Chapter 2.

When Brody arrived home she quickly made coffee and set about doing a quick tidy up. Due to the fact the only thing she really did was sleep and change clothes here it looked like an explosion in a clothes factory. Going around gathering up the clothes she dumped them in the wished and started it off. Clearing away that morning's breakfast dishes and the coffee cups that were scattered around she dumped the whole lot in the sink. Running the tap she set about making fresh coffee and doing a quickly wipe down of the kitchen. When the coffee was made she wished the dishes and the. Went and checked the lounge was clean. Grabbing her coffee from the kitchen she headed upstairs to have a shower and get changed before Pride arrived.

Walking into her bedroom she let out a small groan. The bedroom looked worse than downstairs. Working her way around, she picked up the clothes sorting them as she went and placed all the clean ones back in the while the dirty one went in the laundry hamper. Making the bed, she stripped off and went and had a shower but not before she made sure every bit of dirty clothing was moved off the floor.

After her shower, she came back in the bedroom to get ready. Then it hit her, what was she going to wear? It wasn't like it was a date but then again maybe it was. She didn't have to dress to impress as she had had a feeling she had done already. Walking over to her underwear drawer she picked out a red thong and red lace bra. Slipping them on she went in her wardrobe and had to look at what her options were.

Finally finding a nice low cut v neck top and a pair of skinny jeans she got ready and went to dry her hair. Once her hair was dried and brushed in place she applied a small amount of makeup and a touch of perfume. Stepping back she gave herself the once over in the mirror before getting her empty coffee cup and coming downstairs.

Once downstairs Brody walked round and gave the place the once-over to make sure it was tidy. She really shouldn't be such a slob but since she was hardly home and she had no one to entertain she didn't really bother. When she was happy the place was tidy she went in the kitchen and put on a fresh pot of coffee and grabbed a packet of cookies from the cupboard. Sitting at the table she waited for Pride to arrive. As time passed she became more and more nervous.

Why on earth was she nervous, this was not like a first date or anything. Here she was sat waiting for her very handsome and sexy boss to turn up after they had a major snogging session earlier that day. What was there to be nervous about? it wasn't like they didn't see each other every day. As if on cue she heard a knock on the door. Taking a few deep breaths to steady her nervous she got up and went to answer the door.

Opening the door, she found Pride standing with a bottle of red wine in one hand and a bunch of flowers in the other. He smiled at her when she opened the door so stepping aside she gestured for him to come in. Entering the hallway he stopped and waited for her to close the door. Seeing the side table behind the door he placed the bottle and flowers down before pushing her up against the wall and claiming her lips in a heated kiss. With one hand on the wall and the other tangled in her hair, Pride pulled away as the need for air overtook them. Resting his forehead against hers, he closed his eyes and just stood waiting till their breath returned to normal.

Merri was a little taken back when she suddenly found herself pushed against the wall and her mouth not only covered but controlled by Prides tongue and lips. She soon caught up and her tongue fought back as well as her teeth nipping and grazing at his lips and tongue. As they stood forehead to forehead with their eyes closed she snaked one hand up his back and the other into his hair holding him to her.

As her breathing returned to a normal level she brought her lips to meet his and slowly kissed his lips before kissing along his jaw to his ear then down to his neck. Nipping and biting his neck she knew he would have a few marks when she was finished but she didn't care and by the feel of it neither did he. As she kissed his neck Pride took his hand off the wall and brought it to her waist. Finding the edge of her top he slid his hand under it and made trailed a slow path up her back till his hand rested on her bra strap.

Merri stepped forward so she was now flush against Prides chest. Pride inhaled sharply at the contact and groaned as he felt Merri wind her hand up and down his chest to settle on his waist.

"Maybe we should take this somewhere other than my hallway" Merri suggested as she continued to kiss the exposed skin on Pride's neck.

"Lead the way" as Pride kissed her lips and stepped back so she could get passed him.

Taking his hand, she slowly led him upstairs. At the top of the stairs, she turned so she had her back to her bedroom door and standing on her tiptoes she kissed Pride at the same time as taking his other hand so he held both. Walking backwards kissing him she led him up to her bedroom door. Before she pushed it open she stopped and drew her head back a little so she could take in his full face.

"If we do this there is no going back, I will not be used a quick release or something you play with when you're out of options. If I let you in you stay in" Merri told Pride giving him the chance to back away.

In answer to her question, Pride wrapped his arms around her and grabbed her ass hauling her up his body till she was straddling his waist. His lips descended on hers as he step forward and pushed her bedroom door open with her back. Kissing her senseless he kept walking till he felt his legs hit the bed. Kneeling forward he lay her back on the bed and continued to kiss her till neither could breath. Pulling back he stood up and stepped away from the bed. Merri watched as he undid the buttons on his shirt and slipped it off. Kicking his shoes off he started to undo his belt and jeans as he watched Merri who was now intent on watching his every move.

As his jeans hit the floor he stepped out of them and stepped back up to the bed. Reaching out for Merri she took his hand and he pulled her to stand in front of him.

"You have too many clothes on, let's remedy that" as he slid his hands under her top and worked it up her body till he pulled it over her head and threw it to the floor.

Next was her jeans as he slid his hands into the waistband and pushed them off her hips making sure he left her underwear on. Pushing them down to her knees he let go, they didn't move any further. Looking at her face then down at the offending clothing he lifted his Leg up and placed his foot on the jeans and pushed them down till they reached the floor. Keeping his foot in place Merri stepped out of them.

Stepping back so he could take in the site of Merri in just her underwear he wasn't disappointed.

"Beautiful" he murmured as he stepped back up to her and taking hold of her waist he eased her back onto the bed so he was covering her body with his.

"Let me show you how special you really are" as his lips joined hers and he did indeed show her just how special she was.

Laying flat on her back with Prides head resting on her naked breasts Merri was a very happy women. She had one hand resting on his back drawing lazy lines up and down while the other hand was wrapped in his. She had to admit that having an older man as a lover was very rewarding. He not only had very skilled hands but also a very exquisite mouth. Between his hands, mouth and body he had showed her just how much she had been missing out on as he brought her to amazing highs 3 times before he finally allowed his own release. She could definitely get used to it.

Looking down at him as he rested she was amazed at how peaceful he looked. Bring her hand up from his back she ran it through his sweat-drenched hair. Turning his head, he looked up at her and smiled. Smiling back at him he shuffled up so he was now level with her face.

Kissing her very red and swollen lips, he rested his head on her shoulder.

"How about we grab a shower and then go get something to eat? I know a few good restaurants around her. None as good as my cooking but they will do till I can go shopping and make you a meal" as he placed kisses along her jaw.

"You sure you want to go out in public, we could set tongues wagging," Merri asked him as she was not sure how far he wanted to push this new thing they had.

"I am not ashamed to be seen in public with you, we have done nothing wrong and I will not hide away" as he kissed her to reinforce his words.

"If you're sure come on then" as she sat up causing his head to fall from her shoulder onto the bed.

Pride laughed as she got up and held her hand out to him. Taking her hand, he climbed off the bed and followed her to the bathroom. Merri switched the shower on and waited for it to warm up before opening the cubicle door.

"After you" she gestured to Pride who stepped in and grabbed her waist pulling her in with him.

After a second round or worshipping each other's bodies, they both stepped out the shower all fresh and clean. Walking into the bedroom they both got dry and dressed but avoided each other's personal space as they would never get ready and make it out the house.

When they were both dressed Pride held out his hand to Brody and he lead her downstairs.

At the bottom of the stairs he stopped and bringing her hand up to his lips he kissed it.

"Can I have the honour of escorting you to dinner" as he held her hand to his lips after kissing it.

"I would love to go to dinner with you" Brody giggled a little as she answered.

"We'll get your stuff together and let's go" as he stood at the front door and waited for her to get her bag and keys.

Locking up Pride offered Brody his arm and she took it pulling herself close to him as she linked his arm. Steering away from the cars on the drive they walked to the restaurant as it was a nice warm evening. On arriving, they were escorted to a table where Brody let Pride pick the wine and also the meals as she was still leading her way a good Cajun menu. When the meals arrived they sat eating talking about their family and their lives before NCIS and their meeting.

Brody ordered dessert as that was one thing she didn't need any help with. When it arrived she placed it in between them and they sat sharing it. When they were finished they got up to leave and Pride held out Brody's jacket for her to put on.

As they left the restaurant Brody linked her arm with Pride's and held his hand at the same time as she leaning her head on his shoulder. She was just about to thank him for an amazing evening when he came to an abrupt stop and she felt him tense up. Looking up at his face she followed his gaze and saw the reason for his change in posture and stance. There in front of them a little way down the street was Prides wife Linda with her arm linked with a man. He saw her before she saw him and from where she was stood even Brody could she the change in stance when she finally saw her husband and the way Brody was linking arms with him and her head on his shoulder.

This was not good, not good at all. This could end badly for all parties if not handled right. Brody went to pull away, but Pride stopped her with a vice like grip on her hand and arm. At least she got her head off his shoulder before the 2 parties approached each other.

"Evening Linda, how have you been?" Pride asked trying to break the ice.

"Hello Dwyane, fancy seeing you here. On saying that it always was one of our favourite restaurants wasn't it" Linda replied as she directed the last part at Brody.

"Well it's always been mine but you never cared for Cajun cooking if I remember right" Pride replied with a sting in his answer.

"Well hello again Agent Brody, it's nice to see you. Shame it's draped over your bosses arm".

"Who I have draped over my arm as you so nicely put it is not your concern now Linda. I could say the same to you" as Pride shot the young man at Linda's side a dirty look.

"Very true, but you have never been one to mix business with pleasure. Has he taken you for a walk along the little path that leads down to the river yet? It's beautiful at night and it's one of his favourite spots in town".

The more Linda spoke the tighter Prides grip got on Brody's arm. It was getting to the point of painful and she hoped he let up soon before she had to pull away.

"Well enjoy the rest of your evening Linda we must be going" and with that Pride practically dragged Brody away down the street away for Linda.

When they were at a safe difference Brody stopped and tried to untangle her arm from Prides.

"Dwayne please let go you're hurting my arm" as she finally managed to pull her arm away.

Sure enough there were red marks where Pride had gripped her arm tight. As if coming to his senses Pride shook his head and looked down at Brody and then her arm. Seeing the red marks he was mortified at what he had done.

"Christ Meredith I am so sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you, let me see" as he reached out to take her arm to look.

Seeing the look of horror cross Pride's face at the red marks, she let him take her arm and look at the red marks. He used his fingers to gently run over the red marks then bending his head placed light kisses to the marks. Looking back up at Brody's face he left his fingers running over the marks.

"Come let's get you home, I am sorry you had to not only witness that but get caught up in it" Pride said as he let go off Brody's arm and offered her his hand.

"You sure we should do this Dwayne? I do not want to be stuck in the middle of your divorce" Brody said as she chewed on her bottom lip a little nervous at the answer she might receive.

"I would not be here if I was not sure. I told you the truth earlier when I said I am not into quick fixes or one-night stands. I understand if you want to walk away as that back there was messy" Pride said as he looked a little crestfallen at the thought she might back away.

"If you're sure this is what you want then I am sure it's what I want. Let's go home and get some coffee and we can work this out as we go" Brody told Pride as she took his hand and lead him towards her house and hopefully back to her bed.
