Annika's POV
L decided that I should probably take him home. At the moment he and I were on the couch, he was laying on his back and I was laying on him, I was on my stomach, we had been watching south park. Suddenly my back started to hurt so I had to sit up and stretch, I stretched my arms over my head, I looked over to the microwave, damn it was 11:30. I guess it was about time that I took him home. I look back to him and I see that he is staring at me. I slap his arm lightly, "Come on get up, you're more lazy than me!" He smiled and slowly sat up, then he stood up, although it took him like 5 minutes. "Can I leave my shoes here?" I give him a small smirk, "It's not like they've been here all week." He made his way to the kitchen and his voice curt when he spoke "I'm taking that as a yes." He opened the fridge and grabbed a RC Cola. He opens it then takes a swig. He makes his way back over to me, his shoulders are slouched like most the time. I take the soda from his hand and he pouts. After I take a sip I give it back, "If you didn't slouch you'd be taller." He looked at me with humor gleaming in his eye, "Yeah but then it would be harder to do this.." He leaned down and kissed me, I smiled into the kiss, "It wouldn't be that big of a difference." I said to him when the kiss ended. He shrugged and took another drink. "I honestly don't want to leave." I couldn't help but smirk, "Then don't." It was like I could see the wheels turning in his head, "That's a wonderful idea but I don't believe Watari would like it." I frowned a little but got over it quickly. "I guess we should start going, don't want to make Watari mad now do we." There was an edge of humor in my voice. I could tell that he heard due to the smile that grew on his face. I grabbed my keys off the counter on the way out the door.
We had raced down the stairs, even though he was barefoot and had a soda in his hand he beat me. He was running to find my car and I slowed down. He's like a child when it comes to losing, I heard a faint poof and turned my head, and on my shoulder was what appeared to be a devil L "You wouldn't believe how he reacts when he loses, it's pretty hilarious." I was a little freaked out, but I decided to go with it, I whispered back to him, "What are you?" He snickered, "I'm L's little devil, or well the bad side of his thoughts, he also got an angel but I have no idea where he's been." I looked up and saw L leaning against the baby with a proud smile on his face, "Bad side huh, how bad can he be?" Devil L full out smiled, "He can be very dirty minded, well ever since he met you, that's really the only reason I exist, I like to make him think about erotic things mist times." I blushed a tiny bit, I was almost to the car. I looked back on my shoulder and he had disappeared. That was really weird, I had finally made it to the car and unlocked the door. We both climbed in, "You take forever." L said. I smiled as I started the ignition, still shivering at the rumble, "I am very lazy if you hadn't noticed, the only time you'll see me running fast is if it's for an ice cream truck or there is a killer behind me." He laughed heartily." His laughter stopped and I watched his face, his thumb find its way to his upper lip, before I pulled out of the parking space I popped in my favorite System of A Down albums, Hypnotise and then we were on our way as the strong guitar Gustavo Cerati floated throughout my speakers.
L's POV
Annika had taken a while to get to the car I didn't mind, but what I did mind was the fact that I saw her stare at her shoulder in bewilderment. I had a strong feeling that I knew who it was. When I saw her blush I knew exactly who it was, Devil L. I had no idea he could appear to other people, I just hope he didn't say anything too embarrassing. After we were in the car it was silent until she popped a CD into her radio. I was thinking to myself of course, then I heard the familiar poof of the devil me. I waited for him to speak, "Wazzzzup!" it was long and drawn out, I spoke to him by talking aloud in my head 'Why were you talking to Annika?' I could hear the venom in my voice, he smiled. "I just told her how much of a sore loser you are, and then she asked what I was, I simply said I was a little devil you, created due to your dirty mind, which is really thanks to her."
He looked smug, a little too smug. I cleared my throat. "So what time do you want to be picked up tomorrow?" she looked at me with an amused face, we already agreed around 12, I scolded myself for a second, how could I have forgotten such a thing like that. I mentally slapped myself, "I totally forgot about that." but she just chuckled so I wasn't too upset about it. "For a detective you sure are forgetful." I smiled at her, "I suppose I am, or it could just be that everytime I look at you my mind goes blank." I heard her snort, "Smooth move ." I couldn't help the small chuckle that escaped my mouth. I turn my head and look at her, her own eyes are focused on the road, her eyes show familiarity as we get closer to the hotel. I looked ahead, there was no other car insight, which is really weird for a city like this, I turned my gaze out the window and I listened to the song that was playing. "You are going to love the food I make you!" I jumped a little when she spoke, I was so distracted by the music, "We'll see about that." I raised my eyebrows, my tone was light. I turned and saw her smiling, not even a few minutes later we passed the cafe, where just earlier I had knocked that dude, was it James, yeah James on his ass. I smiled to myself, she is mine and only mine, no other person can take her from me. I wonder when I should introduce her to Near, Matt, and Mello.
They'd probably be jealous that I take time out of solving cases to hang out with her, I never really did that for them. I heard the faint poof of devil L, "There was that one time you guys pranked Roger by putting chocolate cake in his chair before he sat down, boy he was mad, and also don't forget the time Near, Matt, and you took all of Mello's chocolate and replaced it with plastic chocolate. Now that was a scene." He did have a point. But I believe I've spent more time with Annika for this past week than I've ever spent with the boys, at least in one consecutive period. Thankfully I still manage to work on small cases, there are a lot of murders here in America, I wonder why everybody wants to kill people? Lost in my thoughts I didn't notice that we had reached my hotel. She had parked out back, I really didn't want to leave, I looked up to Annika and she was smiling. "Want me to walk you to your room?" I smiled and joked with her "Oh you are such gentlemen." She laughed and got out of the car. I followed her lead then made my way to her side. I took her hand in mine as we walked. "This week has probably been the best week of my life." I didn't mean to sound gooey or anything, it was the truth. I had never been as happy as I am now. I felt her hand squeeze mine, I looked ahead, we were almost to the entrance but if I remember correctly she wanted to walk me to my room. Isn't it usually the other way around? Smiling, I looked at her and her eyes had a focused glaze but that gaze was locked on me, I saw her face blush a bit. Once we were in the lobby we made our way to the elevator. I pressed the button and we waited. She hasn't been to the hotel yet, it's not that big of a sight to see but I could still see her amazement.
Annika's POV
His hotel was huge, the inside was gorgeous, there were some people wandering the lobby but that was about it, besides the front desk person. I thought back to L statement, he did have a point this week had been a really fun week, sure I had to work but he was always there working on a case and eating cake. The elevator doors opened and I jumped a bit, I had forgotten where I was at for just a second. I heard L chuckle. He pulled me in and pressed floor 12, which was the top floor. It was going to take awhile, I squeezed his hand again and looked him in the eye. His smile was still faint, and for once his shoulders weren't slouched, he was just slightly taller, like 2 inches. He still has dark bags under his eyes but that just adds to his attractiveness, at least to me it does. The elevator binged indicating that we had reached his floor. We stepped out and he led the way. At the end of the hallway was room 1235, I guess that's his room. He turned and faced me, "I'll pick you up tomorrow," He leaned down and gave a small kiss, "don't forget." He winked at me, I smiled, "See you later detective, I got on my tiptoes and gave him a kiss on his cheek, he wasn't expecting that. He smiled and reached into his pocket, pulling out the key card, "Be safe on the way down." We focused on each other until he turned and opened the door, waving to me as I made my way down the hallway, I watched him watch me walk down the hallway to the elevator. So protective sometimes. I was back to my car in a matter of minutes, I thought of texting him that I had made it to the car safely but I had forgotten my phone at home. All I could think of now was getting home and sleeping, maybe I should take a shower so I don't have to take one tomorrow. I smiled to myself, tomorrow was going to be one of the best days ever.
When I got home I went straight to the bathroom, turning on the shower I stripped my clothing, but before I hopped in I went looking for my phone which was on the charger. It had like 7 messages, all from L, 'Hey' 'Are you home' 'Did you get kidnapped' 'Answer your phone before I decide to call the cops' 'wait I technically am a cop' 'I will find you' 'Annika come on.' I giggled the last message which had been sent just a few minutes ago, I decided to text back 'Calm your nips, I left my phone home and I was just getting ready to hop in the shower :'D.' I didn't wait for his reply. Instead I threw my phone on the bed and got in the shower.
After my shower I braided my hair and got dressed in a t-shirt and boxers, there was no need for shorts since I'm going to bed. When I laid in bed I reached for my phone reading L's reply, 'For a second I actually thought you had gotten kidnapped.' I smiled 'You are so protective, besides I would have kicked anybody who tried to touch me.' I waited for the reply, 'You never kick me" I chuckled, 'You're a different case obviously.' I checked the time 12:45, geez, it's not even that late. I sat up in bed and looked around the room. Mainly I was looking for Mr. BusinessMan, he was nowhere in sight but then it hit me, I looked under the bed and sure enough he was cuddled up asleep, I crawled under with him and gently started to pet him, "Your mommy's baby." I cooed to him, it didn't seem to disturb his sleep but he did start purring. "You like L right?" I whispered, it seemed to make him wake up and look at me, I stared into his eyes, then he licked my face. I was going to take that as a yes. I wrapped my arms around him and started to wriggle my way out from under the bed, still in my arms. Standing up I gently put him on the bed, then grab my phone, 'What kind of different case?' I think about the question for a second, 'I know you won't purposely hurt me, and we are kinda dating.' The statement was true so I sent it. I laid back in bed with and decided to send L a picture of my cat and I. It was just a simple picture of my face in his belly fat, he looked a little annoyed but he's used to it.
L texted me until 3, that's when I texted him that I was going to bed. I didn't wake up until 11:45, I thought I had set an alarm set but I guess I had the wrong day or something. I stretched and made my way to the kitchen, opening up the fridge, I grabbed the green beans, the stalk of broccoli, 2 garlic cloves, maple syrup, soy sauce, and oyster sauce. I put each bag on the counter, I was going to make bell pepper candy to start him off with. I already dehydrated the bell peppers, then my buffet recipe for green beans, and for the broccoli I was going to steam it and add a bunch of butter, honey and some of the garlic. I opened the cabinet above the stove and grabbed a big lunch box, I used to make my lunch to go to school, then loaded all the ingredients into it.
Double checking to make sure I had everything I turned to go back to my room, but then I heard a knock at the door, I rushed to open it, forgetting my state of dress. Of course it was L, I smiled at him "Hey, you want to come in I'm almost ready." I could see his eyes trail down and a slight blush across his face, I look down and then turn as red as a tomato, the shirt doesn't really cover my underwear all the well, they were my favorite pair of Nightmare Before Christmas boxers, I looked him in the eyes, then calmly ran to my room and shut the door, at least I know I like him I thought and they are just boxers. I changed my clothes, I put on a pair of ripped jeans, and just kept the T-shirt I wore to bed on. I went to the bathroom and looked in the mirror, the blush was still slightly on my cheeks, I pulled the braid out and somewhat brushed my hair, leaving my curtain that covers my eye. Taking a breath I walk out of my room phone in hand. L was sitting on the couch in his normal sitting position. "Okay I think I'm ready." He turned his head slightly, eyeing me up and down, "Okay." There was a slight voice crack that I could hear. He seems more embarrassed than I am. I had to smile at him as he got up, I went to the kitchen and grabbed the lunch box. I went to grab my keys but then remembered that he's driving, or at least I think he is.
L's POV
I did not expect Annika to be in her underwear when she answered the door, I also didn't expect her to still look really good in boxers, I had slowly crept my way in her apartment closing the door behind me, and then headed to the couch to sit down. "Man what a site, wasn't that beautiful, now just think of her in yours and with no shirt, boy now that'll be a fun day." I couldn't help but blush at the devil's statement. "Well now we have a new thing to have fantasies with." I shook my head, trying to clear the image out of my mind but it didn't really work. I take a deep breath, and start to think of a naked Roger, "Dude what are you, oh my gawd, that's so gross stop thinking about that, it's a weapon of mass destruction!"HeI sees the images I imagine, good he deserves it. Smiling to myself I wait for Annika.
She came out a minute later with her phone in hand, "Okay I think I'm ready." My eyes traveled down her body, just to make sure she was properly dressed, "Okay." I could hear the crack in my voice and blushed a little, my voice hasn't cracked in years. As I got up I saw her smile at me, then she went to the kitchen and grabbed a lunch box, probably what she's making me. I hope her cooking skills are legit. Well they probably are, she must cook for herself a lot. I see her reach for her keys but she retracts her hand. I smiled, I got to drive, Watari insisted that he should drive but I talked him out of it. "Let's head out." Her voice was calm, "Yes, let's." My voice was calmer than the last I spoke.
When we left I noticed she didn't lock her apartment, "That isn't safe." I explain to her she just raises an eyebrow, "Who's gonna rob my apartment? I don't have shit worth taking, except for the T.V and Xbox." I shrug at her, "Not my fault if you do get robbed." She slugged my arm, "Stop being a smart ass detective it can't be good for you." I just smiled at her, we walked down the stairs and to my car which I was lucky enough to park close to the building. I brought the same car Watari drove me in, it's really nice, I like it. But I had to admit Annika's car was better. We smiled at each other as we climbed in. "Are you sure you can drive?" I turned to her and my eyes squinted, "No I just plan to kill us both." She just laughed, I was trying to be scary but I guess it didn't work. The situation still put a smile on my face, and I pulled out the spot and we were on our way to my hotel.
The car ride was longer than last nights, because of the traffic, but the car ride wasn't boring, we had decided to play 'I spy' which I won, I was looking at a car way in front of us and she couldn't find it, it was a dick move but hey I like to win. But to be nice I let her win one round, I couldn't find something green besides the grass, it had been the lights on the radio, it was gently playing. When we had made it to the hotel I was a little jittery, I was excited for her to really meet Watari, he's like a father to me, I know that they've talked like once or was it twice, but that still isn't the proper introduction. Together we stepped out of the car, her one hand was occupied with holding the lunch box, so I took the other and occupied it with my own hand. We walked into the hotel hand in hand just like last night. I kept her up until 3:00 just texting random shit. It was pretty hilarious, today is already exciting but still a little scary. I was going to eat vegetables, doesn't sound like the best day ever. I trust her not to kill me, so it better be worth it. We walked over to the elevator and for once it was the ground floor. I pressed 12 and we were on our way, the elevator was playing soft gentle music, it was nice, then I heard a snicker from Annika, I turned and looked at her in confusion. "Stereotypical elevator music, doooo do dooo DA Dun do dooo." I smiled at her replication on the music, seriously she could find the humor in anything.
Finally the elevator dinged indicating we were on my floor, so stepping out we make our way down the hallway but I stop us in front of the door I look at her, "Okay so Watari is probably going to question you, and watch you cook, and keep his eyes on us, he'll do almost anything to keep track so don't be freaked out." She nodded, "He can't be that bad, he looks nice." I just winked and turned to unlock the door with the card key. We walked in, the air was slightly colder than the hallway, "Watari I'm back." I call out, then I see him poke his head out of the side of the wall separating the kitchen from the living area. "Oh good good, we can start cooking, right after I speak with you." He pointed his finger at Annika, I pointed at myself and he shook his head, "No L, her, I want to speak to her." His face was straight, his tone even. I looked at Annika and gave her a small smile, and squeezed her hand then letting go, I went to my room and got my laptop by the time I walked back Annika and Watari were already out of sight. I make my way to my chair and sit down placing my laptop on my knees.
Annika's POV
When L walked off I was a little frightened but I still made my way to Watari, he gave me a gentle smile, and took the lunch box from my hand, and turned to go put it on a counter. "What do you see in L?" The question struck me off guard. I took a while to think, and looked down "His aura, I saw him and my body locked up, and he was so nice, I had spoken to him in Japanese and I thought I made a fool of myself but he replied back, I was surprised. His hair is just unnaturally messy, you know you should try to brush it, and his smile makes me smile. His personality is awesome, even though we've only known each other for, what a week, I feel like it's been forever." I looked up to Watari, he seemed to be thinking, "Do you know what his job is?" I smiled and nodded, "He's a detective, a good one I bet, he's really smart and I've watched him solve a case in one day." Watari nodded, "Have you guys ever..." He cleared his throat, "done the deed." I was confused for a second but then I remembered what that meant and I immediately started to shake my head no I could feel my cheeks turning red, "Nope, that has never happened." Watari looked relieved, "That's all I wanted to know, now let's get to cooking." I sighed.
I walked over to the counter and opened the lunch box pulling out the contents, I could feel Watari staring at me but I ignored it, I was going to start with the candied peppers, I dehydrated them at home so all we had to do was add the maple syrup to them, it couldn't hurt to add a little honey as well. I took the bag of the candied peppers and looked over to Watari, "Can I have a plate?'', he nodded and made his way to one of the cabinets, pulling down a plate and handing it to me, I smiled at him. Then I went back to the counter, put the plate down, opened the bag and poured out the peppers, I picked a piece up and ate it, yup delicious. But I still took the maple syrup and poured it one the peppers, I handed a piece to Watari, he looked at it then ate it, he smiled, "L will not believe this, it taste just like candy!" I smiled, "That's why we start with this one, that way L will be more tempted to eat the green beans and broccoli." Watari clapped his hands once, "You are such a smart girl, no wonder L likes you." I smiled in return, then I turned back to the rest of the stuff laid out on the counter.
I pick up the green beans and turn to Watari, "Can you get me a strainer." he gives me a faint nod and turns to go get the strainer, I turn back to the counter, I gather the oyster sauce, soy sauce, and garlic cloves, "Dammit I forgot the sugar, and oil." Watari patted my back and handed me the strainer, "We have sugar, and we have oil, you see those are some of the main ingredients to make a cake." I smile at him then ask again, "Do you have butter?" He nods, I smile. I pour the green beans out of the bag and into the strainer, then walk over to the sink to rinse them off. "Where's the garbage?" Watari points to the end of the counter and I see the trash can , I must be blind. Walking over I set the strainer on the counter next to the trash can then start snapping the ends of the green beans. After all of that I walk back over to the other ingredients, I grab the garlic cloves and look for the cutting board which is by the stove. I make my way over, and I see the knife block too, after setting the cloves on the board I go to the block and pick out the right knife. Then I start to chop the garlic into fine pieces, leaving them there I walk over to Watari, "Can I have a skillet?" he nods again and goes to get it, when he hands it to me I walk over to the oven and put it on the largest bunner. "Watari, if you wanted to you can start on the broccoli, it just has to be steamed, buttered and add honey." I look at him, "That's a grand idea Annika." I smile and watch him start to prepare, I go back to the counter with the ingredients for the green beans, I gather them up in my arms and make my way back to the stove. I see that Watari has already put the oil and sugar next to the board, I light up the burner with the skillet on it and pour some oil in it and wait for it to heat up, then I take the chunks of garlic and add it to the oil, looking for a spoon it seems that Watari can read minds because he was walking over with a spoon, I smile to him and grab the spoon. I stir the garlic in the oil, I wait for the sides to brown, then I pour in the green beans, stirring them occasionally, I see that Watari is standing next to me steaming the broccoli, I hadn't even noticed. After a while I pick up a green bean and eat it to see how soft it is. Perfect I think, then I grab the oyster sauce and pour some of it in the skillet, then the soy sauce, and last up not least I add sugar, a little more than I usually do. I mix it all up then let it sit, I go over to the peppers which are sitting out on the counter, I take a piece and eat it, then I turn back to the stove, Watari is watching the broccoli and the green beans, "Only a few more minutes and the green beans should be done." he nodded and I walked out of the kitchen, I saw L sitting with his laptop on his knees, he hasn't noticed me yet.
That gave me an idea. I slowly made my way so that I'm behind his chair. I looked at his laptop, on the screen are a bunch of gory images of a woman, but it didn't bother me, I loved watching scary movies. He had other documents up, I started to lightly twirl his hair, he hadn't noticed, well he acted like he didn't. After a while three of the documents were closed and then he opened up two more. His breathing was even, I could tell that he was highly concentrated, "Annika?" I looked up and saw Watari, "The food is almost done." I smiled and nodded, I was starting to go around the chair when I heard L speak up, "How long were you behind me?" I turned and smiled at him, "Not that long, I was twirling your hair and you didn't seem to notice, oh and I think it's that John guy, he was her boyfriend before she died, but he doesn't seem to be really grieving like he says he is." L looked at me with curiosity in his eyes, and nodded. I walked back to the kitchen, I saw Watari adding butter to the broccoli and that he had taken the skillet off of the burner, "Thank you Watari." He nodded and I went over to the skillet, I picked up a green bean and tried it, it was delicious, and since I added more sugar it was really sweet. I smiled to myself then walked over to Watari, "Can I try the broccoli?" He looked at me, "Yeah go ahead." I smiled and picked up a piece of broccoli, there was a lot of butter and the honey made it sticky. I ate the piece and smiled as I chewed, "This is really good, good job Watari." he smiled at me "Thank you Annika." After that we started to set up the greens on the plates, smiling I made my way out to the living area, I closed L's laptop, "Hey I was working on that!" I smiled at him, "Oh well, it's time to eat." He groaned, I yelled in a cheerful voice "Let the games begin!" That made L chuckle but I still had to pull him out of the chair.
L's POV
Thanks to Annika's insight on the case I looked more into the John guy, he was this woman's boyfriend, but this thing is with this lady was that she was rich, and I mean really rich. She had tons of other 'boy toys'. She was murdered brutally, her body was badly beaten, she was raped before and after she died. And that's not even half of it, she had the words, bitch, slut, whore, white trash, carved into her face. And to top it all off they had chopped off her right arm and shoved it up her vigina, a very gruesome case indeed. "Looks like that arm slipped in easy, just look how stretched she already was." It was Devil L, I have learned to ignore him but I couldn't help but chuckle at his statement, but then I heard another faint voice, "I swear if you get a boner from that I'm telling Roger." I looked up a little confused but then saw angel L on Annika's head, he was doing yoga and he looked a little over stretched too. I was about to say something when Annika shut my laptop. "Hey I was working on that!" She smiled at me "Oh well it's time to eat." I groaned then I heard Annika yell, "Let the games begin!" I chuckled at her but I still refused to get up, she literally had to drag me to my feet.
I was laughing by the time I was standing. She smiled and then grabbed my arm, taking me to the kitchen. It did smell good, I saw red and yellow on one plate, and the next two plates had green. I was waiting for Watari to introduce what they were. But that didn't happen. Nope, instead I sat in a chair, and was blindfolded, yes blindfolded, just so I could eat vegetables, "Getting kinky are we?" Of course it was devil L, he did have a point kinda. "Open your mouth." It was Watari, I refused, shaking my head side to side, then I felt two hands squishing my cheeks "Stop it!" But alas they stuffed something in my mouth, I was reluctant to chew then I felt someone's breath on my ear, "Come on L, do it for me." It was Annika, her tone was hushed, still reluctant I started to chew, I tasted maple syrup which was delicious but it also had a tang to it that I couldn't explain. I went to take off my blindfold and had my hand slapped, "If you see the food you won't eat it." Both Annika and Watari said, I swallowed the vegetable, "I swear I will eat it all, I just want to know what it looks like."
I heard faint mumbling, then I felt the blindfold being removed, thank goodness. I opened my eyes, they had to adjust to the lighting. But before they were fully adjusted I heard Annika, "Okay open up." I saw something green but just shrugged, the other one was good so this one must be just as well. I opened up and the flavor flooded my mouth, garlic, soy sauce, ohhh sugar. There was something else I couldn't figure out. But it was good. Only one more to go, I looked at the green on the fork, it was broccoli, my most hated of the vegetables. I grimaced but still opened my mouth, I could taste a lot of butter and the honey, which is really good, but I faintly tasted some sugar. I hastily swallowed. Then smiled, "I won!" My exclamation made both Annika and Watari jump back, but then I laughed. I walked over to look at the plates on the counter, the peppers were the ones I enjoyed the most so I grabbed the plate, and headed back to the living room and sat down in my big chair. I saw Annika walking out the kitchen with a plate of green beans and a fork. She sat in the chair closest to me. She smiled as I stuffed three peppers in my mouth. Then she giggled. I chewed and swallowed, "What's so funny?" She looked up, "You stuff your face like a rabbit. But you're still my kitten." I squinted at her and stuffed my mouth. She just shook her head and smiled, then stuffed her mouth with green beans, those were pretty good too. I walked over to her and pointed to the greens, "Can I have some?" She really smiled, "Here you go detective." She placed a handful on my plate with her own hand. If it was anyone else I would have freaked. I went and sat down. We finished eating in a nice peaceful silence, with the exception of a few laughs here or there. She took my plate and her own to the kitchen. I looked up at the ceiling. Today has been really fun, I'm surprised at myself but not really, I hate losing so it was worth it. I wonder where my prize cake is? My thoughts were interrupted by a hand moving my legs, of course it was Annika, she was spreading them open, I was about to ask what she was doing but then she sat down. My legs were spread to the side so she sort of sat on my lap, her legs bending at the knee like mine. She used my one leg to balance and her arm went around my neck. Me being the brave one placed one hand under her thigh and the other on the knee of the same leg. She smiled at me and me to her. She relaxed and laid her head on my shoulder, "We can get your cake later, it's at the cafe." I smiled, "Whenever is fine, as long as you're here I have my prize." I kissed her neck and she giggled, "You're so sappy." I chuckled,
"Don't worry I'll be a jerk later." She lifted her head and stared at me, a smile still on her face. She leaned forward and I copied her movements. Our lips met gently, I felt her smiling in the kiss, just as I used my tongue to ask for access, I heard someone clear their throat. I broke the kiss and looked up, of course it was Watari. "What?" I was slightly angry and I could hear my own tone, Annika slapped my back, I flinched. "Well sir I was wondering if you have finished that case yet." I looked at him with a nonchalant face, "I have a main suspect. I just want him interrogated more, the guy John whatever his last name was." Watari nodded and left the room, Annika smiled at me, "I guess we could go get that cake, I don't want Watari to walk in on us, then again we probably shouldn't start to make out in the living room." I chuckled, "Yeah we don't want that to happen again." But on the inside I just wanted to sit here and continue, but Annika climbed off of my lap. She stood up, I followed her lead. We were going to the cafe and for the first time today, I was going to eat some cake.
