It was nice going out with Lily. Taking her out for dinner. Taking her out to the movies. Stealing a good night kiss. Peter was thirty years old and finally now living his life.

"Are those for me?" Jordan grinned looking at the four daisies in Peter's hand. He blushed, glancing at them. He shook his head.
"Sorry. Not this time." Peter said.

"Blushing like a school boy. They must be for Nigel." Jordan chuckled walking to the morgue. Jordan was one weird woman. Peter knocked on Lily's office door.

"It's open." Lily looked up. A giant smile came across her face when she saw Peter. He held out the flowers, "For me?"

"But of course." he said. Lily took the flowers, "I looked for lillies but the florist didn't have any." Lily giggled softly putting the flowers in a cup of water.

"Well, I love daisies. Thank you."

"youre welcome." Peter said, "Has it been busy today?" Lily shook her head.

"Three bodies. That's it." She looked up at him. "it's a good day to catch up on paperwork." Peter groaned sitting in the chair in front of her.

"That's my least favourite part of this job." He told her, "But I think youre right."

"After you do all of that, you'll get a reward." Lily winked. Peter grinned and got up.

"Rewards are good." He winked as he left the room. Lily sighed with happiness. Peter was so sweet. He was such a gentlman. It was nice to find someone like that.

"Lily," Jordan walked into her office, "Mr. Johnson's family is on their way. I'll need you."

"All right." She said. Jordan looked at the flowers.

"Those are from Peter." Jordan said. Lily chuckled.

"how did you know?" She asked.

"I saw him with them." Jordan told her. "Are you two like an item?"

"No." Lily said. AN Item. No, they weren't were they? "We're just having a fun time together. It's nothing serious."

"Well, I've never seen you in a relationship nor Peter. I think it'd have to be kind of serious if the two of you actually are seeing people." Jordan said. "And I have noticed how giddy you've been,."

"I haven't been giddy." Lily said.

"You've had a permanent grin on your face. It's kind of creepy." Jordan winked as she walked out of Lily's office.
"I do not." She mumbled looking in the mirror. Sure enough there was a grin upon her face. "Look what youre doing to me."

Lily locked her office door. She felt someone staring at her.
"Are you done with your paper work?" She asked. Peter chuckled.
"Yes, Mother." he told her.

"Good." She said grabbing her purse, "Walk home with me?"
"I was planning on it." Peter said walking to the elevator with her.

"Thanks. I like having a body guard." Lily chuckled leaning against the elevator wall. Peter grinned putting hand around her slender waist. His simple touches heated her body up.
"I like guarding your body." Peter winced when that came from his mouth. "I didn't mean it in a crude way."

"I know." Lily chuckled. "I didn't take it in a crude way."

"Good." He said as they stepped off of the elevator. Peter wrapped his arm around Lily's shoulders as they walked out of the building. She cuddled into him. She felt so comfortable with him. It was wonderful.

"Want to go to the beach this weekend?" Lily asked. Peter automatically thought of her in a bathing suit. He grinned.

"Most defentally." he said.

"Cool." Lily said. "Do you own a speedo?"

"Thankfully no." Peter laughed. Lily pouted causing him to kiss the top of her head.

"Jordan knows you gave me those flowers. She asked if we were a serious item." Lily said.

"What did you tell her?" Peter asked.

"I said we were having fun together and weren't serious yet." Lily told him. Peter nodded.

"All right." he said, "I was wondering that myself."

"Oh." Lily chuckled as they walked along. They neared her apartment building. She looked at Peter, "Would you like to come up and check my apartment out?" Peter nodded.

"Sure." he smiled. Lily unlocked the front door and showed Peter in.

"I'm on the second floor." She said.

"You know what they say. First is the worse and second is the best." Peter winked. Lily couldn't help but to laugh.

"I sure hope you're right." She said walking up the stairs. Peter followed behind her, trying to not let his eyes drift upward. Lily stopped in front of a door and unlocked it. "Well, here we are."
"Here we are." Peter said as Lily showed him her apartment. He looked around. This apartment was very Lily. He smiled, "Nice."

"It's tiny, but it suits me." She said looking at him. Peter eyes met hers. Lily stared into his eyes. It was as if both of them could read each others minds. Lily wrapped her arms around his neck, pulling him into a kiss.
The kiss was even more intense than all their previous kisses. Lily nipped at Peter's lip as his tongue plunged into her mouth, eliciting a small groan from her. That sound excited Peter. Lily pulled him to her living room couch. They both fell onto it in a heap of kisses.

The heat between them was building up. Peter's lips began to attack Lily's neck. Her entire body shivered. That was her spot. Right on her pulse point, Peter kissed her. Her hands caressed his shoulders as her heart began to race.

"Peter…" She whispered. Neither of them had been in this position in a very long time. Another groaned came from Lily's throat at Peter's hand slid up her leg. When she felt where his hand was going, she pushed it away. "W-We should stop." Peter pulled away panting.

"What?" He whispered.
"We should stop before this goes too far." Lily pushed him gently as she sat up, fixing her hair. Peter sighed sitting up.

"What's wrong with it going that far?" He asked her. Lily smiled looking at him.

"We're not there yet. At least I'm not there yet." She told him, "Sex messes things up. I just want to wait, all right?" Peter nodded.

"Sure. I'll wait with you." He said.

"Thanks." She smiled cuddling into him. Peter sighed deeply. He was certainly ready for that step with Lily, but if she wasn't he respected that. He would wait for her.
