A/N: So, what did you think of my last chapter? Was it bad? (Oh my god? XD) Well, I'm in the mood of writing today, so another one will be uploaded today :) Enjoy!
"Casey.. Casey, wake up.. We have to go to work." it seemed to sound miles away, but it didn't take long to make Casey realize it was Alex. "Casey, you slept through the alarm. I already made breakfast, but you have to get up now."
But Casey didn't want to get up. She was sore. Her whole body ached. So that's the prize you have to pay when you want good sex, huh? Her head hurt so much. She laid her arm over her eyes, to protect herself from the sun, because she couldn't handle the light.
"Casey, you have to go to work. You have been back for one day after a week off yet, so you can't afford another day off." Alex sat down next to Casey on the bed.
"Don't talk so loud, please. My head.. My legs.. they're so sore." she checked her arms. The scarves had left some streaks and bruises. She felt terrible. But she thought of why she was aching so much now. The best sex she ever had. She smiled at the thought.
"What are you smiling at?" Alex asked, not understanding why she was grinning out of the sudden.
"Oh, nothing. I was just thinking about yesterday."
Alex grinned. "Yeah. You dozed off pretty quick though. You must have been exhausted, because I was able to change the sheets without waking you. And you know how messy that goes with me doing that."
Casey chuckled. "You're one of a kind. A normal person would have just let it be and slept with me, but you had to clean it up."
"You don't understand! It was soaking wet." Alex smirked.
"Yeah, thanks to you. But I love you did it anyway." She kissed Alex tender. She breathed Alex's scent.
"I have to shower. I must smell pretty bad, right?"
"No. But I would have taken a shower with you, if my legs weren't so sore. My god, how am I supposed to get in court this way?" she grinned. "Ms. Cabot, I must admit.. you are pretty good at what you're doing."
"What if I run a bath for you?" Alex smiled. "You can eat, while I run it. We have time."
"That seems like a good idea to me." Casey tried to get up, squeezing her eyes closed. Her muscles were so freaking sore. She would almost regret it, but she didn't. It was too good. She held on to that thought when she staggered to the kitchen to eat. A minute or ten later she was finished and she stumbled to the bathroom. Nice scent filled the air and Alex sat on the edge of the bathtub.
"Ready to get in?" she asked.
"If you go with me." Casey replied.
"Yeah, I figured, so I didn't shower." she grinned. Alex stepped into the bathtub first, so Casey could sit with her back against Alex. Casey nuzzled her cheek against Alex's chest and Alex wrapped her arms around Casey.
"Can't we stay in this tub for the rest of the day?" Casey asked, her eyes closed. "I'm a little less sore this way."
"Oh, I thought it was because you have the breasts of an incredibly hot blonde ADA pressed against your back." Casey could tell Alex was smirking right now.
"I take it into a count." she teased.
Casey enjoyed the silence and the warmth and the touch of the ADA, this time nothing sexually about it. Casey liked the fact they could be intimate without being sexual. She ran the top of her finger across Alex's knee, thinking about their moments together. They practically lived with each other. Since their night in Alex's office, they stayed with each other for almost every night.
"Alex?"
"Yes, sweetie?" Alex asked, who seemed to be drifted off in her thoughts.
"What are you thinking about?"
"I love you." she smiled against Casey's back, while she hugged Casey from behind.
"I love you too."
Casey wanted to ask Alex to move in with her, but she didn't. It was too soon. They were only together for a few months. She didn't know her that well. Or did she? Anyway, she didn't meet her parents or something. It was just too soon. Although, moving in was just another step in their relationship and nothing scary. Or was it? They were together. They lived together. The only thing that changed was the fact that they had to call it 'their apartment' instead of 'my apartment'. And the fact that either Alex's place or her place would be 'infected' by each other's stuff.
"How about I meet your parents? Do you have any siblings?" Casey asked.
"Hmm. I don't know if you want to meet them. They think that me being gay is a disgrace. I can only visit them if I don't talk about relationship or something. In other words, that I hide that I'm gay."
"Oh, Alex, I didn't know that. Why didn't you tell me?"
"Because I don't care about them. I stopped caring about them a long time ago. They made my puberty a living hell. I couldn't be dating girls, so I had this secret relationship with what I told them was my best friend. But this day they caught me kissing her in my bedroom. They kicked her out and told her she wasn't allowed to step one foot in our house anymore. Right after that I left them. I visit them sometimes on holidays, but that's only because they're my family, not because I like them. I have one younger sister. Her name is Taylor, and she accepts me. She actually helped me hide my relationship from my parents. She was the first one I told about my sexual orientation. She's nice, but she lives in Seattle, so I don't see her so much."
"I'm sorry, Alex."
"Well, yeah, you can't help it. My parents are rich, they care about their image."
"Can I meet your sister?"
"I guess. But it's a long trip. Or I can invite her. Or we can invite your brother and my sister at the same time. They would like each other, I guess." Alex suggested.
"Sounds like a good idea to me." Casey turned around her head to give a quick peck on Alex's nose. "I'll call Chris tonight to ask. If you call your sister.."
"Deal. I think it's time to leave the bath, Case. We have to go to work."
Casey thought she might never say it, but she said it too soon. She wasn't in the mood to get up. It was way too cosy and nice over there. She moaned.
"Do I have to?"
"Yes." Alex said with a stern look.
"Whoa, I'm scared." Casey joked. "I'm not surprised they call you the Ice Queen, Cabot."
Alex shot a fake glare at Casey, but she saw she was having a hard time to keep up that face, so it was a weird mix between a smirk and a glare. Casey had to laugh.
"Fine, I will get up. But I don't look forward to the fact that I have to wear long-sleeves when it's eighty degrees outside."
"Yeah, but wearing short sleeves would be so appropriate, since everybody is able to see that you had great sex last night." Alex circled Casey wrist with her finger.
"Okay, you're right. I don't want people to know. Maybe they would steel you from me. I want you to stay mine." Casey tried to look seriously, but Alex smirked.
"Liz is gonna love your bruises on your wrists. You remember when she called my bite-mark nice?" Alex smirked.
"Oh, you bet I remember. That was so awkward. And inappropriate. I don't want that to happen with me this time."
"Well, go get your ass out of the tub and get dressed!" Alex yelled, but she smirked so she was teasing Casey.
"You're unbelievable." Casey sighed.
A/N: I'm aware of the fact that I state Casey slept through the alarm and they go sit in the tub for a while, but I don't care. They are bad-ass. ^^
