----------
Alex Eames knows Bobby Goren better than anyone. After all, it's to be expected after being partners for seven years. They've practically lived out of each other's pocket, gone into life threatening situations and seen each other at their worst. All that adds up over the years and it's only natural that she knows everything about him and she knows exactly how to manipulate him too. And what's the greatest part of it, Bobby has no idea she's doing it.
Thursday night was movie night for them, had been since about the fifth year of the partnership. She would show up at his apartment with a movie in hand and they'd eat popcorn and just hang out. It was on one of these nights that she figured out Bobby's greatest weakness. She had simply ruffled his hair for a bit longer than usual and had watched him turn into goo in her hands. So, she kept it up and as time went on, his eyes started to drift closed, he relaxed into the couch and she's convinced to this day that if her phone hadn't have gone off, she could have made him purr.
Now, every time she wants something from him she knows exactly how to get it out of him. She can't use it at work, that would give away a little too much, but when they're alone and she runs her fingers through his hair for awhile and she hears the most magical words in the world.
"Okay Alex."
