Heads up to all the people who noticed the Alan Shore line in the last chapter, I forgot to put this in the last chapter notes.
Ready for some angst, anger and jealousy?! Nope, tough here it comes!
Enjoy!
Disclaimer: I now own a hamster… does that count? No but seriously I do not own The Blacklist or any characters featured, I'm just simply having a play about with them.
The next morning Lizzie found herself in a sensitive state with the one Raymond Reddington standing over her with a cup of coffee.
"Here, thought you'd need this." He handed her the cup and walked off.
"Thank you!" She shouted through the house.
She knew just the right thing to help with her god awful hangover, she'd found this particular routine quite suiting while at the academy.
She changed into her vest top and shorts, grabbed a bottle of water and went out for a run.
Red was watching her and couldn't help but wonder if she remembered much of last night.
But got immediatley distracted byt the way her shorts tightly hugged her long, luscious looking legs, and left him wanting more and more of Lizzie.
With Liz out of the house he decided to plot a way for her to come to him. She'd probably hate him for it but she'd finally come to him.
She came back, showered and grabbed another cup of coffee and found that she was ready for the day.
She found Red sat in the lounge reading a newspaper with Bach playing in the background. She sat down in the chair opposite to him and crossed her legs. Her long, delicious legs. He thought.
"So, are we going to be adults about what happened last night? Be open and honest?"
"I suppose that could be a good route, though as I'm sure you're aware I do enjoy a good off road wonder every now and then." Ok and out comes Mr. Cocky again. Clearly seeing that Lizzie wasn't impressed with his answer he answered again. "What happened, happened, we've been with each other 24/7 for a good amount of time now, sexual tensions got high and I apologize for going down that rabbit hole."
"Wasn't too hard right?"
"You'll have to specify sweetheart, something is very hard right now." He winked, got up and vacated the lounge.
What was that?! Am I supposed to follow him?!
After lying in bed for a good couple of hours, Liz decided to actually move from it. She decided that she would attempt to make dinner for her and Red, he was always making dinner and cleaning up. It was only fair that she started contributing, she strolled down to the kitchen and checked what was in.
As she was making the starter, a simple tomato harissa soup, she saw Red walk out of the house. She didn't think much of it at first, until after about half an hour later when he arrived back with a female friend attached to him.
Really, just last night he was saying he'd never do something like this and now he's practically prancing her through the house like a realtor.
"Elizabeth, meet my friend… erm… Rebecca. Rebecca this is Elizabeth, she's my maid."
No he didn't. He did not just say that.
Bitch face activated.
"Hi Rebecca, please try to make as little mess as possible, as you can imagine Mr. Reddington here gets quite the amount of women up in his bedroom and the cleanliness can get quite something." and with that Liz walked off on to the decking.
"Don't mind her, she's just been through quite a struggle recently and unfortunately, this is how she expresses it. I'm sure you don't believe those horrific things she was saying do you sweetheart?"
The tall brunette looked at Red with wide eyes and a lost and confused look on her face.
"Are we going to your bedroom or not?"
"Such the fine attitude Rebecca, follow me."
It would be quite fair to say that Liz was fuming.
The soup is staying where it is, I am going changing into not much clothing and I am going to bathe in the pool for a while and calm down. When I come back I am going to order take out.
Even in the pool she could hear.
Hear him and her.
After a painstaking half an hour the noises stopped, which were then swiftly followed by Red leading her to the door.
As Red led Rebecca upstairs he knew he'd angered Liz so much that she would end up dropping what she was doing and going by the pool. Perfect. He thought to himself.
Rebecca entered the room before Red and set up her station. Yes that was right, she was preparing to give Red a massage.
Red decided to rub salt in the wound and try and find Liz, he found her out by the pool wearing nothing but bikini underwear.
"Well now, isn't that a nice view."
She ignored him.
"Lizzie, you're going to have to speak to me at one point." He sat down opposite her and simply waited.
She ignored him.
Again.
He got up and left.
Thank god! What else do I have to do for him to get the hint.
The silence didn't last long though. Red returned with drinks, he placed one down near her and slowly drank his own.
"Are you really going to ignore me?"
"My god Red, what do I have to do around here to get a bit of alone time?!"
"Go take a bath?"
"Not funny! Did you have fun just now?"
"You'll have to be more specific Lizzie, I'm always having a blast."
"You know what i'm talking about, did you have fun with your friend?"
"Oh, could you not hear? I was under the impression you could, and from what you heard, if you could in fact hear then you would have known that I had a splendid time." He stands and she can't quite figure out why but she stands also.
"There was no need in that whatsoever Red!" Oh boy now was she angry.
"In what sweetheart? Satisfying my needs?"
"Don't call me that!"
And all of a sudden, they were both just inches away from each other.
"What? 'Sweetheart'?"
"Yes, I think you've lost your right to call me that!"
"And why would that be?" smirk, smirk and more smirk.
"You said just last night that you wouldn't do that and what did you do today, you fucking did it!"
"Would my sweetheart be incorrectly jealous?" Slowly and with each word he seemed to get closer and closer to her face.
"Am I balls jealous!" and with that, she pinned him to the closest wall and kissed him.
She kissed him.
It was heated and messy and angry.
"That's just how not jealous I am!"
They still remained close, just inches apart and Red decided to see how far he could push this. "Oh yeah? Still seems pretty jealous to me, why don't you just show me how not jealous you are?" As he spoke he made his way to her ear and whispered the last few words while his lips slowly ghosted over her ear.
