Video Call
"I don't know how I'm going to keep my hands off you," Luke told Penelope as they sat on the couch, waiting for their video call with the team to start.
"You're just going to have to try," she reminded him as his hands began to wander up her legs.
Luke was sure it was going to be impossible. For the last week, he'd had her all to himself. He'd taken her in every room in the house. He'd tasted her on the breakfast bar, bent her over the sofa until she was screaming, washed her in the shower until no speck of dirt was left and made sweet passionate love to her in both of the bedrooms. How as he meant to stop touching her now?
He'd quickly realised he liked her touch and he loved touching her. Not just in the sexual way, but in a sweet way; wrapping his arm around her waist as they watched television, having her feet in his lap as she worked on her laptop, running his fingers through her hair as she slept.
"I might die," he said dramatically. "I might die because of a lack of you."
"You're such a drama king," she teased. Despite her words, Penelope leaned across the couch and kissed him deeply. When she pulled away he pouted. "Put your big boy panties on," she said before she clicked the link to start the video call.
The call went well. The team went over the latest case they had been given and they'd made a small breakthrough so Luke was hoping that Matt and Tara would be able to catch the unsub soon. The number of cases Prentiss has received had diminished and she spoke with the team about possibly looking into several cold cases they had been asked to assist on. Everyone was up for it.
When the call ended and Penelope had clicked off of it, she gave him a sexy grin and then sat on his lap. Luke wrapped his arms around her and kissed her as if it were simultaneously their first and last kiss.
They both pulled back and Penelope moaned. "I love kissing you."
"The feeling's mutual," he retorted, kissing her again and angling his head so his tongue could slide between her lips and he could really taste her.
They were getting into it. His hands were roaming, one around the waist, the other travelling up her leg. Her hands were in his hair, grasping the strands and pulling him closer.
"Uh, guys… I'm still here."
Emily's voice cut through them and they pulled away from each other, expressions of both horror and shock on their faces.
Penelope turned and looked at the laptop. To her horror, she realised that she hadn't actually closed the video call but instead minimised it. She clicked on the window and Prentiss' face popped back up on the screen looking slightly amused.
From her place on his lap, Penelope let out a horrified squeak before leaning forward and actually ending the call this time, closing the window down and then shutting the lid of the laptop.
Luke and Penelope sat in stunned silence for a moment.
"They were going to find eventually…" Luke gently told her, his hands stroking her arms as he tried to comfort her.
"I know but I don't want this to change anything."
"It won't," Luke reassured. "Nothing will change the way I feel about you."
Penelope looked at him and smiled. "Ditto," she whispered before she leaned in and kissed him.
Three weeks later, Penelope, Luke and Roxy were on their way home. The FBI had managed to charter a private jet (finally) and they were allowed to leave… as long as they quarantined when they got back home.
"Hmm…" Luke began as he drove them towards the airport. Penelope was in the front next to him and Roxy was sat in the back, staring out the window.
"What?"
"We need to quarantine for two weeks when we get back… what are we going to do?" Luke could hear the teasing in his voice and he knew Penelope could too when she smiled.
"I can think of a few things," she teased, her fingers trailing along the inside of his thigh.
Luke chuckled and caught his roving hand with his. He brought it up to his lips and kissed the back of it.
Two more weeks of quarantine? He was definitely up for it.
And that's it for this fic! I hope you enjoyed it and it helped make this difficult time a bit easier. I hope you're all staying safe and positive - I'll hopefully see you all again on another one of my fics.
Thank you for the continued support that you show me. It means the world to me. If I don't see you before Christmas; Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
