3. How cute they look when they sleep.

Mac Taylor stood at her office door giving off a sigh of relief. He was so anxious when he saw the light in her office, just as he was heading out. He did a back-take and found himself hurrying to her office. Now, he stands there, leaning at her doorway, his hands in his pockets, watching her chest rise and fall with her breathing as she dozes off in her chair, a case file open in front of her.

She looked so beautiful. It was a long time since he saw the calm and serenity now present in her face. It's as if sleep offers her the escape from all the troubles chasing her and that's what she needed right now, a place of safety where there are no dangers after her and nothing to worry about. When he saw her this past few days and seeing her now, reminded him of how emotionally vulnerable she can be. He knows that behind those close lids of hers is a spark of something in her that gives her the strength and the capability of enduring all of this but that doesn't stop him from having this 'hero-complex' when it comes to her. She hates that he worries himself about her and she keeps reminding him that she has gone through worse situations. He knows this. He knows that she is strong but that doesn't stop him from wanting to protect her and assuring her that she doesn't have to go through times like this alone because she will always have him. And he will always be there for her, just like she has always been there for him.

He moved from his position approaching her slowly not wanting to disturb her as he removed his blazer and laid it on top of her sleeping figure. He gazed at her as if memorizing the look he would always want to see on her beautiful face. He wished he could somehow bring even just some of that peace to her when she's awake. He tucked a stray hair behind her ear, letting his hand linger for a fraction of a second on her cheek.

"Sweet dreams, Stel."

He had closed the case file and turned off her desk lamp. He loosened his tie as he was heading for the other chair in her office, when he heard a soft "Sweet dreams, Mac."

He wasn't sure if she actually said it or not and he might as well could have imagined it because, taking into consideration the lateness of the hour and the amount of work he had done for the day, it was certainly a possibility. But nonetheless, imagined or not, it brought a smile to his lips as he settled on the chair waiting for sleep to arrive.

A/N: thanks for reading and to all those who reviewed my previous chapters thank you very much. :D

CSINYPanther: sorry if I didn't put up a Hawkes story yet. i'm still 'researching' on his character so that it wouldn't be too OOC. but i did already have a chapter reserved for him it just might take a little while for me to post it coz it's like a latter reason. :D

Nienna Tinehtele: I already have a draft for the Flack/Angell chapter but it's a latter reason so it might take some time for me to post it. and how about an Adam/Stella because I haven't yet seen a Adam/Angell and since this is purely fluff I am somewhat getting inspiration from those little moments from the show but I will try my best to write one.

Miss Poisonous: thanks! And I'm glad that you liked it. :D
