For the Deny/Denial Challenge:
It all started with a handshake. Instead of awkwardness, each found sparks. He was floored. She laughed it off, thinking herself crazy.
But then their fingers would brush each morning with the passing of coffee cups. Hearts would leap at the contact.
And they shared take-out when working late. Sometimes they'd sit at opposite ends of the table. But more often than not, they'd be close enough to brush shoulders when a case-breaking revelation would hit.
It all ended with a dance. Their eyes and bodies met. Then a smile and a kiss. They couldn't deny it any longer. They were in love.
