I don't own any of the characters except Jamie!

Their first kiss was sweet. It didn't last long, but it felt good.

When they broke away, Jamie smiled at Neal, a little breathless, Neal smiled back. "Well," he said, "are you hungry?"

Jamie laughed, "Yeah, lets eat."

After they had sat down and begun eating, it was Jamie spoke up, "So, how did you get this deal of yours?"

"Well...I broke out a few months before my sentence was over."

"And Peter caught you again?"

"Yes, lets just say I wasn't running when he found me."

Jamie sighed, "Someday, when your ready, tell me your story."

Neal nodded, "I don't try to be guarded, well I do, but not with you. Its just..."

Jamie took Neal's hand, "I understand, when you're ready, I'll be here."

Neal smiled and nodded.

"So! What can you tell me about your current case?"

Neal laughed at Jamie's excitement, "I can tell you we're trying to recover two stolen Jasper Johns, unfortunately we're coming up empty. I love all kinds of art, but I know more about Renaissance paintings than modern ones."

"Hmmm...Jasper Johns? Do you mind showing me the paintings?" Neal shook his head and went to get the file.

When Neal came back he handed her the two pictures, and Jamie studied them for a bit, and soon a wave of confusion crossed her face.

"What?"

"Neal, one of these isn't a real Jasper Johns it looks like a well done imitation."

"Which one?"

"The flag, it doesn't have newspaper..."

"Not all of his painting had newspaper below the paint though."

"True, but his flag paintings did, look."

Neal examined the painting closely. He had noticed the newspaper wasn't as apparent as it should be but put it off as the photograph's angle. Now he realized what he thought was newspaper was really brush strokes.

"Well, that changes everything," he muttered."Jamie? Would you mind coming to the FBI building tomorrow? Peter wants to talk to you anyway, now that you know...but I think you may be a help to the investigation."

Jamie smiled, "I'd be happy to."

The next day

"Hard at work?"

Neal looked up at Jamie, "I see you go in okay."

"Apparently someone told the guard I was welcome, all I had to show was ID..."

"Oh did I? I must've let it slip..."

Jamie smiled and Neal smiled back, "Ready to meet Peter?"

Jamie looked at Neal apprehensively.

"Don't be nervous okay? He'll love you, he just wants to make sure you don't tell anyone. He's not scary," Neal leaned in and whispered, "he's actually kind of a dork."

Jamie laughed nervously and Neal took her hand, "Come on."

When they reached the top of the stairs, Neal knocked on the door. Peter looked up saw Neal, then Jamie, and smiled, gesturing for them to come in. "Jamie Road, Agent Peter Burke. Peter, this is...this is Jamie."

"Its nice to meet you," Jamie said, shaking Peter's hand.

"You too, please sit down."

After they were seated Peter began talking, he warned Jamie how she now had special clearance because she knows about Neal, and made sure she knew the dire importance that she didn't tell anyone. Jamie's eyes widened and she would nod every once in a while.

When Peter was done, Jamie spoke up, "Uh, wow, Neal, you're an important secret."

Peter laughed, "Yes he is, but I'm glad he got to tell you. I hate lying to my wife, I know how he felt."

Jamie smiled and Neal spoke up, "Well now that the hard part's out of the way, Peter, I have something to tell you." Confusion crossed Peter's face as Neal continued, "I told Jaime a little about our current case and she made me realize that the second Johns is a fake," pointing at the picture, he said, "see, thats paint, not newspaper."

Peter took a closer look, "Neal, you're right!" He stood up, "I need to talk to Jones, thank you, Jamie, for your help. Maybe, you and Neal and El and I can go out sometime."

"That'd be great. See you soon."

Peter nodded and looked at Neal, "You can walk her out, but I'll need you back here, we might have to pay Mr. Astor a visit later."

"He didn't say how far I could walk you out," Neal said winking. Jamie laughed and took Neal's hand, walking out the office.
