Post - requiem
Danny stirred, he realised why as he felt the mattress shift. "I thought you weren't coming?" He asked sleepily whilst turning to face her.
"Then why did you leave the door unlocked?" CJ countered.
"Wishful thinking." He replied leaning in to kiss her.
"I see," CJ grinned and kissed him back. "Donna was asleep when I left, I mentioned earlier that I sometimes stay in the office overnight."
"So, still with the whole avoidance thing then?" Danny asked trying to appear as though it was a casual question.
"Danny," CJ warned, "I'm just not ready to explain this to anyone yet."
"Yet?"
"Yes, 'yet', I am planning on being ready at some point."
"Hmm."
"Hmm?"
"Yea. Well I guess I can go with that for now. So, are you okay? I mean with today, with Leo?" Danny asked, trying to make eye contact with her. Her eyes moved from her hand that was on his chest to his eyes. There she could see his concern for her.
"I think I'm okay, or at least I will be. I miss him, Danny."
Danny moved so his arm was around her and her head on his chest. He stroked her hair as he felt a few tears on his skin.
