Author's Note: Amazing request from Booth-Bones 4life which was "Eliot and Parker go to a club or something." I hope you like it! Also, I'm looking for a new title for this series. Suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
They're going out tonight.
Granted, it's for a job, but it still counts as going out.
Eliot's glad. As much as he loves his work, it's good to get out and breathe for awhile. The job is simple too. Go to Drabbles, the local club, and keep an eye on the seedy bank teller that they're going to bring down.
"Eliot?"
And there's the problem with his simple plan.
Parker walks into his room and twirls with her hair nervously. She's wearing a tight fitting red dress. Eliot feels a wave of heat enter his body and his brain screams at him to get it under control. This was Parker he was thinking about. She was his partner for the job. He needed to stay focus and after this whole thing was over, take a cold shower.
"Yes, Parker?" He asks gruffly, his gaze quickly darting to the wall.
"Do I really have to wear this?" She moved the fabric uncertainly. "I look funny."
He sighs for the fifth time in the past ten minutes.
"Parker," He says in a tone that conveys a sense of frustration to Parker. She bites her lower lip, unsure of what to do. "Let's go."
He grabs her wrist and drags her out the door. Nate had set them up in a hotel that was right across the street from the club. He flashes the fake I.D. that Hardison made to the guy at the door.
"Welcome back, Mr. Matthews."
Eliot is amazed at the things Hardison could do.
They both into the club and spot their target. The music is blaring, the lights are flashing, and Parker looks completely out of place.
Eliot frowns.
People out of place in any situation are the first to be spotted and they don't need any attention on them.
"Eliot, I—" He pulls her close to him and begins to twirl her around.
"Let go," He orders, but Parker swears that his eyes are smiling at her. He begins to twirl her around again and she responds. She closes her eyes and listens to the music around her. She lets it wash out all her fears, her worries, her doubts and when she opens her eyes, she smiles.
Eliot loves that smile.
It's a smile that he has only seen once before when Parker got her hands on a lot of money and he means a lot.
They dance and for awhile they forget about their job and are just two normal people having a good time at a club.
Later, they realize that their guy has vanished. Panicked, they split up to go look for him.
As she watches him run away, Parker thinks that she likes clubs.
Eliot thinks the same thing.
