Adam grunted a little. He was close. His eyes were closed as he stood in the shower. One hand rested against the tile wall. The other was handling his equipment. He smirked a little at the realization that it might be awhile before he needed to do this just to blow off steam. It had become a regular part of his routine these past few weeks. He had felt like a teenage boy, or at least as on edge as he felt when he was transitioning in college! He was constantly horny and constantly thinking of Fiona. The two certainly went hand in hand.
Tonight was the night. There would be no more waiting. He could finally be with her the way he wanted to for so long! As he thought about the things he wanted to do to her, Adam's breath quickened. In his mind, he pictured her breasts. Imagined kissing, licking, and sucking on them. He imagined running his hands down her body, exploring her soft curves. And he thought of how good it would feel to pull her close, bring her hips to his, and thrust inside of her.
"Uh!" Adam groaned as he climaxed hard. The intensity of it left his body feeling drained. He continued to lean against the wall as he caught his breath. The spray of the water felt soothing on his skin.
Several minutes later, he stepped out of the shower and toweled off. He quickly shaved and washed his face again. Once he was done, Adam left the bathroom feeling refreshed.
"Happy Endings?" a voice questioned.
Adam looked up and spotted Gregory sitting on the couch.
"What?" he responded sharply.
Gregory turned to him. "Our DVR. I can't believe we have a recording of 'Happy Endings'! It's a terrible show!" he complained. On Fridays he worked from home, so he was leisurely eating a bowl of cereal as he sat in front of the TV.
Adam smirked. He hadn't recorded it, so it had to be Fiona's pick!
"I know you have to side with your girlfriend, but deep down you hate it too!" Gregory continued.
Adam shook his head. "I'll take you word for it, man!" He had never seen it before. These days he and Fiona didn't watch much TV together. They were usually preoccupied with each other. "And just so you know, I am still capable of independent thought!"
Gregory laughed. "Good to know!"
Adam nodded and walked into his room. He shut the door behind him and sighed. Masturbating in the shower was necessary for him to get through the day. Due to the server issue he had a 16 hour shift ahead of him and he shuddered at the thought of being on edge for so many hours. Still, being caught doing so would be embarrassing! He was happy he hadn't!
As he looked around his room, Adam couldn't help but smile! Tonight Fiona Coyne was going to be in his bed. She would be naked, as would he. And they would be fucking – if he wasn't too tired…
He slightly frowned at the thought. He had cursed his luck plenty of times since Wednesday! He wanted their first time together in seven years to be magical. He wanted to make love to her with all the passion he had inside for her. She was the one for him! The woman he wanted to spend the rest of his life with! She was everything to him and he burned for her with every fiber of his being! He wanted to show her that love in a physical way, so it bothered him that their first time might not be all he wanted it to be.
His eyes fell upon a picture of his love that was on his nightstand. On the days she wasn't here, it was one of the first things he saw when he woke up. Though it was still early, he wanted to speak to her. To tell her how much he loved her. He went to the window by the bed and picked up his phone. It had been charging on the window sill. He decided to send a text.
** Morning princess. Thinking of u. Hope u have a great day! – Adam T. **

Fiona had a huge grin as she shut down her computer. It was half past Noon and she was heading out for the day. She had worked a half day, as she usually did on Fridays. She had put in additional hours this week, so all of her work was done. There were no loose ends. She had crossed every 't' and dotted every 'i'.
"I can't believe you guys lasted a whole month!" Lynn commented aloud.
Fiona chuckled. "I would expect Laura to say that, but I thought you were on my side!" she responded in jest.
Lynn shrugged. "Well, I already lost the bet. I had you down for three weeks."
"I put down twenty days," George chimed in.
"Two weeks!" Kai laughed.
"Three and half weeks," Hanna admitted.
Fiona looked at her amused. "Et tu Brutus?"
Hanna laughed. She had held off placing a bet until recently. "Well, after Saturday I didn't think you'd make it," she explained.
Laura's ears perked up. "What happened on Saturday?" she asked curiously.
Fiona sent Hanna a pointed look before turning to their employee. "It was nothing."
Laura smirked at her unconvinced. "Uh huh…"
"She's right," Hanna backed her. "It was just a case of wandering hands," she deadpanned.
Fiona playfully narrowed her eyes as they all laughed.
"I guess no one won," Jessica surmised. It was a shame because over the past month it had amounted to a good pot of money.
Hanna shook her head. She had been in charge of keeping tally. There had been a few anonymous bets made. "Someone placed a bet that they would last the whole month."
"Who was it?" Laura asked curiously. She had asked around and as far as she knew no one had thought they would actually make it!
Fiona smirked. "Thanks for the free dinner everyone! Adam and I will definitely enjoy it!"
Originally they had meant to keep it quiet, but Hanna told Fiona about how they taking bets and she decided to get in on it. While she certainly didn't need the money, there was something satisfying about beating them at their own game!

Fiona had another huge smile as she walked up the steps to Adam's apartment. She had just emerged from a cab. She was carrying two bags with her for the weekend. Since leaving work she had made a number of stops. She met up with her brother for lunch, and spent time with him and Finlay. Afterward, she spent a relaxing afternoon at a day spa. Following that she went home, where she took a short nap.
Now she was here, looking forward to the night ahead! It was still early in the evening, at around just 6:30PM. Adam wasn't due to return for another eight hours or so! But he assured her it was fine to come by earlier and hang out there. She had a few recorded shows on their DVR so it wouldn't be too bad. Plus he had made pasta con chorizo yesterday and there were leftovers of the delicious meal in the fridge!
As she came to the door she fished for the key he had given her. Not long after they returned from Boston he had copies made for her. She was moved beyond words at the gesture, because she hadn't been expecting it.
When she opened the door she noticed that the lights were on.
"Hello?" she said as she closed it behind her. She heard footsteps and wondered if Adam got off of work early.
"Hey Fiona!" Gregory said in a cheery voice as he came around the corner. He continued into the kitchen. "I thought you were Adam," he remarked as he opened the fridge.
She smirked at the irony. "I guess he's still at work."
"That makes sense!" Gregory agreed as he grabbed a chocolate and vanilla pudding cup.
She nodded and stuffed down her feelings of disappointment. He would join her soon enough…
"Don't take this the wrong way, but I'm surprised to see you here," Fiona told him.
Gregory chuckled. "Can't wait to get me out of your hair, right?" he joked.
"Exactly!" she teased.
They both laughed.
"I was going to take the 3:30PM train to Jersey, but after Adam told me he was working late I decided to wait until my buddy Holt gets out of work. I'm hanging with him and my high school friends this weekend, so he's going to give me a lift there," Gregory explained.
"Oh, that's good!" Fiona responded.
Gregory grinned. "Yeah, It's been a couple of months since I've seen those dudes, so I'm looking forward to it."
Fiona smiled. "That's awesome," she told him. She paused for a moment before adding, "And I really appreciate that you're cool about this. We could have gone somewhere else–"
He waved her off. "Don't mention it! You guys… I know how difficult it's been and how much you care about each other."
Fiona was touched. "Thanks."
He awkwardly smiled and shrugged. After a beat he added, "And I know you guys are gonna be off the rails this weekend, so in actuality I'm just saving my ears!" he joked.
Fiona laughed heartily. "Hmm, self-preservation. I can see that!"
-oOo-
Many hours later when she had watched a number of shows and had eaten dinner, Fiona was struggling not to fall asleep. It was just after Midnight. The last text she had gotten from Adam was over an hour ago. He told her that testing was going well and it looked like they might be finished sooner than they had anticipated. The news lifted her spirits considerably, but now she was wondering if they hit another road block.
She closed her eyes for what felt like a second. When she tiredly opened them again she was shocked to see it was 1:42AM. She reached for her phone and saw she had two messages from Adam.
** We're getting out of here finally! See u soon princess! – Adam T. **
It was time stamped at 12:37AM. She smiled and scrolled to the next message.
** More troubleshooting. Sorry. Not sure how long. Love u! – Adam T. **
This one was time stamped at 1:09AM.
Fiona sighed in frustration. She still had no idea when he would be back, so she decided to head to bed. She went to his room and left the door ajar. That way if he came back soon she would hear him. She took off the house robe she had on. Underneath she was wearing a rather sexy lace bra and matching panties. She had spent a lot of time debating what to wear for tonight. Ultimately she chose the matching set because it would be easier to take off then full on lingerie.
None of it seemed to matter now. The clock had long struck twelve and her prince wasn't here yet!

A/N: Aww. That's disappointing for Fi and Adam :(

Okay. From here on out, just assume a chapter has lemons unless otherwise stated. Yes lemons, not mini lemons.
