Waking up with arms wrapped around me, was a little hard to get used to. I loved it though. I felt warm, safe and most importantly happy. I could never get tired of the feel of his soft hands. His sweet and unique scent, was the most intoxicating. I snuggled closer to him and he tightened his grip on me. Moments like these were rare, because of his job. He would always get called in early and I would still be asleep when he left. I closed my eyes and tried to enjoy this for as long as I could. I was about to drift off, when I felt his lips hovering over my back. Soon his lips were on my back, covering it with kisses. He stopped briefly, before moving his hand which was on my waist down my leg. I knew what was coming next and I wanted it more than anything, but every time we started something, his phone would ring and he would have to leave. It didn't matter the time of day. It's like they knew the worst time to call him. I stretched my body out and he kissed my neck.
"Morning, beautiful." He whispered in my ear. I smiled and rolled over to face him. "I was just about to wake you up in a very creative way." He smiled.
"I know, but that wouldn't be smart."
"Why not?" He asked, rubbing my cheek.
"Because you might not be able to finish what you started." I said, moving my hand, so I could touch his chest.
"I could just turn off my phone."
"Yeah right. How else would Javi be able to call you?"
"When I am with you, I never want him to call me." He grabbed my hand and kissed it. I looked at the clock and saw that it was almost 8. I groaned.
"What?" He asked, confused.
"I have to get ready to go. I have to be to work in like an hour and a half."
"Or.." He said kind of loud. "We could call in sick and stay here in bed." He pulled me to him and proceeded to give me a passion-filled kiss. I moaned into the kiss. He was dangerous for me. It was hard to resist him. I knew I should go take a shower and get ready, but I couldn't seem to accept it. I climbed on top of him, still kissing him. His hand ran up and down my back, giving me shivers. I pulled back and sat up.
"I can't afford to miss a day of work, even though being here with you, is all I want, but someone has to pay the bills." I bent down and kissed him again.
"I will cover your rent for a year, if you stay here." He pulled my face back to his. I laughed and kissed him back.
"I have to go shower." He pouted. I was a sucker for that face and he knew it. " That's not fair. Don't make that face."
"I can't help it, it just appears when I feel hurt."
"I hate you." I joked. I was going to get up, when he said something that through me for a loop. "What?" I asked, thinking that I may have heard him wrong. "What did you say?"
He looked up at me and smiled. "I said, you can hate me, but I love you." I felt my eyes tearing up.
"You love me?" I asked, in a low voice.
"Of course, I do." He said it as if, it was common knowledge. I couldn't believe it. "Are you okay?" He asked, grabbing my hand.
I nodded, not trusting my voice. As soon as I felt, I could trust my voice, I looked at him to see him staring at me. I don't know how I didn't see it before. All I could see in those eyes were love. I leaned in and kissed him. I didn't think I could feel this way for anyone, let alone, Kevin, who I had only be secretly seeing for 3 months. "I love you, too." I said, when the kiss ended. I looked at him and saw his eyes light up. "You do?"
"I do." And I did. Before I knew what was happening, he was on his phone. "What are you doing?"
"Calling in sick." I smiled. I didn't like the thought of him missing a day of work, but it was his decision. I decided to follow suit and made my own call.
After we were both off our phones, he grabbed me by the waist and made me face him. He pressed his lips to mine. For the first time, in awhile, I didn't feel the need to over analyze felt good. It felt right. I loved him. I was as certain as I could be. I never felt this way before and I was just going to go with it, no matter what happened, I was in this and I didn't want to be anywhere else or with anyone else.
A few days later, I was in the middle of helping Lanie, with an autopsy. Fortunately, I didn't have to touch anything. I was just observing. I was in the middle of filling out the chart as Lanie instructed, when the doors opened. "Hello, ladies." We both turned to see Kevin and Javi.
"What are you doing here?" Lanie, snapped at Javi. I kept my head down and tried not to make any noise. I didn't want to face her wrath. Something happened between Javi and her and she wasn't being subtle about it.
"Just came to get the results on our vic."
Lanie gave me a look of pure annoyance. "I'll be right back." I nodded and continued to fill out the chart. Kevin followed her, he was asking her questions, as they left. His eyes briefly made contact with mine. I looked down immediately.
"Man, she is really uptight today. What's that all about?"
"Don't know." I said, keeping my eyes down. Kevin and I decided when we first got together that we should keep things just between us. We wanted to keep this just to ourselves. I knew if I looked at him, I would get that stupid smile on my face and Javi would know something was up.
"How've you been Munchkin?" Javi asked, coming over closer to me.
"Good. How about yourself?" I asked.
"I've been really good." He smiled. "Not as good as some people though." He kept his eyes locked on me.
"What?" I asked.
"Ry seems to be doing really good, you wouldn't know anything about that, would you?" Shit. He knew.
"No, I wouldn't."
"Really?"
"Javi, cut to the chase."
"Are you guys, ya know?"
"Sleeping together?"
"Yes. Are you sleeping with Ryan?" Before I could answer I heard Kevin. "Javi!"
"What?" Javi shot back.
"Javi, I'm not sleeping with Kevin. I'm sorry to disappoint."
"How would it be your business, if they were?" Lanie chimed in. Before he could answer, I decided to end the conversation.
"I actually have a date tonight, Javi." He turned his gaze from Lanie to me.
"Really? Anyone I know?"
"Hansen from narcotics." Kevin said. I looked at him and he winked at me. "He asked about her, so I kind of set them up." I gave him a surprised look. He was always there when I needed him.
"You hooked her up with someone else?" Javi asked.
"Yes. Like I told you repeated times, we aren't together." He said, then gave me a small smile.
"Oh, well, I guess I was wrong. I was picking up signals, that I guess weren't there." I gave him a smile.
"Sorry, Munchkin." Kevin coughed and moved closer. I laughed. "Sorry bro." He said, but didn't look at him.
Lanie walked over and handed Javi a folder. "Here you go." She shook her head at him and walked away.
Javi, gave me look then turned to Kevin. "Come on, bro lets go." He said, walking out of the room, clearly embarrassed. Lanie, walked out of them room to grab a pair of goggles for me.
Kevin quickly ran over and gave me a kiss. "I'll text you later." He whispered. I smiled and nodded. He was so cute, sometimes.
I stood there patiently by the body, waiting for Lanie to return. When she did, she had a smile on her face. I tried to ignore it. She handed me the goggles and I slipped them on. After a few minutes of silence, Lanie finally spoke.
"How long?"
"Excuse me?" I asked.
"How long have you guys been together?"
"Who?" "Girl, I am not stupid. Javi, yes. Me, no." She laughed. "So how long?"
"Lanie, I don't know what you are talking about?" Why did I continue to lie, when I knew I wasn't any good at it?
"So I didn't just see Ryan and you kiss?" She asked, looking up at me. I froze up and looked back to the body.
"Lanie, please don't tell anyone. Not Beckett or Castle or anyone else, please." I spoke in a low voice.
"You got it girl. I knew there was something going between you guys." She smiled.
"How?"
"I have spent a lot of time around dead people, so when I am around the live ones I pay attention. The way you guys sneak looks at each other. The way you smile at each other. Its pretty obvious." She laughed. "You guys are just lucky that Javi is so oblivious." She put her hand on my arm. "I'm happy for you both. Could tell from day one that he had a thing for you and after awhile, I saw that you felt the same way." She was like a psychic. I sighed.
"I thought we were doing a good job at hiding it." I said, out loud, which wasn't my intention.
"Apparently, you are. Nobody else knows, right?"
"Right." I nodded. "Thanks for keeping our secret."
She smiled. "Don't mention it."
After I left the morgue, I was on my way to my car. I grabbed my keys out of my pocket, then I felt two arms wrap around my waist and stop me. I jumped a little, even though I knew who it was. I turned around and before I could say anything, his lips were on mine. I laughed and kissed him back, when suddenly, it hit me where we were. I pulled back.
"Kev, anyone could come out here and see us."
"Nobody is here. Just us." He pulled me to him again. "So can I see you tonight?" He asked, before kissing my neck. I closed my eyes.
"I wish." I sighed. "I have plans though."
"You have a guy on the side, I should know about?" He asked, still kissing my neck.
"No. Not a guy. Two guys." I smiled.
"Really?" He kissed my lips.
I nodded. "They're my brothers, Shane and Drake."
"Wow. That's very kinky." I laughed and smacked him on his arm. He kissed me again.
"So when do I get to meet them?"
"Uh, I don't know. Do you really need to?" I asked.
He laughed. "I'd like to, you know, someday."
"Then you will. Someday."
"Do you not want me to meet them?" He asked, pulling away.
"I don't know. Not right now, maybe we can just wait for that." He nodded slowly.
"Good. Cause I want to meet them and your sister." I jumped.
"My sister?"
"Yeah, you told me you had a sister."
"Yeah, um.." I didn't know what to say. "I should uh get going they are probably waiting."
"Call me later okay?" He asked, wrapping his arms around me.
"I will." He leaned in and kissed me. "See you later." I smiled. He turned and left, leaving me feeling confused. I took deep breath, when I got into the car. I couldn't help, but to feel nauseated. I couldn't believe this was happening. How was I going to explain things to him. I knew why he wanted to meet my family, but I still wasn't sure if he should or not. We weren't exactly a whole family. How would I explain Tess? I took a deep breath and started up the car. I had to remind myself to take it one day at a time.
