Emma groaned as she awoke from the most peaceful sleep she's had in years. She opens her eyes and looks around the room, then smiles as she feels Clay's arm wrapped tightly around her waist. She looked into his face, he looked so peaceful and young. She leaned forward and kissed him lightly on the lips, causing him to stir beside her.

"Good Morning, handsome." She whispered, moving on top of him.

Clay groaned appreciatively and opened his eyes to look into her baby blues. "Morning, baby."

"What do you say to us sharing a shower, then exploring the city?"

"I think that's a great idea." They kissed lightly again before Emma moved to grab her towel from the day before, wrapping it around her and passing Clay his. They walked towards the bathroom, closed the door, and turned on the shower. They both picked up their earwigs from yesterday.

"You guys hear us?" Emma asked.

"We heard you all night long, Mrs. Screamer," Danny replied, making Emma turn red as a tomato and Clay grin smugly at her.

"Petty Officer Spenser must really be something." Deeks joined Danny in joking with Emma.

"Ow!" Danny and Deeks both said as Steve and Sam slapped the back of their heads.

"Cut it out! Both of you."

"Clay and I are going to shower and then eat at the restaurant in your building."

"Copy, we will have the jammer ready as well as wireless communication devices for you guys to wear at all times. They are also waterproof." Callen added as Sam was berating Deeks and Steve was reprimanding Danny.

"Copy that. See you guys in 30."

They once again removed their earwigs and turned towards each other.

"How do you want to do this? You get in the shower while I turn around or…" Clay started but Emma took his hand.

"Clay, I am fairly certain there isn't anything you haven't seen or touched on me, especially after last night."

Clay was the one blushing after that comment, "right. Why don't you shower first and I'll do my bathroom routine then we switch?"

"Works for me." Emma proceeded to drop her towel, grab a clean one and enter the shower. Clay tried to avoid looking at her perfect body as she climbed into the shower, but he was drawn to her through the mirror. He watched as the water ran down her shoulders, to her back, to her bottom before quickly turning around and scolding himself. He went through his bathroom routine and waited patiently for Emma to finish.

10 minutes later, Emma got out of the shower and stood in front of the mirror. Clay stood behind Emma and removed his towel, climbing into the shower quickly. She couldn't help but watch his muscles constrict as he moved around in the shower. Her eyes were immediately drawn to the perfect pleasure package before she shook the inappropriate thoughts from her head. She quickly ran through her bathroom routine and was finished by the time Clay stepped out of the shower, dressed, and placed his communication devices back on. He was wearing a light blue t-shirt that clung to his biceps and chest with a pair of blue jeans. Emma decided on a light blue sundress and wedge white heels. She carefully secured her communication device as they made their way out of the room.

They walked into the neighboring hotel and placed their names on the list at the restaurant before moving towards the elevator. Emma and Clay knocked on the team's room and they quickly entered, not wanting to draw too much attention.

"Well, if it isn't the happy couple!" Sonny drawled out as he took a swig of beer.

"Hey, Uncle Sonny." Emma smiled at him as Clay avoided making eye contact with any of the team.

Clay and Emma walked over to the table and were fitted with the wireless earwigs and watch.

"Okay, let's address the elephant in the room," Sonny mentioned as he walked towards the ops table. Everyone turned their heads to look at the burly Texan, "what happened last night was horrifying and I'm adding 'listening to my favorite niece and my best friend have sex' to the list of things I never want to do or see again. This might go above spiders, snakes, sharks, and the jungle. So, to let me keep my sanity as well as the sanity of all men involved," Sonny paused to point specifically at Jason and Ray, "please only use PDA or newlywed 'things' when it's absolutely necessary."

"I promise, Uncle Sonny." Emma blushed lightly.

"I make no promises," Clay responded, causing Emma to elbow him lightly in the stomach.

"Why does he get the little love tap? If I had said that, you would have put all your weight behind it." Deeks broke into the conversation causing everyone to look at Emma expectantly.

"That's because Clay's on loan from DEVGRU and I have to return him in good condition, you, on the other hand, are my partner meaning I can make your life a living hell and hurt you, which I plan on doing for the rest of my career." Emma smiled sweetly at him while Sam coughed to cover the light snicker that left him.

Emma reached for the jamming device and slipped it into her pocketbook.

She looked at Clay, "I've got to use the bathroom then we can leave."

Clay nodded and turned to watch her walk away.

Clay turned back to say something to the team but stopped as he noticed that the men on Bravo and Emma's two teams were standing in front of him, standing broad-shouldered and arms crossed.

"What?" Clay looked between the men who narrowed their eyes at him.

"Watch your step, Spenser." Jason gave him a knowing look and before Clay could respond, Emma was out of the bathroom, grabbing his hand and moving towards the door.

Clay and Emma returned to the lobby just moments before their name was called for the reservation. They ate in silence, trying to distract themselves from what happened the night before.

They walked out of the hotel and Emma turned to the water. "What about a nice swim?"

"Anything you want, baby?" Clay smirked down at her and Emma had to conceal an eye roll. She grabbed his hand and they headed towards the beach. They found one of the pool boys from their hotel and he pointed them to the nice bungalow that was reserved for them. Emma stripped off the sundress she was wearing and headed towards the water. Clay watched her for a moment before peeling off his own clothes and chasing after her. He wrapped his arms around her waist, causing Emma to gasp and giggle as he lifted her into the air.

"Blondezilla is really askin' for it." Sonny's southern drawl came through the earwigs.

"If I had done that to her, she would have laid me out of the sand with a left hook," Deeks told Bravo as everyone watched Clay throw Emma into the water.

Clay watched as Emma was submerged underwater momentarily. She came back up moments later and Clay could not take his eyes off of her. The water glistened off her shoulders and chest and water ran from her hair, over her face, and down the valley of her breasts.

"You are so going to get it, Spenser." Emma caught Clay off-guard when she jumped on him, causing him to fall back into the water.

They both resurfaced, giggling and wrapped around each other. They could hear gagging noises coming through the earwigs from Sonny, Deeks, and Danny.

"Watch out boys unless you want to hear some really dirty talk," Emma warned them and suddenly there was complete silence on the other end. "So, Clay, what do you want to do?"

"I say we spend some time here at the beach and then we look for some evidence or whatever you guys need before we take down this son-of-a-bitch."

"I like that idea. What do you say we go for a swim?"

"Sounds good."

"Race you." She took off and Clay chuckled before following her.

"Be careful Clay. Emma is faster than you think. She can out swim me and Commander McGarrett." Junior told him as Clay tried to catch up to Emma.

The guys, Lisa, and Mandy were watching the scene in front of them, Clay had almost caught up to Emma as they raced down the shoreline.

"That's what caught our attention, you know," Danny turned to look at Jason, who just stared at him.

"What?"

"The first time we met Emma, she was down in Hawaii on a case with them," Danny pointed over to Deeks, Sam, and Callen before continuing, "and we were on the beach interviewing someone when the guy they were looking for ran onto the beach and went into the water. He was about 50 yards out and threw a woman off of her surfboard, I guess he thought that would be a faster getaway, anyway, Emma came out of nowhere and jumped into the ocean with her Kevlar vest and everything on. She was right behind him in a blink of an eye and she grabbed onto the surfboard, climbed on, and tackled him into the water before dragging him back to the shoreline." Bravo just stared and blinked at the man.

"Emma? Emma Hayes? Our Emma?" Sonny blinked as he took in the information.

"Yes, Emma is amazing, sir," Junior commented, not taking his eyes off the water.

"You like her or something, son?" Jason asked.

"Not in that way, sir. Emma and I are partners, we spend a lot of time together. She's more like a sister to me. Besides, I have a fiancé. She used to work on the team." Junior smiled as he thought about Tani.

"Yeah, and she can kick ass almost as well as Emma," Danny interjected.

"My daughter? Kicking ass?"

"Yes, Master Chief. Your daughter is a blackbelt in multiple martial arts." Commander McGarrett walked over to the team and addressed Jason.

"And she is a hell of a shot too." Chin chimed in.

"Guys, I don't appreciate you sharing all of my secrets." Emma's voice came over the radio. Everyone focused again on the water where Clay and Emma were getting out of the water. "As nice as this is, don't we need a strategy to get Williams?"

"Nell and Eric have not been able to get verification that Williams is still in the hotel. Deeks, Sonny and Danny are going to do some recon around the warehouse that Williams owns. You and Clay need to be tourists at least for today." Callen replied.

"Why?" Jason asked wanting this over with as quickly as possible.

"Williams is hella paranoid. Especially with Americans. So Clay and I need to, in Uncle Sonny's terms 'PDA and newlywed things'

"Ugh," Sonny grimaced.

"You're trying to kill me aren't you? Is this payback for me not letting you date what was his name when you were a teenager?" Jason huffed out.

"Billy?" Ray asked.

"No, Ricky" Sonny chimed in.

"Spencer, his name was Spencer. The only reason you told me no was because you thought I was talking about Clay." Emma giggled over the coms.

"Yeah, that was the worst ten seconds of my life until now. I'm sitting here watching you make out with Spenser. I think I would rather be shot."

"Dad, you are being dramatic. We all need to focus. Clay and I are going to get dressed and go to some tourist sites. Two of you may want to come along in case Williams or his guys think something is up with us."

"Good idea, Em. Myself, Commander McGarrett, and Agent Hanna will follow behind y'all. But please, remember, I am your father I do not need to see any public groping between you and Spenser. I will need to see a therapist because of what I saw last night as it is."

"What happened to 'ignore and override', daddy?" Emma asked, jokingly.

"There are something's that can't be ignored or overrid."

"LIsten up, the rest of us will stay and monitor your room and the hotel in case William's makes an appearance. We are also going to start thinking strategies for how to get Williams, when and if he appears. We will be in contact with NCIS to see if we can get a scan or blueprint for the hotel as well as any known locations Williams' may have here." Blackburn cut to the chase.

"10-4." Clay called as he watched Emma straightened her dress. He had a flashback to last night when he ran his hands all over her naked body. He shook his head to make the image go away, he needed to focus so he didn't get her or anyone else hurt.

Emma turned to Clay, "what do you think about going to Zona Arqueologica El Rey? It is one of the largest archaeological sites in Mexico and it has so much history surrounding it?"

"Sounds great, after you, babe."

Clay and Emma hailed a cab. "Por favor llevanos a mi esposa y a mi a El Rey. (Please take my wife and I to El Rey.)"

"Si, senor."

Emma and Clay arrived at the Zona Arqueologica El Rey a few minutes later. Clay tipped the driver and helped Emma out of the cab. She wrapped her arms around his as they walked the ruins. They stopped and looked at the beautiful ruins. Emma noticed out of the corner of her eye her dad, Steve and Sam. They were walking in a line complaining that their wives left them to fend for themselves while they were shopping. Clay and Emma walked through the ruins and snapped several pictures. Emma realized that there was someone watching them, a hispanic male in his late twenies. She had briefly noticed him at the hotel yesterday when they checked in. He must be one of Williams' lookout.

Emma turned to look at Clay. She wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him into a deep kiss. She pulled away before running her hands up and down his chest.

"There is a hispanic male, late twenties standing near the wooded area at 3 o'clock. It looks like he is watching us and reporting back to Williams. I noticed him at the hotel yesterday, he is probably trying to figure out if we are a threat or not."

"Em, you and Clay continue with your tour. We will watch the guy. When you are ready to leave, walk back us and talk about the next spot you are going too. We are going to go back to the hotel, Trent, Brock and Junior will follow you to the next tourist destination." Jason ordered.

"Copy."

Clay and Emma walked around for a few minutes more before walking towards her dad. They walked past the group talking about what the do next.

"What do you think about horseback riding?" Clay asked and Emma nodded, smiling.

"I would love to go horseback riding."

Clay and Emma hailed a cab. "Llevanos a la atraccion de paseos a caballo mas cercana, por favor. (Take us to the closest horseback riding attraction, please." Emma asked the cab driver, who in turn smiled and gave a nod.

They spent the next two hours riding horses and exploring the area. There was nothing out of the ordinary at this stop so Clay and Emma took a cab back to the hotel. As they exited the cab, they walked into the bar across the street. As they entered the bar, they noticed some of the team in their playing pool. They walked over to the bar and ordered some drinks. As they were waiting, Mandy came over to get a refill.

"Any updates?" Emma asked as she wrapped her arm around Clay's waist.

"The boys were able to see some movement at the warehouse but could not identify Williams. We are running facial recognition on the guy who was following the two of you around today. Nothing yet, but anything can happen."

"What's next?" Clay asked Mandy while kissing the top of Emma's head.

"It looks like the two of you will be on your honeymoon for awhile longer." Mandy chuckled as she got her refill and started back towards Jason and the others. She paused for a moment before turning to them, "the two of you make a lovely couple… it's nice to see young love." She winked and walked away.

Clay and Emma stared at each other for a moment before she cleared her throat and looked away. They grabbed their drinks before walking to an empty table. Emma sat down beside Clay and put her hand on his thigh.

"We've gotten compliments all day about being a beautiful couple. The waitress this morning, the cab driver, the guide at the horseback riding attraction, Mandy, although that was just a jok…" Clay cut her off by pressing his lips to hers. He cupped the back of her head and deepened their kiss.

They both pulled away gasping for breath. Clay grabbed his beer and took a sip. Emma noticed that the team was trying (and failing) to not stare.

"You want to get out of here?" Emma asked before kissing him again and grabbing his hand, pulling him from his seat and out the door.

They jogged over to the hotel, giggling as they entered the elevator. Emma grabbed the back of Clay's neck and latched their lips together. Clay grabbed her hip and wrapped his unoccupied arm around her waist. They were kissing passionately as the elevator opened to their floor. They stumbled from the elevator and moved down the hall while still tangled in each other. As they made their way towards the door, Emma took the room key out of her pocketbook and opened the door as Clay kissed back of her neck and ran his hands over her body. They stumbled through the door and locked it behind them.

They stared at each other in the dark momentarily before Emma took the jamming device out of her pocket and turned it on. It would not mess with the video, but would mute the audio in the room so no one would be able to hear what was said. Emma grabbed Clay's hand and walked towards the bathroom. She took off her hearing device so that no one could hear what they were talking about. Clay did the same thing.

"We definitely have chemistry." Clay whispered to her and their eyes met in the mirror.

"I think… I think that we just need to have the time of our lives while we are here. I know this is a job but there is not reason why we shouldn't have some fun with each other."

"You mean no-strings attached fun?" Clay asked.

"There are too many strings for it to be anything else, Clay." Emma whispered to him. Clay knew she was right. String number one: her father; string number two: their jobs; string number three: locations and so many more.

"You really want to do this?"

"I find you attractive, I find myself staring at you and wanting to touch you. Clay… I want you and this is the only way I can think of to have you. I know it isn't much and you deserve, we deserve better but this is what I can offer right now. So, I literally just poured my heart out to you and you are standing their staring at me."

"I want you too. And I will take you anyway I can get you." Clay pulled her towards him and began removing her dress.
