A/N: So, thank you guys so much for all the reviews. They make me very happy. :)
So, the story is getting closer to the end. I'll probably have one or two chapters after this. And then it is fin. :(
However, I have two songfics waiting to be written. One is Criminal Intent and the other is Special Victims Unit. Both the songs are from Spring Awakening because I am tres lame. So, expect that soon. ANYWAY.
The beginning may seem a little confusing, but they are actually in two different places. They are saying pretty much the same things to both of them so I kept switching it back and forth.
/essay.
Enjoy!
Bobby was ushered by Mike into a corner of the cafeteria where no one was. Karla took Alex into the hallway, so they could be alone.
"What is this all about?" Alex asked suspiciously.
"Well, we just wanted to take you to your separate corners so we could talk to each of you privately." Karla tried to explain.
"Okay, what about?" Alex questioned.
"Well, Mike and I noticed something between you two, something interesting.
Alex looked at her willing her to continue.
"Well, it's nothing big, actually, it could be, but…"
"Well, there is no easy way to say this." Mike told Bobby. "Karla and I saw how you and Alex look at each other. We think, well, we think you both are in love."
"In… in… what?" Alex said slowly.
"You heard me." Karla said. "And now that we know you're partners…"
"…It makes so much more sense. You spend all your time together, and you don't really see anyone else." Mike continued.
"But… there are regulations. We aren't allowed to love each other." Bobby replied.
"Oh, I doubt it. They never follow those rules, anyway. And even if they do, I'm sure your superior officers love you so much they wouldn't care." Karla retorted.
"Well, even if they did turn a blind eye… I… Bobby doesn't love me, and even if he did he wouldn't allow himself to." Alex said slowly.
"Don't kid yourself, man. She's smitten over you. Can't you see the way she looks at you? Hasn't she done amazing things for you to show how much she cares?" Mike asked.
Alex thought for a moment about everything they've been through lately. "I guess."
"There you go. You're started to come to your senses." Mike said. "Now, do you realize that Alex loves you?"
"Yes." Bobby said quietly.
"Now, do you realize that Bobby loves you?" Karla asked.
"Yeah." Alex said looking at the floor.
"And you realize that you love her." Mike asked.
"Yeah." Bobby said with a little more confidence.
"And you realize that you love him now, right?" Karla asked.
"Yes." Alex said looking up.
"Then go and tell them."
"Okay." They both said with determination in their eyes. They both then left Karla and Mike and went off to find the other.
They met up near a table where Lewis was having another drink.
"Uh, can we go to somewhere a little more private?" Bobby asked.
"Actually I was going to ask the same thing." Alex said not really looking him in the eye.
They decided to take a walk around the school outside. They got to a gazebo in the back and decided to sit down.
They both went to go say something at the same time and both stopped. Alex gestured for Bobby to go and he started hesitantly.
"Mike said something to me that made me start to think." Bobby started.
"Same here, with Karla." Alex said quickly.
"He… uh… made me notice some things about myself." Bobby said slowly.
"So did Karla. I think we got the same speech." Alex said looking up hopefully.
"I think we did too. But now we really have to say it." Bobby told her.
"Yeah." Alex replied.
They both paused for a moment. "I love you." They said at the same time. Relief flooded both their faces.
Bobby took hold of her hands. "Alex, I have loved you for so long I don't even remember when it started. It's been so gradual, but so emotional. You have helped me so much these past few years. I don't know what I would have done if it wasn't for you. I love you."
"Awwe, Bobby." She cupped his cheek. "I have been the same way. I don't think you understand how much you have helped me either. I would not have been able to come back to work without you. I love you so much." Alex told him.
They leaned in for a sweet, tender kiss. After a moment they heard clapping. They pulled apart slowly and looked around. Mike, Karla, Lewis, Drew and a few other people were standing a little bit away watching them. Alex and Bobby's faces instantly turned red.
"Don't worry about it guys. We just wanted to make sure you actually told each other." Mike said.
"And we wanted to witness the first real kiss between Alex Eames and Bobby Goren." Karla said smiling.
Bobby looked at Lewis and gave him a look. Alex saw this and looked at him as well.
"Lewis, I'm not sure if I should slap you or hug you." Alex told him.
"Well then, I suppose I shouldn't tell you that I wasn't really drunk." Lewis said matter of factly.
"What?!" Bobby and Alex said at the same time standing up.
"Mike and Karla knew I knew something, so they asked me to tell. Besides, I've seen you together for nearly seven years. You deserve to be together." Lewis told them. Bobby wrapped his arm around Alex's shoulder and Alex put her hand around Bobby's waist.
Karla let out a small squeal. Everyone looked at her. "Sorry, I'm just really happy everything worked out." She said.
Everyone profusely agreed with her.
"The party has pretty much died down inside, and I'm beat. I have to at work tomorrow. I'm going to hit the way." Drew said.
"I suppose I'd better do the same." Lewis added.
"Everyone else is headed out, so I guess we'll go too." Mike said.
"We'll let you enjoy each other's company." Karla said. They then walked off.
"I guess we should go too." Alex said.
"Back to the room?" Bobby asked.
"Let's go." Alex replied.
A/N: I'm sorry for the semi short chapter. But it was calk full of fluffy goodness. . So, I guess that's okay. XD
