"Alright guys, lets get back to it! We're almost done!" Holly said as everyone groaned.
All of the heavy items had been brought in and put in their appropriate places and almost all of the boxes were now inside.
Holly had labeled all of the boxes with what they were, so they just had to be set in their respective places.
After another hour, all of the boxes were in their new house and all they had to do was unpack them all.
However, they decided to take everyone out for drinks and pizza at the Penny in order to say thank you.
"So Holly, tell us." Dov started off as Holly looked at him from over her beer.
"Yes?" She asked with a smirk.
"How does it feel knowing that you've domesticated Gail Peck? And how did you do it?" He asked as Gail pouted before taking another sip of her scotch.
"It feels great. And no sudden movement." She replied with a smirk as Traci laughed happily at Gail's face.
The blonde grimaced slightly, but then shrugged, knowing that she had, in fact, been domesticated by Holly, and she liked it.
"How about we bail in 30? I'd like some alone time with you in our new house." The blonde whispered in Holly's ear, smiling when the brunette shuddered slightly.
Holly simply looked into Gail's eyes and nodded fully before taking another sip of her drink.
About 15 minutes later, Holly got up and said something about being tired and ready to go to bed so she and Gail said their thank yous and goodbyes before they took off for their new house.
"Couldn't wait a full 30 minutes, nerd?" The blonde asked with a smirk as Holly pushed her up against the car.
"What, after watching an incredibly fit and gorgeous blonde move heavy things all day? Not a chance. Now, what do you say we go home?" She asked with a wide smile before she leaned forward to connect their lips happily.
Gail smiled into the kiss, deepening it slightly before she realized that they were still leaning against their car door in the middle of a bar parking lot.
The next morning, Gail woke up wrapped in Holly's arms with a smile.
They normally fell asleep with Gail spooning Holly and woke up the other way around, shifting positions in their sleep at some point.
She stretched slightly before she snuggled deeper into Holly's embrace, knowing that the brunette would be waking up soon and would want to unpack all of the boxes.
"Morning, gorgeous." She heard in a husky voice a few minutes later, waking her from her daydream.
She turned around in Holly's arms and connected their lips fully, smiling the whole way.
"Morning." She said as she leant her forehead against Holly's and closed her eyes.
"This is nice, I wish we could wake up like this every day." The brunette admitted as Gail nodded gently.
"Work." Gail said, knowing that it was the reason they didn't always get to wake up together.
"We should start unpacking everything that way we can curl up and just watch a movie later tonight." The brunette suggested.
"You're right. I just need coffee and then I'm ready to go!" The blonde said, kissing the tip of Holly's nose.
A few days later, both of the women were back in the full swing of things. Work had been really busy for both of them, but they were officially completely moved into their house.
Their anniversary was in two days and Gail had finally completed her list of dog-specific things she needed to grab from the store before then.
"This is Dr. Stewart." Holly answered as Gail smiled at the sound of her girlfriend's voice.
"Hi, babe." The blonde said simply.
"Hey, you." Holly breathed out happily, her whole mood being lifted.
"Are you swamped today?" Gail asked simply before she took a sip of her water.
"Kind of, sorry babe. I think I'll probably get off around 8 tonight." She said glumly.
"That's alright, Hol. I'll be getting off at like 6, so it'll give me time to have a shower and pick up some food. What are you in the mood for?"
"Thanks, Officer. How about Chinese?" She asked, now in a significantly better mood.
"Perfect. Alright, I have to run, but I'll see you at home?" Gail asked happily before Holly replied and she hung up.
"What's got you so happy, Peck? Holly just said she wouldn't be home until after you, normally you're not so happy when you learn that."
"Well that gives me just enough time to stop by a pet store and pick up supplies and then shove them in our workout room closet." Gail said happily after thinking it all through.
Since they had three extra bedrooms, they made one an office for Holly, one a workout room for Gail, and occasionally Holly. Though the brunette preferred to go for runs instead. The third room was made into a guest bedroom for when people came to visit or needed a place to crash.
After her shift, Gail drove to the closest pet store she knew of and grabbed a cart before she walked down every single dog-related aisle.
In her head, they were getting a large, male dog. So the blonde ended up getting a large crate, some bowls, a very nice black leather collar, a nice leash, a big pet bed, some food, and some toys.
She felt very accomplished with all of her shopping and before she knew it, she was out of the store and pulling into their two-car garage. She quickly moved all of the dog things into the gym closet and then made her way to the shower after she placed their Chinese order for pick-up.
The blonde was just washing her hair when she heard the shower door open and felt warm lips on her shoulder. She stayed facing the showerhead, leaning her head back as Holly massaged the shampoo into her scalp. The blonde had closed her eyes at the incredible feeling of Holly washing her hair before the brunette placed her under the water and began rinsing her hair for her.
Once Holly finished rinsing Gail's hair, the blonde opened her eyes and turned around to face her girlfriend.
"Well this is a nice surprise." Gail smirked as Holly nodded softly.
"Got out earlier than I thought."
"Well thanks for joining me in here, it's always nicer to have a Holly in my showers." She said with a wink as Holly wrapped her arms around Gail's neck, leaning in to suck on her neck, causing the blonde to moan.
After a while in the shower, the two got out and Holly was about to get into her pajamas when she noticed Gail get into her jeans.
"Why are you getting in your jeans, babe?" The brunette asked simply as her eyes raked over Gail's now bra and panty clad body.
"I just have to go run and pick up the food really fast. It should be ready in about 5 minutes, so I should be back in about 15." She said, smiling as Holly pouted.
"Well that sucks."
"Very well said, Doctor." Gail joked as Holly fake glared at her.
"I'll be back in a few minutes, Hol, you'll barely know I'm gone. How about you find something good on TV and get some drinks and I'll be back with the food shortly?"
"Alright, drive safely. See you in a few minutes." The brunette replied as Gail kissed her and then walked out to the garage.
Sure enough, not 20 minutes later, Gail was in her pajamas on the couch with Holly, both eating from different Chinese cartons, occasionally swapping their cartons with each other happily.
Almost three hours later, the two had finally settled into bed, ready for another night of good rest.
"I'm really glad that you got the cat out of the tree." Gail said slowly, somewhat slurring her words as she tried not to fall asleep just yet.
"So am I, Gail, so am I. I don't even know where I would be right now if I hadn't."
"Well you don't have to think about that because I love you, and I hate trees and nature." The blonde added, causing Holly to chuckle.
The blonde was spooning Holly and resting her head in between Holly's shoulder blades happily as the brunette picked up their intertwined hands and kissed Gail's softly.
"I love you too, babe." Holly said right before she drifted off to sleep, following Gail's lead.
