Disclaimer: I own nothing except my imagination
A/N: Thank you to everyone who left reviews and followed this story. So this idea came when I brainstormed with one of my group of girls on twitter so that is what it looks like.
Sylvie was getting ready in her room for girls night. They had agreed to have it at Matt and Gabby's tonight, Matt fleeing to Molly's for the evening.
"Girl's night?" Antonio leaned against the doorframe with his hands in his pockets.
"Yeah." She turned her head to smile at him. "Gabby insisted we do it at her place." She pulled a hot sweater over her head, her leggins already on. "What are your plans for tonight?"
"Nothing planned so far but maybe I'll swing by Molly's later, we'll see."
"Are you sure you don't want me to spend the evening with you? I'm sure the girls won't mind"
"Absolutely not. Gabby would kill me if I kept you away from girls night."
"And we can't have that now can we?" She wrapped her arms around his neck and pushed herself up to kiss him.
"We definitely can't have that." He pulled a hand out of his pocket and circled her waist as their lips parted. Sylvie sported the most casual look, her hair in soft waves around her shoulders and still she was hot to him. "Now get out of here before my offer to send you to girls night expires." He kissed her again, this time releasing her.
"Ok, I'm out of here." She gave him one last peck on the lips and grabbed her purse, leaving to meet the girls. Her phone dinged as she sat in her car. You look beautiful by the way. Sylvie blushed, alone and smiled before answering him.
Thank you. Call me later. He chuckled to himself and grabbed his things, locking Sylvie's place behind himself. He headed back to his own place, knowing full well that he'd end up at Molly's to join the others for a few drinks while Sylvie had fun with his sister and their friends.
"Brett! About time you got here." Stella yelled as Gabby pulled Sylvie inside.
"I wouldn't miss girls night for anything." She grinned, a glass of wine being pushed in her hands.
"Gotta pry you from loverboy every once in a while." Stella laughed and Gabby slightly recoiled. Sure this was their second go at their relationship but she still didn't enjoy hearing about their privacy.
"Enough about boys, let get this party started." Gabby raised a bottle of whiskey and the girls cheered. They were still waiting for Burgess and Upton to join them but it didn't stop them getting their drinking on. About half an hour late, it was a full house, the girls already slightly intoxicated, laughing out loud. They were sharing embarassing stories of all kinds and the alcohol only hightened their sense of humour, Sylvie holding her hurting sides from laughter.
"How about we take this party to Molly's?" Haley suggester between bouts of laughter.
"And how do you suggest we get there?" A drunken Gabby asked.
"We take a cab." Kim suggested. "The boys will be there and they'll be able to bring us back home."
"Not unless their drunk too." Sylvie stiffled a laugh.
"Come on, let's go." Sylvie pulled Gabby upright from the couch and all five girls headed out the door and towards Molly's bar.
Antonio took a sip of his beer as some of intelligence and 51 were hurdled around him. "Wher's your better half?" Questionned Ruzek.
"Girls night at his place." He pointed his beer bottle in Matt's direction.
"No doubt getting drunk off their asses." Kelly chuckled as he took a pull of his own beer.
"Speaking of drunk." Everyone turned at Matt's words as the group of girls poured into the bar in complete laughter.
Gabby wrapped her arms around Matt's neck and pushed her body against his. "Hey baby." She kissed him on the lips.
"What are you guys doing here?" Gabby had been adament that girls night be at their place, kicking him out of his own home and there they were now.
"Wellll." She slurred. "Haley here wanted to swing by here and no one objected." She kissed him again.
"Babe." Antonio pulled a giggly Sylvie to him. "How many did you have already?" He chuckled as he kissed her.
"Just a little." She showed her thumb and forefinger together.
"I'll bet." He laughed, not letting go of her.
"Hey Otis." She laughed, hailing Otis as he walked by. "A round of shots for me and the girls." The song changed and suddenly Sylvie squealed. "Gabbyyy!" Antonio released his hold on her, knowing what was coming next.
Sylvie pulled Gabby away, the rest of the girls following behind as they made it to the back of the bar where they could dance.
"Looks like we're the designated drivers tonight." Matt laughed as he watched his wife and the rest of the girls dance to the music.
"That's fine by me." Antonio took a pull of his beer as he kept an eye on his girl having fun. The girls danced along to a few more songs before Antonio followed them to the bar with his eyes before returning to his conversation with the boys. Even though they were in the same physical space, he just wanted her to have some fun, no matter how drunk she would end up becoming or what state she would be when they got back home.
Sylvie pulled herself away from the girls and headed straight for the bar. The place was visibly more crowded, even in the state she was in she noticed so she had to elbow her way a bit to reach Otis and Herrmann who were manning the bar tonight.
"Hey Otis." She yelled over the noise as he was serving someone already.
"Hey there." She turned to the sound of the voice and she found a man with a large smile next to her. She smiled back and returned to her mission. "Can I buy you a drink?" He tried again, not liking the cod shoulder she was giving him. Herrmann was the one who got to her first and she ordered a round of cocktails for the girl. "Hey, I saw walk in earlier." She would give him that, he was persistant in his attempt.
"Well if you saw me come in earlier that you know I have a boyfriend." She simply said, leaving him with a shocked look on his face.
"Hey Antonio, isn't that guy a little bit too close to Brett?" Antonio turned and looked at what Adam was pointing but he simply smirked when he saw his girl give him a final talking and walk away.
"She can handle herself." He chuckled, giving Adam a pat on the back as he watched her walk away and re-join the girls.
"Oh I know she can but she's also drunk."
"Trust me, he's in even more trouble now." He had seen Sylvie with a fair amount of drinks in her system and she was even more feisty in that state. Still he kept an eye on her because his thoughts were never far from her.
The girls danced for another half an hour maybe before they all made their way to the bar this time, looking for another round of drinks. "Christopher." Gabby beckoned him with her sweet voice. He came to them with a chuckle. "Can we have another round of shots please?"
"Don't you think you've had enough Dawson?" He gave them another chuckle, knowing full well how many drinks had been poured for them since their arrival and knowing the kind of alcohol that was most likely consumed at her and Casey's house before that.
"Come on Chris, our designated drivers are right there." Sylvie smiled as she pointed Antonio and the others at the other table.
"Their drinks are on me." Sylvie turned and looked at the same man that was standing in that same spot the last time she was at the bar.
"You don't give up do you?"
"You ladies look like your having fun, I'm just trying to get in on that." Sylvie was now facing him directly.
"Is that so?" She took a menacing step towards him. "Looks to me like you just want to get in my pants."
"I like how you think." His hand was now on her elbow.
"Well you can keep it in your pants honey because I have all I need, right there." She pushed his hand away and pointed to Antonio, who had his back to her still. The girls were already back on the dance floor, Sylvie left at the bar to get rid of the guy.
For some reason, Adam couldn't keep his eyes off of Brett. Molly's was their bar and when someone came at one of their own, they had each others back. He watched her as she and the girls returned to the bar for yet another round of drinks. Sure he knew what kind of girl Brett was and he was glad he had gotten to know her better since she and Antonio had gotten back together but something about that guy just didn't sit well with him. The first time she had brushed him off quite easily but now, he seemed to be coming back for more. Her looked as she turned to face him, fire in her eyes but he could see his hand on her elbow, not taking no for an answer.
"Antonio." His tone of voice got Antonio's attention quickly and he simply pointed in Brett's direction.
"What the hell?" Antonio watched as the guy put his hand on his girl and he saw red when she pulled her arm away and the guy didn't take the hint. He put his beer down on the table and walked their way. "Everything ok here?" The guy looked at him and smirked.
"This is a private conversation." He returned his look on Brett.
"A conversation this woman doesn't want anything to do with." He had now placed himself physically between his girl and that idiot. Sylvie pulled on his shirt gently and whispered to his ear.
"He's not worth it babe." Her words were slightly slurred but he took the hint behind them.
"If I ever see you in this bar again, I won't be so generous." He turned to take Sylvie away but the guy was stupid enough to try to turn Antonio around to confront him. Antonio easily grabbed hold of his arm and twisted, slamming his torso against the bar. "You little shit." Antonio was pissed now.
"Take your hands on me, this is assault. I'm going to call the cops."
"I am the cops." Antonio growled in his ear. "Christopher Herrmann." By now, everyone from 51 and the 21st had seen what had transpired.
"Go right ahead detective." Antonio pulled on him and held the pressure of the man's arm against his back, escorting him right to the door.
"If I ever see you near this bar again, you'll be charged with trespassing." And he simply pushed him outside, returning to check on Sylvie, who now had the girls around her, making sure she was ok.
"Hey." He simply said, getting Sylvie's attention right away.
"Take me home." She smiled at him before she hugged everyone and the two of them headed out the door, their evening far from over. "You know I can take care of myself right?" Her voice had a returned assurance back since they had left Molly's.
"I know but he wouldn't take the hint." Antonio had his arms around her as they exited the elevator at his floor. They stopped in the middle of the hall and Sylvie kissed him hard.
"I know." She pulled away slightly. "But the way you stepped in, that was hot." She pushed him gently the last few steps to his door.
"Is that so?" He flipped them around and pressed her back against the door, kissing her with passion. He fumbled with his keys as they kissed, his desire for her growing with every second. He managed to open it and push her inside, kicking the door shut with his foot. "How about I show you hot?" He kissed her again, placing his hand under her sweater.
"Go right ahead detective." She whispered against his lips before he pulled her sweater over her head and discarding it on the floor. They left a trail of clothes on the floor as they made it to his room where they fell against the bed.
"I love you." He whispered against her neck.
"I love you too." And they made love through the night, both exhausted as the sun came up.
A:N So here you have it. Next up will be a prequel piece about Sylvie starting to see Antonio in a different light. As always, please leave a review behind, I always love to know what your thoughts are. - Sarra
