Cal spent the whole of the next morning plotting. Gillian was tied up in meetings until after 12 and he had a free morning with nothing to do except flick paper at the walls. Well, he could have been signing off on cases but that would leave him no late night paperwork to do and his late night paper work always seemed to coincide with her late night paperwork. Those late nights were even more appealing to him now.

OXOXOXOXO

By midday he was bored. Gillian still wasn't back and Loker and Torres were being suspiciously quiet. He knew they were working on some case that he had briefly glanced over and said 'ok' to. He hadn't a clue what it was to do. Chances were he would find out when something went seriously wrong on it. He picked up the phone.

"Heidi? When Dr Foster comes in, tell her I want to see her in my office, would you? Thanks."

OXOXOXOXO

Gillian Foster had managed to keep the paperwork to a minimum today, so much so that she was able to open the door into the Lightman building by herself. She was just at the lift when Heidi called across to her that Cal wanted to see her.

"Ok thanks Heidi." She smirked to herself. Wonder what he wants…

OXOXOXOXO

Cal was in his study when he heard his office door opening and the tip-tap of her high heels. He grinned as he heard them come closer and he stepped up off the couch.

"Cal?" she called out, wondering if maybe he'd disappeared in a huff because she'd taken so long. She didn't see his arm extend from the study until it had pulled her inside, pushing her against the book ladder. She shrieked at the contact but it soon turned to a laugh and she hoped none of their staff had heard her. Before she had the chance to say anything his lips came down on hers and she responded by wrapping her hands around the back of his neck pulling him in as he pushed her until she was perched on the fifth step of the ladder.

"What took you so bloody long?" he asked between kisses on her neck.

"Someone has to keep this company afloat." He bit her on the remark.

"Ow! Cal, stop biting me!" he grinned at this and used his tongue to glaze over the bruised skin. Gillian pushed him back and looked down at it, pulling her blouse back into place.

"Well at least it's under the shirt this time." She smirked and he frowned, looking around for the one he'd given her last night. She saw what he was doing.

"Extremely good concealer Cal. Do me a favour, figure out if the company's CEO is lying then buy some shares in it." He grinned at her, stepping back into her, pushing her legs apart.

"Right you are love." He kissed her again just as his phone rang in his pocket. Gillian groaned this time.

"You have had more calls in the last 24 hours than you ever get" she said, irritation seeping through her voice. Cal pulled out the phone, looked at it and threw his eyes up to heaven.

"Yeah and all from the one person. I think she can sense when I'm happy or something…" Gillian caught his eye on this phrase but he instinctively looked down, answering the phone.

"Zoe, you know this could actually be bordering on harassment. You didn't call me this much when we were married for God's sake!" Gillian smirked and moved to slip out from Cal's clutches but his hand shot to her waist, holding her in place.

"Now Cal, is that any way to greet your ex-wife?" He could hear the smirk on her face. She was the only woman he knew who could vocalise a smirk so well.

"Well in my country we usually greet them with a shotgun but you lot haven't caught onto that over here yet…" He couldn't help kissing the smile off Gillian's face.

"Well, English customs aside, your secretary has gone missing so I'm just calling to tell you I'm letting myself up." Cal blinked.

"You're here? Now?"

"Yes Cal. What's the problem, you have a hot date?" Cal smirked at his ex-wife's remark.

"As a matter of fact I do." Gillian smiled at him but Zoe's next remark wiped it off her face.

"Tell Gillian I said 'hi'. I'll be up in five minutes." Cal bit his bottom lip, fighting back laughter but he couldn't do it. Gillian shook her head as she dislodged herself from the ladder. The next half hour was going to be pure torture.

OXOXOXOXO

Ok, short chapter but I have an idea of where I'm going with it so watch this space. R+R
