BK Part 2
Lee walked into his apartment, dropping his keys on the coffee table as he sat down. He had just left the Agency. He had given his preliminary report and a partial debriefing; he will go into the Agency in the morning first thing to finish it up; maybe he will even ask Amanda to help type it since she was a part of the case as well.
Amanda. Now there was someone to think about; which he had been doing more and more often. He didn't understand her and he never really thought he would. This certainly has been one of those cases where she was in it before she even knew it. Once again he had left her for a few minutes and the one person she runs into was the man the Agency was watching and needed. Well it wasn't like Lee was blind; he knew how beautiful she was, she attracted men like honey does bees. No matter where they go whether it is on an assignment or out to lunch, men were always taking notice of her.
Lee changed out of his clothes and put on his night clothes and spoke out loud to no one, "Why wouldn't Amanda attract men? She is beautiful, she has those legs that go way up to meet that perfectly rounded bottom, her slim waist makes any gown she wears flow over her body, her hands are soft to hold while I dance with her; and then she had those sexy deep beautiful chocolate brown eyes a man could get lost in if they allowed themselves." Chocolate eyes made him think of hot chocolate; he thought he would make some to help him sleep.
She did really well on this case; considering all the inconveniences that he had to end up imposing on her by getting her involved and turning her dining room into a KGB command center. She annoyed me a little that morning, but it wasn't her fault; she is a morning person and I'm not. She tried to be quite but again we invaded her house not the other way around.
Finding out she was who Whitsett wanted as his mule was scary. He knew it even frightened Emily a little. Emily had come to be very fond of Amanda; hell everyone did once they got to know her a little. Lee didn't think there wasn't an agent at the office that wouldn't do anything for her; even Francine. Francine may complain about it, but she would help Amanda if necessary. She just had that effect on people; including him.
He sat thinking about all the effects she was starting to have on him. He looked forward to seeing her when he knew she was supposed to be working that no longer had to do with just doing his paperwork. He was becoming comfortable enough that he found it easy to joke more and cut up with. He opened up to her about things when he wouldn't with anyone; she was just easy to talk to.
He couldn't help but laugh out loud when he thought back to her expression on her face as she reached out and touched his beard from his disguise at the liquor store. She looked so disgusted by it he couldn't help but blow a kiss at her. Oh, he knew he would never get a kiss of any kind, cover or real, from Amanda King in that beard if her facial expression was any indication. Her genuine nature is one of the things he found intriguing about her.
It wasn't even a minute later that her face changed and she mentioned her family and he hadn't even had the team at her house to clean up the KGB from her dining room. They rushed from the store back to her house; Lee had Billy call the team to meet them at the house to get it all out.
Lee had half the team moving things out and loading the truck and the other half bringing Amanda's stuff back in. Amanda rushed him out the door to make a final check of things in the back just as her mother and the boys were coming in; thank goodness for Emily to help deflect their attention.
He turned and froze in his spot as Amanda and not her family opened the back to see if he was gone. "I almost dropped that damn picture and I wasn't going to pay to replace it." He said out loud. Amanda had shooed him away more than once and she looked so cute standing in her door looking like a teenager hiding her boyfriend from her parents.
"I wonder" he thought to himself as he cleaned his mug and headed to the bedroom to sleep.
