I'm back! :D (not sure how many of you are happy about that, though..)

Yup, this is yet another post-ep tag. This time it's for S06E15- True Grits.

Enjoy!

True… love

"Gus, look man. It's not really the first time we were bummed out of striking it rich- remember the bounty hunters case?" Pause. "Okay, maybe, yeah," Pause. "What?"

Juliet smiled to herself as she stepped into Shawn's apartment. Her boyfriend was obviously consoling Gus about losing the ten grand- they hadn't been able to track Thane's car down earlier. Following his voice, she found Shawn perched on the kitchen counter beside bags of Chinese takeout, his iPhone glued to his right ear as he continued talking to his best friend.

"Don't go all suicidal on me like that time in 9th grade when you learnt that Care Bears was going to stop showing… Just do more of your drug smuggling-slash-trafficking business… Face it Gus, that's the truth… I don't get why you have to be so- Jules!" He realized her presence for the first time. "Sorry buddy gotta go!"Shawn hung up on Gus and jumped off the counter, encircling Juliet in a hug which she gladly reciprocated.

"Gus is still hung up about the money, huh?"

"Like you wouldn't believe. I'm telling you Jules, you might need to put that guy on suicide watch."

"That bad?"

'Worse, actually. Sure he'll be fine eventually, though. Bounces back like one of those slime balls. So… I remembered to TiVo The Voice!" Shawn changed the subject, eager to get as far away from the case as possible, and get on his girlfriend's good books again.

"Really?" Juliet raised an eyebrow, suspicious at Shawn's over eagerness to move on, but the only response she got was a quick peck on the lips and Shawn dragging her along to the couch.

An episode of The Voice, uncountable comments about the contestants and a not uncommon dinner of takeout later, Shawn and Juliet found themselves lying on the couch with the TV off, just reveling in the company of the other- something they had painfully missed during the case.

Juliet shifted, rising up her shirt by a miniscule amount. Shawn, however, never the one to miss a slightest wrong, immediately noticed the blue-black coloration on the stomach that peeked out ever-so-slightly.

"Just when were you going to tell me that you were hurt in that crash?" Shawn's tone which had been playful and cheery just seconds ago took a very serious turn.

Juliet, not realizing that he had seen her bruising replied with a simple "Huh?"

Slightly aggravated at this point, Shawn lifted her shirt higher and touched the bruise gently. "This, Jules. When were you going to tell me? It's obviously from the crash- fits the gearbox shape perfectly."

"Shawn, come on. It's nothing, really. I can barely feel it anyway." Juliet hurriedly pulled her shirt back down- the last thing she had wanted was for Shawn to see the bruise (which hurt a fair bit, actually) and start treating her like she was so fragile, the way he had after the last Yin/Yang thing, though she had always suspected that that had more to do with guilt than anything else.

"Sure looks like nothing," he muttered. Juliet sighed and turned to face him, wincing as she hit the tender part of the stomach on the armrest.

"Shawn, you got to stop worrying so much about me. I'm fine."

"What kind of a question is that, Jules? I'm you boyfriend, for heaven's sake. If I don't worry about you, then what have I got to worry about?" He pressed a kiss to the top of her head and she melted into his touch.

"But seriously, are you hurt anywhere else too? You gotta tell me, you know that right?"

Juliet rolled her eyes, knowing that he wouldn't be able to see it. "I'm okay."

"Yeah, that's what you said last time too. No offense, but I don't really tru-" Juliet cut off her boyfriend by kissing him desperately, an action he responded to with equal, if not more, fervor. The make out session was cut short, however, when Shawn, out of familiarity, pressed his hands against Juliet's waist, causing her pull back with a small yelp- an action followed by a string of apologies by Shawn.

"You know," Juliet tried to calm her boyfriend down, "I do have some good news for you."

Shawn perked up immediately. "It wouldn't happen to include a check for ten thousand bucks, would it?"

Juliet smiled at him, shaking a head unbelievably. "No, not that, but this should make you rather happy too. Chief forced Carlton to take medical leave for a week, so she agreed to let you two in on this new case I got earlier today."

"Really? So if I 'accidentally' mess up Gus' drug trading schedule for this week, then we get to do it together?" His voice became lower as he whispered the rest into her ear. "All alone?"

"That doesn't work out Shawn, you know that." Juliet pushed her boyfriend away playfully, reminding him of the case they had done the previous year, when their respective work partners were too busy tap dancing to help.

"Yeah," Shawn wrapped his arms around her from behind, "but that was before this, before us. Whadya say we give it a try?"

Juliet almost fell for it, but managed to catch herself before agreeing to something she… might not actually regret. "No. Shawn, no." She squirmed to get out of his grip on her which was honestly getting too hard to resist with each second.

"Fine," he huffed and released her, playing the 'hurt boyfriend' card only too well. It worked- Juliet turned around to kiss him gently.

"But I guess it wouldn't hurt to make sure that Gus is more occupied with other things for most part of the case," she hinted suggestively.

"That's my girl." Shawn smiled and tried to kiss her, but she held him a short distance away.

"You were saying that this case was like the bounty hunters case a few years back?" Juliet whispered, her face close enough to Shawn's to feel his breath on his skin. "How 'bout we end it the same way too?"

Shawn sucked in his breath sharply before replying. "No way in hell, Jules. We are so going to up the game tonight." With that, he carried to the bedroom, her legs already winding around his waist and threw both of them onto the bed.

Let's just say that Gus didn't get anymore impromptu money counseling from Shawn that night...

Yay :D

I was thinking of doing a sequel where the trio solve the case Juliet just got (more like Gus tries not to be too obvious a third wheel). Should I?

Reviews=love, and with Psych ending soon, I need all the love I can get to get myself through till season 7:D
