Andy took a deep breath and knocked on Sharon's door. They had finished their case earlier in the afternoon. Andy had went home, took a quick shower and even had the chance to took a nap. He had wanted to be fresh for tonight. Emily had texted him when she had been at the airport. "About to check in. See you and mom in a few hours. XO – Emily." He had answered her immediately. "Yes ! Be safe. XO – Andy".
His toughts were interrupted when Sharon opened her door. She laughed when she saw him and he raised his eyebrows.
"We match" she said and she was right. Andy had a cream tie and a white shirt, Sharon had her cream dress that Andy liked very much.
Andy shook his head and bent down to kiss her, "We do."
"I'll go finish my hair. I'll be right back." Sharon said. She kissed him one more time before making her way back to her bathroom. Andy watched her go and checked his watched : they still had 10 minutes before they needed to leave for the airport. Plenty of time.
Andy walked to her bathroom too and leaned against the door frame, watching Sharon while she finished curling her hair.
"Did Rusty leave okay ?" Andy asked her.
She smile and nodded. "Yeah, I think he was really happy actually".
Andy hummed and came behind Sharon, placing his hands on her hips. She smiled at him in the mirror and she turned off her curling iron. She turned in his arms to face him.
"I'm ready."
"You're beautiful."
"Thank you." She blushed and looked down at her feet, bare for the moment and Andy liked that because she was smaller than in her heels. Andy didn't take his gaze from her face and pushed her gently against the sink. When her back hit it she looked up at him and blushed. Andy grinned and lowered up his face to her neck, underneath her hair. She hummed when his lips made contact with her soft skin and moaned when she felt his tongue teasing her. She throw her head back and let him kissed her until she couldn't take it anymore. She pulled at his hair gently and made him looked at her. She smiled at him again and pulled him into a kiss. They teased each others lips until Andy knew that they had to stop. When Andy pushed against her hips to break their contact, Sharon's face was flushed, so was Andy's but he felt sightly embarassed when he saw Sharon's gaze on a certain part of his anatomy that had reacted to how close they had been.
"Hmm… I think you should do your lipstick again…" he said to her.
She diverted her gaze to look up at him and she laughed.
"I think you should too, actually." Sharon said to him.
He smiled and let her turn around. Her lipstick was smuged all around her lips and almost on her chin. Andy's face was not better, he had red on his lips and underneath his nose too because Sharon had this little habit that Andy had not complain with ; each time they kissed she concentrated her kisses on his upper lip, which was fine with him because then he could concentrate his on her bottom one.
Sharon ran her hands in her hair to try to smooth it, so was Andy. When they gazed at eatch other they both laughed. He took her hand in his and led her back in her living room. When she was in front of him, he put one hand on her shoulder and the other on her neck, on top of her hair.
"Sharon, do you trust me ?" He asked her.
"Of course ! With my life Andy." She answered quickly putting a hand on his cheek.
"That's great. Because I have a little surprise for you but I have to blindflod you." He looked at her face while saying it and saw her eyes opening wide.
"Blindfloding me ?" She repeated.
"Yes. We will close the door, take the elevator and when we'll be in my car, I'll put a blindflod on your eyes and drive to where your surprise is waiting for you."
"Okay." Said Sharon carefully.
"Alright. But we have to go now if we don't want to be late."
Sharon nodded and followed Andy. She locked her door and took his hand in hers. She pushed the button of the elevator.
"You're nervous." Andy said.
"A little. But I trust you." She said looking at him.
He guided her to his car and opened the door for her. When he sat down in the driver's seat, he took the black blindfold and looked at her.
"You're still okay with that ?"
She bit her lips and nodded. She turned her head to allow him to put it on her. Sharon felt his hand in her hair trying to not undo her hair. When he was done he let his hands dropped to her shoulders. Sharon felt a shiver all over her body, feeling his hands on her without being able to see him was thrilling and … exciting.
"Okay ! Here we go."
She heard him starting the engine and she took a deep breath to calm her nerves and the knot of excitement in her stomach.
When Andy had the engine securely on the road, he took Sharon's hand in his across the car console. She quickly relaxed with his hand in hers on her lap. Andy tried to talked to her on the way to the airport. When he finaly parked and stopped the car, he could feel Sharon tensed again.
"We're here."
"May I take it off?" Sharon asked, her fingertips against the black fabric.
"Not now if it's alright. But it's almost finish, don't worry." He smiled when he saw Sharon pouting and couldn't resist the urge to drop a kiss on her full lips. She jumped, sightly startled but smiled.
"Don't move. I'm coming to open your door."
Sharon nodded and heard Andy's door closing. She took a steady breath. The fact that she was probably minutes away from her surprise a,d still blindfloded made the knot in her stomach returned. She heard her door opening again and Andy took her hand in his to guide her out of the car. Sharon also felt one of his hand on her hair to prevent her from banging her head against the roof of the car.
"I feel like a murder suspect." She whispered.
"Don't worry Mrs. Raydor, you're not in trouble, as long as you stay with me." He dropped a kiss to her cheek and put an arm around her waist to help her walk.
Sharon was clunging Andy's other hand afraid to fall, even if she knew that he wouldn't do anything to hurt her. She could hear people walking around her and talking. It seemed like a big place. A mall maybe.
Andy continued to guide her before stopping. He let go of her hand and put with the other on her waist.
"Okay, we're good." Andy said into her ear, "Your surprise will be right in front of you. I'm gonna let you go, wait 5 seconds before taking the blindfold off. Then, look straight ahead of you, alright?"
Sharon nodded and felt Andy dropped two quick kisses in her hair. And then his hands left her body. She was alone and blindfolded and she had no idea of where she was.
She took a deep breath.
One.
Two.
Three.
Four.
Another deep breath.
Five.
She took the black fabric between her hands and took it off. She looked straight in front of her but could still see Andy in the corner of her eye. She was in an airport. Alright. But what was she waiting for?
Sharon was about to turn back to Andy when she spotted a familiar figure in the crowd. A woman with long black hair was heading quickly to her, tears running down her cheeks.
"Emily." Sharon gasped.
TBC...
