Jordan sped to the crime scene, wishing not for the first time that her
Explorer was equipped with lights and sirens. Hmmmm maybe she could talk to
Garrett about that. Woody was pacing around the crime scene, trying to
write up a preliminary report. The first officer on scene was trying to
relay his findings to him but he sensed that Woody wasn't quite following.
Actually it didn't seem like he was listening at all.
"Everything okay sir?" He asked, but Woody's attention was still elsewhere, wondering who would be responding from the M.E.'s office.
"Sir?" The officer tried again to capture his attention. This time Woody became faintly aware of the Officer's presence beside him.
"I'm sorry, what were you saying?" Woody asked, embarrassed by his lack of attention to the crime scene.
"You seem a bit distracted sir" the Officer smiled.
"Yeah, I guess I was, a bit" Woody admitted sheepishly.
"Well dispatch just radioed that Cavanaugh's on the way from the M.E.'s office to pronounce our vic, I don't know if that helps you focus" The officer said, treading lightly on the subject of his superior officer's personal life, not wanting to overstep the boundaries.
Woody smiled graciously, acknowledging this information.
Jordan got there and made her way down to the wooded hillside to the body. Woody instinctively reached out his arm for her so she wouldn't slip, she took it and held on a little longer than she probably needed to.
"Hey Woody" she greeted him casually.
"Hi Jordan" he returned equally as casually.
Everyone knew they were together but they had agreed not to let their relationship interfere with their work and that they would act completely professional while at work.
"Whatcha got for me?" Jordan asked kneeling down to assess the body.
Woody knelt down across fro her and started going over the case details with her.
"Caucasian female, No ID, early 20's, multiple stab wounds and evidence of sexual assault, looks like she was killed somewhere else and dumped here" he said staring at her.
She glanced over and caught him staring. She grinned at him, he grinned back. "Would it be considered unprofessional if I were to tell you that I desperately want to kiss you right now?"
She chuckled "Yeah, I think so, and kind of gross since we're kneeling over a dead body at the moment"
He shrugged "Sorry, I just can't help it"
"I'm not complaining, I understand, believe me I understand," she said emphatically.
They finished up and walked back to their cars. Woody opened Jordan's door for her.
"So I'll see ya back at the office?" she asked.
He nodded and started to lean in to kiss her, then realized there was still a ton of cops and crime scene people still around. They let out a collective sigh and got into their separate cars and headed back to the morgue.
Once they got there Jordan directed him into her office. He followed her in and swung the door shut behind him while pulling her into his arms at the same time. He pulled her tightly against him and kissed her hungrily. He relented after stealing a few more small kisses.
She smiled and sighed. "Well that should pretty much sufficiently ruin my concentration for the rest of the day"
He grinned proudly "Sorry I just couldn't wait another second to do that"
She smiled adoringly and ran her hand along his cheek. "Okay detective, you ready to get back to work?" she asked returning to professional mode and heading down the hall towards autopsy. It took Woody a few moments longer to regain his professionalism as he stood back and watched her saunter down the hall. She smiled back at him over her shoulder, teasingly.
