A/N: Alright so I wanted to write a romantic fic for Burzek to put a balm on my broken heart and since it's Valentine's Day, I thought it would be fitting. Hope you guys like it.
Adam and Kim were never the couple to celebrate Valentine's Day and even more so since becoming parents but now that Allie was ten and Dylan was five, it made things a little bit easier to make plans for just the two of them.
"Hey Adam, do you know what I did with my bathing suit?" Kim yelled from their bedroom.
"I don't remember the last time you wore one." He chuckled from the kitchen where he was making breakfast, Allie snorting in disgust at the breakfast bar.
"Come on dad, I'm eating here." She rolled her eyes at her father.
"One day you'll understand miss Allie." Calling her Allie pie was so nine years old as she had once told Adam a few weeks back.
"I highly doubt it."
"I'm ready dad." Dylan hopped on a stool as Adam presented him with a plate filled with food.
"Eat up bud, uncle Kev should be here in about thirty minutes."
"Did he tell you what we were going to do?" He filled his mouth with too much food out of excitement.
"Yes but I'm not telling you, he said it was a surprise." Adam was more than glad that Kevin was taking the boy out for the day because he and Allie had planned something special for Kim and since he couldn't keep a secret, he hadn't been kept in the loop all together.
"Come on dad." The sounds came out muffled as he chewed.
"Dylan Robert Ruzek, we don't speak with our mouth full." Kim admonished him as she walked into the kitchen, ruffling his hair and giving Adam a kiss.
"Ewww, cooties." Dylan snickered, finding himself funny.
"Language bud. You have everything you need darling?" Adam sipped on his coffee as Kim made a plate for herself.
"Yeah, I'm all set for a day of pampering with Nicole."
"I want to go with you next time mom?"
"Sorry baby, you have to be twelve." She grumbled and returned to her food while Kim started eating.
"What are you ladies planning today?"
"We are going to the spa and Nicole booked us a sixty minute massage and then we are going to have dinner together."
"That's good, you deserve that after the last few tough weeks we had in intelligence."
"Yeah, not sure how much more my body can endure at this point."
"What are we going to do if mom and Dylan are gone."
"Whatever you want." He winked at her, the two of them playing the game so Kim wouldn't suspect a thing.
"Yes." She pumped her fist in the air just as there was a knock on the door and Kevin let himself in.
"Where's my little homie?" He peaked in the kitchen, a mini-me tagging along.
"I'm ready uncle Kev." Dylan dumped his plate in the sink and they did his and Kim's handshake, something she had passed onto both her children. "Hey Dante." He was a year older than him but they were glued to the hip when they were together.
"Get your sneaks on and we're gone." Dylan hurried to grab his shoes and get them tied up.
"Where are we going uncle Kev?"
"Surprise. Now let's go."
"Bye mom." He kissed Kim on the cheek with an extra squeeze when she hugged him and the three boys were gone.
"So, what is his surprise?"
"NBA All-Star activities and then back for movie night." Adam told her.
"GET OUT, THAT'S NOT FAIR DAD!" Allie was mad, not having known about this before.
"Uncle Kev has taken you to all kinds of things like that when you were Dylan's age Allie, don't start." Kim admonished her, only making her more testy. She stuffed food in her mouth to avoid complaining more and getting into trouble.
"When is your sister due to be here?" Adam pulled her to him
"Any minute I think." As if on cue, the doorbell rang. "That must be her." She moved out of Adam's embrace and went to open the door to her sister.
"Are you ready?" Nicole hugged her after walking in.
"Let me grab my bag in my room and I'm good to go." Kim left, leaving Adam and Nicole alone.
"Hey Nicole, thanks again for this." He whispered, not wanting Kim to hear.
"I should be thanking you for springing for it."
"My pleasure." They exchanged a knowing glance before Kim returned.
"I'm ready. Have a nice day baby." She wrapped her arms around Adam's neck and pulled him down for a kiss. "Have fun with your baby girl."
"You know I will."
"And listen to your dad missy."
"Yes mom." She sighed and rolled her eyes at them.
"Pre-teens." Nicole chuckled. "Good luck with that."
"I'll see you tonight, have fun." The girls left and Adam closed the door, leaning his back against it. "Alright miss Allie, you're up." He locked the door and the two of them went towards the kitchen, Allie grabbing the iPad on the way.
"Will you help me dad?"
"Of course I'll help you but you're the chef, I'm on sous-chef duty." Allie loved to bake and she found a recipe for a small chocolate cake. Adam had this whole evening planned and as soon as the cake was done, he had a surprise for Allie so he could finish planning the rest of the evening with Kim. "Do you think that mom will like it?"
"Mom's going to love it." They spent the the next hour in the kitchen baking and then they put it in the fridge to set.
"Am I going to stay over at uncle Kevin's place too tonight?"
"No, I have other plans for you missy. Head for a shower and get changed and we can have lunch together.
"Sweet. " She pumped her fist in the air in triumph. "Can we go to Seoul Tacos, pleaseee?"
"Absolutely." He knew that's where she would want to go, being her favourite restaurant, thanks to Trudy. She skipped up the stairs and headed for the shower, leaving Adam to make sure everything was in order. For his plan to work. He had sent Kim to the spa with Nicole as a front so he could get ready. Trudy would come pick Allie for a shopping trip and to put his plan in motion, she and Kevin keeping the kids so he and Kim could have a nice evening. When Allie came back, Adam was ready to start his plan. "Come on kid, let's go." Allie didn't have to be asked twice and they were both on their way to the restaurant on Clark and W Superior street. He always loved being able to spend some quality father daughter time and he mostly let her do the choosing.
"Ok so tell me what you're planning for mom tonight." She asked as she started eating her taco.
"Well I'm going to do my chicken Alfredo for dinner and I have a few surprises up my sleeve." He hadn't told her everything, just parts of it.
"You're so cheesy dad." She rolled her eyes.
"Your mom loves cheesy." He chuckled.
"The two of you are so gross."
"Careful young lady." She rolled her eyes at her father but Adam ignored it. He knew that deep down she loved it when he did stuff like that. They ate and returned home, Trudy scheduled to be there in about twenty minutes.
"Tell me what's my surprise dad." She was now bouncing around, having trouble containing her excitement.
"Stop bouncing Allie." He chuckled.
"Not until you tell me where I'm going."
"I'm not telling you shit."
"DAD, language." Adam was making an extra effort in the department, Kim being on him all the time about it because of the kids.
"Still not telling you anything kid."
"Not a kid." She grumbled but their banter was cut by the knocking on the door.
"Don't look at me, go answer kid." She growled as he chuckled but the growl was followed by a squeal when she saw who was there.
"Grandma Trudy." She hugged the older lady.
"That's right little lady Ruzek, you're with me today." She winked at Adam over Allie's head.
"What are we doing?"
"Well I have it under very good authority that you are in need of a new wardrobe. Your dad keeps saying that you keep growing like a weed." Allie gave Adam the evil eye but he only laughed at her.
"Am I staying over with you and grandpa Mouch?"
"Absolutely and we are having a movie night with pop corn and candies."
"YES." She started bouncing off again.
"Go make a bag and let's go." The two of them watched and she scrambled up to her room to make a bag for the night.
"Thanks for taking her tonight Trudy." They hugged.
"It's my pleasure Special Sauce." She smiled at him. "We love having her over."
"I'm ready."
"Dad, hug and let's go." Allie bounced back towards Adam and hugged him.
"Thanks dad."
"Have fun darling." He cupped her cheeks and smiled at her. She always loved it when he used Kim's pet name for her too.
"Love you."
"Love you too." He thanked Trudy again and finally he was alone to finish doing the preparations in the house.
Kim wrapped the plush white robe around her after having showered post spa. "This is perfect Nicole."
"We both needed that." Nicole pulled her by the waist as the two of them headed towards the spa parlours.
"Any plans for valentine's day?" Nicole asked Kim, even though she already knew the fine details of Adam's plan.
"Low key movie with some wine with Adam and the kids." Kim shrugged. They never did much on Valentine's Day and she was okay with it. "You?"
"Date night with Zoe, we'll be doing our nails in front of a chick flick" Nicole had never settled down after her divorce and the attack but she seemed content that way.
"I wonder if Adam would mind if I joined you guys."
"Just ask him." She smiled, knowing what he had planned for her. Kim fired a quick text to Adam before they were called in for their massage.
Adam was setting the candles all over the house to be lit later when his phone dinged with a message from Kim. Is it okay if I ditch move night and I take Allie to Nicole's for girl's night? Adam sent her a quick reply before he returned to his task at hand. Nicole had agreed to text him when they were ready for their massages so he could make the phone call to the florist for the next step of the plan. After that, he'd have to wait for Kim to make it back home so they could finally enjoy the night as a couple as opposed to being mom and dad.
"I swear Nicole, we should do this more often." Kim spoke softly as her muscles were being worked.
"We should do this a monthly thing with the kids, could be fun."
"Count me in." They made light conversation here and there until their sixty minute was over.
"Come on let's grab a shower and head to get the girls." Kim's body was more relaxed than it had been in a long while. Kim was pushing her hair away from her face when a delivery girl came in with a large bouquet of flowers, addressing herself to the woman at the desk.
"I have a delivery for Kimberly Ruzek?" Kim was surprised to hear her name and she looked at Nicole with a questioning glance.
"I'm Kimberly Ruzek."
"Here you go ma'am." The girl handed her the flowers and was on her way.
"What is my husband up to Nicole?"
"I have no idea." Nicole grinned.
"Liar." She put the bouquet on the counter and removed the card, reading what's in it.
I know you must be surprised to be getting flowers all the way here and I know that we don't usually celebrate Valentine's Day but I thought we could mix it up this year. Your first stop after what I'm hoping was a relaxing massage is to get your pretty nails done. They're waiting for you at nail salon.
I love you
Adam xx
"He's crazy." Kim laughed.
"Yeah, crazy in love with you." Nicole smirked. "Just go with it."
"Fine, I need to go for a shower first." Nicole took the flowers from her sister and let her shower and change back into her clothes before she had to drive them to their first destination. "How long have you known about this?" She accused her sister and Nicole changed as well.
"A while." She stayed vague.
"And Adam totally paid for today didn't he?" Nicole stayed mum, giving Kim the answer she needed.
"Fine, play coy." Nicole only laughed. She thought it was sweet what Adam was doing. Nicole drove them to the nail salon on the card and they two of them got treated, Kim going with a deep red, not knowing what to expect next. When they were done, the woman gave Kim another envelope.
Now that your nails are all beautifully painted, you need a dress to go with that so follow Nicole to this address and I hope you like it.
I Love You
Adam xx
"He's not crazy Nicole, he's insane." She wrote Adam's less than perfect handwriting.
"Let the man pamper you for a change."
"Fine, let's go." Kim kept gushing at how sweet but crazy Adam was the short ride to the dress shop but Nicole was more than happy for her baby sister. The clerk came to greet them and when Kim gave her name, the young girl gave her a smile and went behind the counter to retrieve a box for her.
"Here you go Mrs. Ruzek."
"Thank you." She smiled at both Nicole and the girl and saw a small note attached it.
I helped daddy pick it, I know you'll look beautiful in it.
Allie xx
"I don't know what I did to deserve all of this." Kim's eyes were filled with happy tears.
"You're a great cop and an amazing wife and mom so that's what you did to deserve this. Go try it on." Kim took the box towards the waiting room but Nicole stopped her just in time, asking the girl for the other box. "Read the note for that one when you're in there." Kim only laughed, knowing that note was for her eyes only. She took the two boxes and went to hide behind the curtain.
This one is a little something for me.
I love you xx
Kim blushed alone behind the curtain when her eyes fell on the matching bra and thong in the box, a red that was close to the color she had on her nails. She slipped the dress on and smoothed the front with her hands, looking at herself in the mirror before stepping out to show Nicole. The dress was navy blue with a very modest, boat neckline and short cowl sleeves. The waist was accentuated with a belt made out of the same material of the dress but what wasn't so modest was the slit that went high against her thigh, the bottom of the dress flirting with her ankles. When she stepped out of the dressing room and swept her hair to the side, Nicole clapped her hands together.
"You look beautiful Kim."
"My daughter and husband have good taste. All I need is shoes but let me guess, that's our next stop?"
"Nope, Adam thought about that too." Nicole had retrieved the shoe bag in her car while Kim was changing. "Next stop is home." She gave Kim the bag so she could change into the heels.
"Who's watching the kids?" She suddenly panicked.
"Kevin has Dylan and Trudy has Allie, stop worrying Kim."
"I can't help it."
"That just means that you're a good mom. Now come on, your husband is waiting for you." They exited the store with everything Adam had picked out for Kim and they headed towards the house.
"Tell me what else he has planned Nicole."
"No chance in hell." The rest of the drive was spent with Kim nagging Nicole but she stayed mum, annoying Kim beyond everything.
Adam finished buttoning his shirt when he received a text from Nicole that they were on their way back home. Most of dinner was done and all he had to do was heat up the sauce and make the pasta. The cake was setting in the fridge since morning so all he had to do now was light the candles that he had set all over the house. He secured his cuffs just as the front door opened.
"Adam?" Kim asked tentatively.
"You look beautiful." He was leaning against the living room wall, his hands stuffed in his pockets.
"And you look sexy." He was wearing his black dress shirt with the first few buttons undone and dark grey suit pants.
"You always did love that suit." He walked to her and helped her with her coat, revealing the final product. He knew she would look beautiful in the dress but she took his breath away. Her make-up was done at a minimum and her hair was swept to the side.
"Oh I've always loved it alright." She wrapped an arm around his neck and pulled him down for a kiss. "Loved taking it off of you." She deepened the kiss.
"There is a lot of time for that darling. How about some wine?" He pulled himself away from her and took her hand in his.
"Lead the way." She smiled at him and followed him, the candle light giving their main floor a romantic glow. "Adam, this is beautiful."
"Never as beautiful as you darling." He let go of her hand and pulled two wine glasses from the cabinet and pouring them each a glass of red while Kim put the roses in a vase.
"You know, you didn't have to do all of that." She took the glass Adam gave her, taking a small sip.
"When was the last time that we were able to have the house all to ourselves?" He gave her an expectant look and she shrugged, the memory of a night like that too distant to remember. "Exactly so I decided to give my beautiful wife a day to get pampered and a night just for the two of us."
"Thank you for today."
"You're very welcome." He took a sip of his wine and returned to the stove to start making dinner.
"Are we having your Fettucini Alfredo?"
"Chicken Fettucini Alfredo. I decided to switch it up."
"It smells amazing." Kim set her glass of wine on the kitchen table and wrapped her arms around Adam's waist. "You smell amazing." His cologne was teasing her nostrils and she wanted nothing more than to take that suit off of him but he had gone through all of that trouble to make dinner and she was going to enjoy it with him.
"Our daughter has amazing taste, you look beautiful in that dress." He turned his head over his shoulder and smiled at her.
"Just wait and see the amazing taste my husband has because that little red number I'm wearing underneath this dress is going to blow his socks off." She whispered seductively in his ear, making him shudder with want.
"I'm looking forward to get you out of that dress then." His pants were tight around him and he knew she was doing it on purpose. Kim pulled away as he pulled the cooked pasta off the stove and she topped both their glasses of wine while Adam put the finishing touches to the food. He brought the food to the table while Kim did the same with the wine and they enjoyed a quiet dinner together. Adam had forbidden her to bring up either work or the kids and they ended up talking childhood stories and Kim was laughing of the stories of a young Adam getting into all kinds of troubles, sometimes without even trying.
"This was fun, I haven't laughed so much in a long time." She got up and started emptying the table.
"Those can wait." Adam took the plates she had in her hands and set them back on the table. "I get to enjoy some alone time with my wife without our two amazing but loud kids so we're not spending time on the dishes." He pulled her gently by the waist and kissed her.
"What do you suggest then Mr Ruzek?" She unbuttoned the first button she found off his shirt.
"Exactly what you have on your mind Mrs Ruzek." He whispered against her lips.
"Let's not waste time then." With both hands firmly on his chest, she kissed him again, pushing him towards the stairs and their room. The stairs were littered with candles on each step but Adam and Kim were kissing so Kim wasn't in any shape to tell him that it was a fire hazard and that he should have known better. When they reached the landing, Adam pulled on the belt at her waist, the material now flowing freely against her body.
"I have a surprise for you."
"Adam, no more surprises." Kim was practically begging. "Today was enough."
"Not this time." He smirked. "Close your eyes." Kim did as she was told with a smirk.
"What are you up too Adam?"
"Just a little bit longer." He whispered against her ear as he placed his hand over her eyes, making sure she wasn't peaking. He walked them into their room and smiled at his handy work. He had bought several bouquets of roses that he had put on the desks, candles burning here and there, in the middle of the bed, lay his last surprise. "Ready?"
"Yes." She exhaled as Adam removed his fingers.
"Open." Kim's breath hitched in her throat as she took in the décor of their room but what took her breath away was what was on their bed. There was a sign that said Marry Me. Tears of happiness prickled her eyes.
"Adam."
"Happy Valentine's Day darling."
"Happy Valentine's Day baby." She turned around and wrapped her arms around his neck. "There's just one problem with this, we're already married." She chuckled as her lips grazed against Adam's
"I know but we've been married for ten years now and I want us to renew our vows. I want us to fly out of Chicago and I want to promise to you forever in front of our friends, in front of our kids."
"Yes." Kim chuckled. "Yes I'll marry you." She nodded and Adam's lips found hers in a burning kiss. Her fingers found the bottom of Adam's shirt and pulled it out of his pants while he pulled her dress over her head, their lips parting only briefly. Kim made quick of undoing Adam's shirt and letting it drop to the floor before working on his belt as his hands roamed her arms and back.
"I do have amazing taste." He took a step back and looked at Kim from head to toe, wearing nothing but the lingerie he had gotten her.
"I won't ask you how you feel about it because it's pretty obvious." She smirked, his pants riding low on his hips, his erecting obvious through his briefs.
"Oh I definitely love it." His eyes were dark with lust.
"But you're too overdressed." She took a step forward and pushed his pants down, Adam toeing his shoes off and letting her remove his pants. "That's better." She kissed him and he hoisted her against his hips, her heels falling to the floor and her legs wrapping securely around his ass. He trailed kissed down her neck as he lowered her gently on the bed.
"I love you." He nipped her lips. "So much." He found her neck. "I'm one lucky bastard." He trailed kissed down her chest.
"And I'm the luckiest girl in Chicago. Her breath was becoming labored as Adam kissed his way down her body. "Adam." She moaned as his lips found the inside of her thighs.
"Let yourself go." He moved her panties aside and inserted two fingers inside of her folds, making her moan loudly. His lips still kissing her legs as his fingers pumped in and out of her. Her hands fisted the sheets as her orgasm was building, her breathing becoming ragged. When he was sure she was close, he kissed his way back up to her lips as his fingers curled inside of her, pushing her the rest of the way over the edge. He kept pumping her as she arched her back, riding the waves of her orgasm. Her chest was heaving as she tried to return her breathing to normal. "I hope you have enough energy for more darling." He pushed a strand of hair out of her eyes.
"I do just as long as you can keep it up." She turned to her side and pushed Adam on his back, her lips finding his neck as she straddled his hips.
"Oh, I can keep it up." He tried to raise his chest but she pushed him back down.
"Oh no you don't, not yet." She pissed her way down and her tongue darted out of her lips as she found the top of his briefs. "How much do you want it?"
"No playing." He simply said and Kim knew that he wasn't looking for any foreplay. She lowered his boxers and threw them behind her. She removed her panties and simply straddled him, lowering herself onto him.
"Kim." He ran his hands along her taught back as she slowly started moving up and down. He found clasp of the bra and removed it, discarding it to the side. "You feel so good." His hands had free reign to explore her body as she rode him, her head thrown back.
"So do you." She moaned, her hands running against his chest. He used the momentum as she slid back down on him to roll them around, pinning Kim against the mattress. His lips found her neck as he thrust in and out of her, Kim's hand at the nape of his neck, the other one running her nails against his back. He pulled her leg higher against his side, giving him a better angle, Adam speeding his thrusts.
"Harder." Her voice was hoarse and low, prompting Adam to speed his thrusts, hitting deep inside of Kim each time, the two moaning each other's names. Adam's back became taught under Kim's fingernails as his thrusts became more desperate. She knew that he was so very close and she contracted her pelvis muscles, increasing the blood flow to his groin. With four more thrusts, he emptied himself inside of Kim with a groan, Kim screaming his name. He leaned his head in the crook of her neck as he tried to catch his breath.
"Wow." He panted against her skin.
"Mmmm." Kim was exhausted, her body blissfully sore.
"That good huh?" His laugh vibrated against her skin.
"Mmmm." Adam laughed again, pulled out of her and pulling her to him as they both caught their breaths, sweat shining on their skin.
"Best Valentine's Day yet." Kim smiled as she kissed Adam's peck.
"Is there any chance you have space for desert?" He pushed a damp lock of hair away from her forehead.
"You wiped me out, I have no more energy." She sighed.
"I meant actual desert."
"Come on Adam." She moaned. "How many more surprises do you have?"
"Well it's not a surprise per se. It was part of dinner but someone had other plans." He smirked, pulling himself away from her embrace and slipping his briefs back on.
"I didn't see you complaining." She giggled as she pulled the sheets against her chest.
"Oh I'd never complain darling." He leaned down and kissed her. "I'll be right back."
"Not going anywhere." She said back down on the bed.
Adam blew every candle on his way down to the kitchen where he took the cake Allie had baked out of the fridge, bringing a plate and a knife with him. He wanted to show Kim their daughter's handiwork before digging into it.
"Allie played chef this morning." He sat down on the bed, Kim propping herself on her hand to see.
"It looks amazing." It was a chocolate cake with the words Be My Valentine on it.
"It smells pretty great too." He handed her the two forks and plate before cutting it and putting a large enough slice for the two of them.
"Our daughter is full of talents." Kim smiled as she took the first bite.
"Both of our kids." He echoed as he tasted it himself. "This is amazing."
"You are amazing Adam. Thank you for today, it was really nice."
"Anything for my beautiful wife." He leaned over and kissed her. "I love you."
"I love you too, more than anything in the world." They ate the rest of the cake and they snuggled together in bed, enjoying the rest of their evening alone, ready for another lifetime of love.
A/N: So Adam had an extra ace up his sleeve when he asked Kim to marry him again, this time with their kids present. I really hope that you guys liked it and please take a few seconds to review before you go, your thoughts always mean the world to me. - Sarra
