Disclamer: i own nothing except my imagination.

A/N: So I don't usually update so quickly but I think that yesterday's episode that was filled with Burzek scenes gave me some feels and it jusst wrote itself. Enjoy

Adam had drifted off to sleep in Kim's lap while she stroked through his hair and she was happy to have this quiet moment with him. She watched him as he slept, an arm on his stomach and the other one behind his head. Kim didn't mind the extra weight that that position gave her but it made her mind and her heart run at a mile a minute. She had told Adam that she wasn't giving up on them and that she was willing to take it slow to make it back to him but watching him like that, it made her want it all. She wanted the quiet mornings in bed with his body wrapped in his arms, she wanted the passion of the sex that she knew was always mind blowing and she wanted the chaos of trying to navigate through life with him. Having him with her since that fateful night only made her resolve stronger. She knew that it wouldn't be smooth sailing in the following weeks knowing Adam still had a lot of grief to work through but she was willing to do it all with him. She ended up drifting off to sleep herself, her head hanging back against the back of the couch.

Adam stirred and shifted on the couch when he realized where he was. His head was still sitting in Kim's lap but he found her sound asleep. He slowly rolled over and stood so he wouldn't wake her. He contemplated draping a blanket over her but he changed his mind, knowing her muscles would be all cramped up by being in that position. He decided to scoop her up gently and brought her back to her own room. He lowered her on the top of the bed and she rolled to the side, facing him.

"Stay with me." She mumbled.

"I'll be right back." The last time she had asked him the same thing he had refused, knowing that they weren't there just yet but now, all he wanted was to hold her in his arms. HE grabbed the throw from the couch and returned to her room where he laid down next to her and placed the blanket over the both of them. He wrapped her in his arms and drifted off to sleep with her scent invading his senses.

When Kim woke up next and it was now dark outside She felt the weight of his arms around her and she smiled. Her back was tucked into his strong chest and she turned around in his arms so she could face him and study him while he slept. He seemed relaxed in his sleep compared to the last few says and she was glad for that. When they first started dating, Adam had barely any fuss on his face but now, the three day fuss that adorned his face made her heart skip a beat. She always found him more handsome with it as opposed to without it. He had changed his haircut a bit in the few weeks before his father past, having shaved it shorter to the side and keeping longer on top and swept to the side. She thought it suited him more this way even though he always looked good in her eyes. She ran her hand gently under his shirt as to not startle him awake.

"Evening." His voice filled with sleep as he pulled her closer to him.

"Hey. Sorry I woke you." She saw Adam suck in a breath as she moved her hand higher up his shirt.

"Kim, what are you doing?" His breath was ragged. Her hands were setting his body on fire and he used all his restraint not to pin her under him and have his way with her.

"I've been missing out." She licked her lips, Adam's eyes still closed. "I was stupid." Her lips were so close to his and it took everything in her not to press hers to his and claim him as hers but they needed to take it slow.

"No, I was the stupid one." He finally opened his eye and looked at her. "I didn't fight for you and I let you get away."

"Do you want to fight now?" She whispered, afraid to find out his answer.

"With everything I have." He finally claimed her lips in a soft kiss. It lasted a few seconds but it was the new beginning they were both craving. "And I'm going to do it right this time,

I promise." He ran his fingers against her arms as he moved up and moved a strand of hair behind her ear, cupping her cheek as he did.

"How are we going to make this work?"

"We have a lot of things to talk about." And talk they did. They talked about what came next concerning his father's estate, they talked about work and how they were going to tell their friends about them and they talked about how they wanted their next few days would go. They spent most of the night in bed until the call of food became too big and Adam stepped out of the bed, refusing to let Kim help her and told her he'd return in just a little bit. As promised, he returned about ten minutes later with sandwiches, Kim's fridge practically empty. "We're going to have to go grocery shopping at some point, that fridge is empty.

"We?" She cocked an eyebrow.

"Yeah, could be fun." They ate in light conversation, Kim laughing when Adam aloud himself to tell her a story about his dad when he was a kid. She let him set the pace when it came to talking about his father, not wanting to push him too much if he wasn't ready. "I was thinking about going to see Voight tomorrow." He finally said after a few minutes of silence.

"Are you sure about it? I'm sure he would understand if you weren't ready." She ran her hand against her leg.

"I think I'm ready. I just want to get back even if he says it's just for paperwork."

"I'll be right beside you, I promise." He nodded and smiled. He wanted to get his life back and going back to Intelligence was another step in that direction. Adam could hear the faint sounds of his phone, letting him know that people were either calling or texting him but he wasn't in the mood just yet to answer to any of them. He was good in his Kim bubble and he wanted to stay in it a little while longer. After some more arguing over clearing the food, Adam brought the dishes in the kitchen and washed everything before returning to her. He found her propped op on her elbow as she looked at her phone.

"You should look at your messages, everyone is worried about you." She showed him her phone that was blowing up with messages.

"I'll just be a minute darling." He leaned down and kissed her before he took his own phone and skimmed through the messages and sent one to Kevin, asking to tell everyone that he is fine and that he'd see all of them in the morning.

"You do know that we won't be able to hide this for too long."

"Who says I want to hide it? Last time we did that it blew up in our face. I said it that I want to make it right and I meant it."

"So what, we yell it from the roof top?" She giggled, pulling him down by his shirt and kissing him.

"No." He finally said when he managed to catch his breath. "We're taking it slow and out in the open and they find out when they do. That ok with you?"

"Perfect." She smiled at him and she started pulling his shirt over his head. They stripped each other down of their clothes and ended up cuddled in her bed.

"You have no idea how much I want you right now." He rubbed his nose against hers.

"What's stopping you?" She tangled her legs with his.

"Everything. I just want to enjoy it."

"Hold me then." They eventually fell back asleep for the night, wrapped up in each other.

Adam was the first one up and he did as little noise as possible so she could sleep a bit longer. Voight had aloud her to come in later so he got in the shower and changed before going to wake her up. He sat on the side of the bed and shook her gently.

"Wake up sleeping beauty."

"Already morning?" She whined, pulling the blanket high over her head.

"Yeah. I let you sleep while I showered but it's already nine. I figured you'd want to go in." She grumbled something he could quite catch and she pushed violently the covers and headed for her bathroom, taking her clothes with her. It took about twenty minutes for her to return fully dressed, shaking her hair out of the high bun she was sporting. "Ready?" He questioned as he pushed a cup of coffee her way.

"Yeah. Wanna grab breakfast on the way?"

"Sounds about right." They left as soon as Kim finished her coffee and they took his car to make it to the district.

"You ready?"

"Yeah, hopefully Voight won't shut me down completely." He took his usual spot in the back and and they made it through the front. Kim slipped her fingers through his for support and they made it up the stairs, coming face to face with Platt.

"Boy wonder, Burgess." She peered over the desk, seeing their hands linked. "Something going on that II should know?" She looked at both in turn.

"Maybe." Adam simply said with a smirk and they both went up the stairs. The bullpen was empty except for Antonio and Voight that were both in his office. Voight was the first to see them approach and the two holding hands didn't go un-noticed.

"What can I do for you Adam?" He motioned for the two to enter. Kim tried to hang back but Adam kept a firm grip on her hand, forcing her to make inside the small space.

"I know that we talked about this a few days back and Kim and I spent a lot of time talking and I think I'm ready to come back Sarge. Just tell what I need to do to get back up here." Adam didn't miss the look Voight and Antonio.

"Trudy needs some extra guys on the beat for the next couple of shifts. How about you and Antonio give her a hand down there and you can come back up?" Of course that wasn't what Adam wanted to hear but he was willing to do whatever it took.

"Sure Sarge, anything."

"And the two of you?" He pointed between the two, their hands still linked together.

"It won't be a problem Sarge." They both promised. No matter the nature of their relationship, they were good together.

"Alright, there's some paperwork waiting for you on your desk in the meantime." Adam nodded and left the office, heading for his own desk. Voight asked Kim to hang around a little bit longer, making her close the door. "How is he, really?"

"After the funeral and up until now, it's been good actually. I see the old Adam. I know there's going to be a few hard choices left to make where his dad's house is concerned but I'm not going to let him do it alone."

"Alright. Thanks for taking care of him Kim."

"I think it's safe to say that we're taking care of each other at this point." She smiled and left the office, some paperwork of her own to get done until they got their next case. Atwater, Halstead and Upton were at their desk by the time she left the office. She and Kevin exchanged a glance but didn't say a word. It would be for another time and as the day went, they caught a small case, Adam staying behind doing the research to help them solve it. When all was said and done, they ended up at Molly's for a drink. His arm was draped over Kim's shoulder and they finally enjoyed a normal evening with their friends. Everyone was happy for them, Kevin pulling him into a bear hug when they had walked inside together, Adam's hand on the small of her back.

They returned to her place around ten and tumbled into bed, the two exhausted. Adam was more than ready to return to normal and tomorrow was going to be the first day of his new normal, one without his father but one with Kim at his side.

A/N: Ok so I know I said that Burzek were supposed to get back together last chapter but it seemed more fitting to do it in this one so I could give them their own time instead of jamming it with ssomething else. I really hope you guys like this one and please leave a review, I wanna know if I did it right - Sarra
