Salex Series: This will be a few parts because I want to work on this "plot". I think it would be fun. Set sometime between 3x01- 3x04 definitely before the engagement dinner though.

"Man, are you alright?" Michael questioned entering the old shooting range to meet Sean. The Seal had texted him asking for help but wanted it to be a secret. Michael didn't know what to think so he suggested they meet at the old shooting range. The place has provided privacy for him and Nikita many times and nobody ever goes there.

Sean looked at Michael like he was his saviour and in that situation, it probably felt like that to him.

"I need your assistance with something very important. You are the only one I could trust to help me with this ." Sean blurted out.

"Okay..?" Michael was really confused now. He still didn't know whether it was an emergency or Sean just being Sean.

"My sisters are flying into New York next week. We are celebrating Sandy's birthday and doing family outings, dinners - like the whole thing all week. I would love to ask Alex to join me but.."

"But you are not sure how she is going to take it cause you don't want it to seem too fast and overwhelming" with confidence Michael interrupted Sean immediately catching on to his problem.

Sean was surprised, to say the least, "How did you..?"

"As soon as you mentioned your sisters coming to town it was pretty obvious" Michal replied with a grin. He rarely showed his emotions like that outside of his very close circle but Sean was becoming a good friend of his and someone he knew he could count on. His seriousness towards his relationship with Alex also helped. Michael was very happy for them. He, like Nikita, was very protective of Alex so knowing she has someone like Sean by her side eased him. She deserved to have her happiness.

"So what do you think?"

"If it feels right I think you should definitely ask her. I understand where you are coming from but sometimes those big scary steps lead to something amazing" Michael shared.

He was talking from personal experience. Going to Nikita's loft, after finding out the truth about Kasim and Division, and admitting his feelings for her was one of the best decisions he had made and one he wished had done sooner. Not to even mention their recent engagement.

Sean took in his words. He really wanted to introduce Alex to his sisters and show them how amazing she is. He was certain they would love her and become best friends, later on even maybe teaming up against him. The thought of that made his heart race.

"I really want to do it. It does feel right. I mean we are not people with normal lives. I can't afford to waste any more time with her. I am serious with my feelings for her and hopefully, I've shown that enough" Sean let his thoughts run out loud.

"Look, how about this. You can ask her to join you for dinner with your sisters first. I think she'll be thrilled. You'll see how it goes and from there you can decide what to do next. Either way, she'll meet them and that's a serious step I would say." Michael proposed seeing how Sean was working himself up on all the possibilities.

" Yeah, that sounds less intimidating for sure. I could do that. Thank you, Michael" Sean reached out for a homie handshake slightly forgetting he was still talking to Michael maybe.

Michale stifled a laugh but still shook his hand. He hadn't done that shake since the army probably but even there it was a rarity.

"Anytime"

"Can I ask you about something else as well?" Sean was a little bit more hesitant about that one. He really wanted this to remain a secret. Michael nodded. Sean took a deep breath. It really wasn't that big of a deal he didn't know why he was working himself up so much.

"I trust Alex to communicate with me, but if you could pay attention around Nikita, see if Alex tells her anything about this. Preferably without Nikita really knowing what's going on."

Michal laughed "I'm sorry have you met my fiancée? Even Alex busted me once for asking questions about you guys because Nikita wanted to know. They sense when you're snooping around where you're not supposed to."

"Wait-'' Sean was confused now "when did that happen?" He hadn't heard about that story before.

"Doesn't matter now" Michael really didn't want to get into how his girl managed to persuade him to do anything for her. "I could ask her directly. She'll tell me. I can explain your plan and she would be on board, believe me. I told Alex about my plans to propose and Nikita didn't suspect a thing so…"

Before Michael could finish someone busted through the door irritated "Thank God baby, I was hoping to find you here" Nikita admitted with an exhausted tone and went straight to her man's arms not even realising Sean was there too.

"What happened?" Michael asked straight away while trying to soothe her by holding her tightly against him and running his hand on her back and into her hair.

"You know Ryan and his shenanigans. He might want to live here and never see sunlight ever again under a mountain of reports, but I don't so let's go home, please" Nikita groaned

"Okay" Michael stiffed a laugh. He was relieved she was okay. Then he noticed Sean in the corner and remembered what he was doing before Nikita came in.

"Let me finish here first" He nodded in Sean's direction.

Nikita turned around and was surprised to see the Seal "Boy scout?"

Then she looked back at Michael. Nikita pulled away from him and crossed her arms.

"What are you two up to?" she asked with a grin on her face.

The boys just stared at each other. Michael didn't know if Sean agreed with his idea to tell Nikita about his plan so he stayed silent hoping Sean would lead here.

"What is this a staring contest? Now I definitely know you are up to something." Nikita quipped. They were acting like little boys who just got caught doing something they shouldn't.

Sean was contemplating what to do."Look -" But before he could say more his phone started blowing up with texts. Apparently, after Nikita left Ryan's office Alex had become his next victim and she wanted to get out of there as well. He showed the couple his phone and they all laughed.

Sean decided to trust Michael. He could explain everything to Nikita and he knew she'll listen to him and try to help as well. So he patted Michael on the shoulder giving him the look of approval and hurried to meet Alex.

"So, are you having secrets from me now?" Nikita came into Michels' arms again and asked with a smirk knowing he was going to tell her.

Michael kissed her then. He wanted to ever since she came in but restrained himself because they weren't alone. However now he had her all to himself. They parted when the need for air became too much. They still remained very close - foreheads touching and eyes locked.

"So.." Nikita whispered

"I promise I'll tell you when we get home, hm?"

Nikita nodded and he resumed their kissing. After a little bit, Nikita pulled away cause she couldn't stop her laughter "Why do we always end up making out in here?"

"Thought you liked that fantasy?" Michael smirked remembering all their jokes about their time in Division and how much they wanted each other then but never did anything.

"Mmm, I prefer the one at our place" Michael bit his lip a little trying to ignore all the images in his mind right now.

Nikita decided to tease him even more "See, we can start from the front door, jackets and shirts off, we can have some fun in the kitchen or the couch, you always liked the couch, pants definitely off by that time-" Michael swallowed hard. She knew exactly how to work him up (not that she had to try hard)" -then the only way we're entering the bedroom is naked and then you best believe I'm dropping on my knees for you and-" at that Michael just had enough. He bent down, picked her up and started walking to their car as fast as he could. Nikita yelped and laughed at his enthusiasm wrapping her arms around his neck and her legs around his waist holding him tight.

You best believe he got them home as fast as possible.

When Sean entered the garage he saw Alex already in the car. He laughed. Ryan really must be a nightmare to be around right now.

"Hey, you" he greeted her with a kiss.

"Hey" and she gave him a big smile after kissing him back.

"Are you driving us home?" Sean questioned because she was in the driver's seat. She wasn't a fan of driving at night, especially around the field above Division. It creeped her out in the dark.

"Actually yes I'm driving. I was um-" Alex was hesitant. She was smiling so it wasn't something serious Sean figured,

"Hey, what?" Sean grabbed her hand.

"It's really stupid, but I guess- I was hoping to sneak out even earlier without anyone noticing. I got caught up here though and decided to wait for you so my plan didn't really work out "

"Wait, why sneak out ?" Sean asked confused about where this was going.

"I passed this movie theatre a couple of days ago and saw that there is a remake of one of my favourite movies so I was hoping to go" Alex chuckled at how ridiculous she sounded. She was an assassin working for the government and yet she planned on sneaking out to go to the movies. She couldn't remember the last time she went to a cinema though so she couldn't get it out of her mind.

Sean couldn't hold his laughter at that point.

"Sean!"Alex nudged him to stop.

After he calmed down he looked at her and grinned "So am I invited to your wild night out?"

Alex was stunned. She didn't expect that reaction" You want to come with me? "

" Of course I do! Sounds like something fun we can do together"

She leaned in and kissed him sweetly.

"Since you picked the movie though I'm picking the snacks"

They both laughed and headed on their fun little night out.

I know this is about Salex but I couldn't help myself. I always drift towards Mikita but I thought you would enjoy seeing both couples. For other parts of the series, Salex would be the main focus so I allowed myself this for the first part haha. Hope you enjoyed it and let me know your thoughts xx
