliding her hand along his muscular thigh in a long inviting caress. Her words and lustful tone completely undid him.
"Yes," he rasped, "Yes." Feeling his heart banging against his chest already knowing he would not last long.
He exhaled effortlessly and closed his eyes using his sense of touch, running his hands again from her soft shoulders down her curving back, lower to her waist, and then smooth rear. His fingers curled lovingly about her hips as he increasingly rocked forward, sliding his engorged length between her thighs, pressing himself inside her warm silky softness. He gasped and stilled his face tight with concentration, searching for control, trying not to move, as he enjoyed every sensation of being completely immersed in her. Two melding into one.
Calleigh moaned feeling him fill her and began to rock gently causing him to go deeper making them both gasp their pleasure.
"Uhhh," his fingers tightened on her hips as he accepted her rhythm and joined her in their erotic dance. Their bodies rocked together. Deep, deeper, until he was completely buried within her.
"So good-- don't-- stop," she panted, feeling another orgasm quickly approaching.
Her words, her raspy tone, making him clench his jaw as he hung onto her hips. "Uhh, god, sweetheart…" He let his right hand slide around her hip to her wet center knowing how close they both were. His fingers began sliding along her slick center as he began to thrust with abandon feeling himself ready to burst.
"Oh god, Horatio!" Calleigh cried out feeling him move in and out while his fingers strummed over her wet tingling nub. She tensed and her breath caught, "Horatio…I'm gonna….Ohhhhhh!" She cried out as her climax tore through her and her whole body began to shake and pulse. Both her hands clenched the sheets in front of her gripping them tightly as she panted out of control. "Ohhh, Ohhh…God!"
Her head dropped down to the bed and her backside arched up even more to him. She moaned again and again, feeling a continuing wave of pleasure coursing through her. He felt her explode; her liquid fire soaking and surrounding his shaft, squeezing and contracting around him non-stop making him clench his jaw.
"Yes, Uhh, Uhhh!" He groaned heavily and shook off an approaching wave. His hands tightened on her hips as he watched himself slide smoothly in and out, again and again. His length soaked from their lovemaking, glistening in the candlelight room being surrounded with more and more of her liquid fire each time he submerged himself. He growled and grunted as he pushed harder feeling her continuously clench and contract all around him.
His breathing heavy, ragged. He bent forward over her, cupping her soft breast, rolling her nipple with his fingers, while his hips undulated against her rear. His left hand released her breast, entwining, on top of her hand that was gripping the sheets, interlocking his fingers with hers on the bed, his hot breath on her back and neck, kissing and gasping her name, "Calleigh-- Uh!, Uhh, god, sweetheart… Uhhh… Calleighh… Ugghhhhhhh! He groaned long and deep into her hair, panting against her back and neck as he exploded deeply inside of her. He wrapped her tightly in his right arm as he stood buried deeply in her warm center, staying as close as possible, feeling her warm soft skin under him, around him, all over him. Her body shook as he filled her up with his pulsing love. His stomach and chest heaving against her back, as he tried to catch his breath and still hold them both up.
Calleigh exhaled heavy trying to breathe and suddenly let her body drop flat on the bed exhausted. She closed her eyes reveling in the incredible lovemaking session they just had. Horatio chuckled and gently slid his arm out from under her. She felt his soft lips lingering along her back as he gave her light butterfly kisses. It only took seconds for him to join her when he let his own body rest against her back careful of his weight. He shifted to the side just a bit wanting to stay close, their left hands and fingers stilled joined as he pulled her closer still giving her warm tender kisses all along her back and shoulders.
She chuckled turning her head towards him, "You're never going to crush me you know."
"Beautiful, I don't want to take any chances," he said breathlessly.
"My god Horatio, where do you get your energy?"
He chuckled, "From you beautiful," he kissed her back one last time mumbling, "From you." He gently rolled off her as she moaned in disappointment from the loss of contact.
She sighed completely exhausted and contented. "You are incredible. I've never experienced such emotions. Each time we make love it feels more wonderful than the last."
"I agree," He smiled shyly. "It was the build up, trust me. My energy this time… was not where I wished it to be. I wish I could have lasted a lot longer for you."
She chuckled, "You're crazy! I can hardly move right now!" She leaned over and kissed his cheek playfully running her hand over his rear. "Okay, let's go handsome, get up there and let's get some sleep." She pointed to the top of the bed.
He chuckled still a bit breathless, "Yes, ma'am."
They both crawled to the top of the bed chuckling. Horatio laid flat on his back with a groan as Calleigh snuggled in close. He exhaled feeling much better at the moment and knew it was all because of her. Calleigh's decision to move in with him, and the promise of a future together, the promise of hope. He wrapped his arm around her protectively and she automatically slid her leg around his moving in closer with a very contented sigh.
"Thank you, sweetheart," he whispered.
She lifted her head off his shoulder. "For what?"
"For saying yes, for moving in with me, for making me a very happy man." He chuckled, "And For letting me have my way with you today."
Calleigh chuckled back, "Handsome, you can have your way with me when ever you want." She said, twirling her finger playfully in his red chest hair.
"Mmm, that sounds very… promising," he whispered kissing her forehead.
Calleigh grinned. "Handsome, tomorrow is always full of promise as is today. Now go to sleep and maybe I'll have my way with you later."
He chuckled as she settled against him relaxing again with her soft subtle moans. He smiled thinking of her words to him, 'I want to appreciate life more with you, Horatio.' His smile widened and he closed his eyes thinking, 'I want to appreciate you for the rest of my life sweetheart. Forever'
Her soft moans soon faded and their breathing evened out. All was quiet as they both fell asleep holding one another closely. His mind was more at ease brought about by her beautiful words giving him so much hope and promise for a future together. A life full of love and happiness, full of promise for the both of them and who knows maybe even children. Horatio's slumber was undisturbed as only good thoughts and images flowed through his mind thinking of 'Forever.'
TBC…
Okay I am listening... and I know it's... very HOT in here! LOL
So are you happy for Horatio and Calleigh now? Did you expect it or were you surprised?
