Adam was awake looking at Kim as she slept. He had been awake for awhile now and didn't want to wake her. He knew she needed to sleep. And she looked peaceful. He noticed her eye lashes fluttering a bit. Just before she started to move and scrunch her body a bit. It looked like she was stretching a little. He also heard her making noises. Her eyes fluttered open just a smile broke out over her face. "You stayed?" Kim whispered. "Yeah. You asked me to. I hope you are okay with it." Adam asked her. "Of course. Waking up next to you was nice. I felt safe all night. Thank you for last night by the way. I really needed that." Kim kissed his neck and then his chest. "Your welcome! You needed someone to talk to. You need someone to support you going forward with your family." Adam kissed her head after replying to her. "Is this all to much for you?" Kim asked scared to know the answer. "Absolutely not! My family is a mess too. But they don't attack me verbally. They don't break me down mentally. It's just a different level of mess." Adam revealed.
"Thank you! Do you always sleep in your boxers?" Kim asked realizing how undressed he was. "Yeah I do. Was that okay?" Adam asked wondering what she was thinking. "Um yeah. Just making things tough. Seeing what I'm missing is making it harder to stay away." Kim admitted. "So I could be very smug right about it but I won't. All I will say is seeing you in that tiny tank top yesterday was pretty brutal. So we are in the same boat." Adam admitted. Seeing her body yesterday was crazy hard for him. "But your not scared all the time. I'm so afraid to go there with you. We've talk about some of those reasons. And I knows it's irrational but I don't know how to change that. But I really am trying." Kim wanted him to know how hard this was for her and that she really was trying to get past the past.
"I know you are. The more you open up the more I see how you are trying. And I am scared. Scared that I could hurt you physically. Scared that we won't get there. Scared the kids won't accept me. Scared you past will always hang over us. But I'm willing to try because I really like you. Because I really care about you." Adam lifted her face so he could look deep into her eyes. Kim had tears in her eyes from his words. She took the moment to kiss him deeply. He felt the tears on his skin as he deepened the kiss. Prying her mouth open allowing his tongue to explore her mouth once more. When they broke the kiss Kim was smiling again. "When do you have to leave?" Kim asked running you fingers over his skin. "It's still early. I have an hour before I need to shower. When will the kids we up?" He asked letting his own fingers explore her skin. "7. So we have an hour." Kim looked up and saw his eyes shining bright.
"Okay well I can ask you a truly intimate question?" Adam watched her nod nervously. "When you were with Paul. Were your needs satisfied? I feel like that might be holding you back as well." Adam was a cop. He could read people and he read her loud and clear. "Um no. Not exactly. Um yes I got off. But it was boring. The same thing every time. Any effort I made to change things up were also refuted. There was no foreplay. No attention paid to anything other than the vaginal canal. So over all no." Kim admitted shyly. "Well that's a big problem and probably why you are also scared to try again. So tell me. Tell me what you need. What you want." Adam pleaded with her. "I want to feel safe. I want to know I will never be beaten again. I want to know that my experience matters too. I want to feel heard." Kim looked up and saw nothing be acceptance. "What do you need? Intimately?" Adam asked knowing it was hard to talk about. "Um I always enjoyed having attention to my breasts. I know that are huge and veiny because of the size. But it brings me pleasure. I haven't had that since I met Paul." Kim started to fidget and look around like she was having a hard time talking about it.
"Hey I knows there more. What is it? You can tell me anything. You know that." Adam urged her to speak. "I have a spot, more like an area that always feels amazing but it's been largely ignored." Kim tried to explain knowing it wasn't easy. "Okay so tell me." Adam begged now. "Can I show you?" Kim asked scared to take this step. "Of course." Adam was shocked she sounded so scared. She grabbed his hand, shocking him more. She moved his hand to her the area just above the clit. She allowed his fingers to touch that area. With wide eyes he watched her body shutter at the touch. "One more question. Has anyone ever gone down on you before?" Adam knew the answer already but needed to confirm. He watched her shake her head no. "Okay so here's the deal. You are important. Your experience matters. You will never be beaten by me or anyone else if I can help it. All of these things you told me that were ignored will never be ignored again. I promise you that. But more than anything I promise you nothing you told me was strange. Except for how can anyone not like these breasts. They are amazing and I can't wait to get my hands and mouth on them." Adam proclaimed.
"Do you want me to remove my hand?" He asked unsure of where this was going. "No it feels good. I'm scared but it feels too good to stop you." Kim admitted. "Can I please make you feel good? I want to show you some attention. Paying specific attention to those ignored places." Adam pleaded with his eyes. "I'm scared but I trust you with this." Kim felt him remove his hand and move towards her shirts. He slowly removed them going slow Incase she changed her mind. "If it's too much just tell me. I will stop if you say so." Adam whispered as his eyes laid on her bare breasts for the first time. "Incredible!" Adam slowly and painstakingly started to lick around the full breast mound. "Let me know you are okay as I go. You don't have to be silent. I prefer you not be silent." Adam needed to know that she was okay and enjoying it.
As he got to her nipple on the right side since it was closest to his mouth he heard her starting to breath heavier. He rested his hand on her lower back holding her steady. He blew warm air on the nipple watching it become erect. He opened his mouth to suck on the erect bud tugging it with his lips softly. He heard her moan softly. He opened his mouth again before taking the full nipple in his mouth to suck on it. Kim started to squirm under his touches, under his lips. He moved his hand down to lift her leg and bring it over his hip opening her wide. He moved his back to her abdomen slowly sliding her sleep shorts and underwear down. He opened his eyes to look at her face to see if she was okay. When she saw she looked peaceful he proceeded back to touch her core again. He had no plans to go inside her he just needed to pay attention to the spot that had been ignored.
His fingers played with her clit before spending time on that spot she showed him. He felt her body bucking and squirming under him. "Let it go darling. It's perfect. You are perfect. Enjoy the moment and let it all go." Adam whispered as he took her breast back in his mouth. She bucked her hard just before she had her first orgasm is years that was brought on by another person. Her body shuttered wildly against his. As she slowed he removed his fingers to pull her tight against his chest. "Are you Okay now?" Adam asked her as he felt her body heaving still. "Yes. Thank you baby!" Kim kissed his chest but didn't move much. "That will be a small example of how life together will be. I promise." Adam kissed her head as he ran his fingers up and down her back.
"Thank you for not running with all my baggage. You have no idea how much that means to me." Kim whispered against his chest. "Darling. This what people do in relationships. They support each other and handle the baggage. It's sad how much he messed with your head. I don't want that for you or the kids. I want to see you come alive again. I know she's in there just dying to come out again. So today while you are off from work I want you to go visit Blackjack and I want you to do something for you. Manicure, pedicure, massage, something special just for you. Okay? Can you do that for me?" Adam asked as she snuggled against him. "Yeah I will try. Can't always get appointments though. But I will definitely try." Kim answered listening to his heart beat. "I think we need to start getting up. I don't want to leave this bed with your body pressed against me but the kids will be up soon and I have to start getting ready for work. Are you okay with me showering here?" Adam wasn't sure how that felt for her. He felt like they made head way this morning towards speeding up the pace but he still wasn't sure.
"Yeah that's fine. I'm not sure I'm ready to shower together but I'm fine with you using it." Kim looked up at him as she spoke. "Thank you. I'm gonna put my clothes on and head to the car to get my bag. Be right back." Adam moved away but kissed her chest right over her heart. It was sweet and simple but very intimate. Kim covered up before the kids woke and entered the room. She didn't need the kids to see her naked. Once she was covered up she headed to grab towels for Adam to use. She set the towels in the bathroom and turned on the shower for Adam. He returned to the room as she heading out if the bathroom. "Thank you for starting the shower for me and for the towel. I will be quick so you can get in." Adam kissed her lips before heading into the bathroom. He didn't close the door all the way not caring if Kim could see him naked or not.
He showered quick before he stepped out to dry off and get ready for the day. He brushed his teeth and did his hair before stepping out to see her sitting on the bed waiting for him. "Feel better now?" Kim asked. "Of course. Did you get a show?" Adam asked wiggling his eye brows at her with a smug smile. "Nope! I didn't look! I'm not snooping on you perv!" Kim laughed as she poked his chest. "Oh yeah I'm such a perv! You are a mess right now! Go shower. I will wait for you." Adam patted her butt laughing along with her. "Fine be right back!" Kim kissed him before heading into the shower. She took longer than Adam had but it was still fairly short. When she returned she was partially dressed in a bra and panty set and a tank top.
"Damn darling! How am I supposed to leave when you look like that?" Adam stood and walked towards her. "Well I'm throwing pants on now. I hate taking jeans into the bathroom. I feel like they are harder to get on then. And it's hard enough with the cast on." Kim showed him the jeans she was about to put on. "Cute. I like you better this way but they are cute. Now let me help you with them." Adam helped her get her jeans on. Luckily they weren't tight so it wasn't that bad. She was able to button them pretty well. Adam helped her get her boots on and secured over her pant legs. She definitely needed help with that. He then helped her get the sling on before she headed back to brush her teeth.
After they were both fully ready for the day they headed to check on the kids. "Um what are you two doing?" Kim looked at both her kids playing in the floor with their toys. Adam tried not to laugh because he knew he shouldn't laugh at the unwanted behavior but he truly couldn't help it. Kim glared at him which caused him to laugh harder. "We playing!" Mia replied like nothing was wrong. "Okay but aren't you supposed to be in bed still?" Kim asked shaking her head. "No!" Milo laughed. "Great! Well let's go potty and then get you two dressed for the day. Then breakfast!" Kim got the kids into the bathroom, one on the toilet and one on the training toilet. When they finished Kim helped them to wash their hands and then brought them back to their room. Adam was still in their room where he picked their outfits for the day.
He helped Kim change the kids into their outfits before they headed downstairs for breakfast. He helped her prepare breakfast which was tough with the cast in a sling. After the kids were fed they got the kids in the car and headed towards the daycare. Adam followed behind her so he could help with the kids. Two kids and one good arm is a bad mix. They parked and got the kids into the daycare. "Okay I have to head into work. Take care today. And thank you so much for trusting me earlier. I know you were scared but you were beyond brave. I'm so proud of you Darling!" He hugged her tight kissing her temple as he held her. "I was scared but I'm happy I let you in. I haven't felt like that in a very long time. It was amazing but I think you knew that already." Kim somewhat joked trying to keep it lite.
"Yeah I did! Now go do something for you! I will see you later. Bye darling!" Adam kissed her lips before starting to head out. "Bye baby! Be safe!" Kim waved as he walked towards his car. Kim drove off to the stables as Adam headed to the district. Adam arrived and headed in jogging to not be late. He passed by the front desk seeing Platt giving him the evil eye. He just ignored her, he didn't have time for that. As he entered the bullpen he noticed he was the last one there but luckily he was still on time with one minute to spare. "Morning!" Adam announces as he gets in. "Morning. How's Burgess?" Kevin asked. "Um she's good. When I just left her she was headed to the stables to pet her favorite horse and then do something for herself. Whatever she decides to do." Adam replied shrugging off his jacket.
"Wait did you stay over?" Erin asked. "Um yeah but it's not what you think. We talked after the kids were in bed and then she feel asleep in my arms. I went to leave but she asked me to stay. And yes I showered at her place today, alone." Adam defended himself and Kim really. "What did you guys talk about? If you can tell us?" Antonio asked. "Turns put her family is just as bad as Paul was. She disconnected from them at the same time her marriage fell apart. I'm shocked she's still standing." Adam answered walking to get a coffee. "Wait Paul? Is that the ex husband?" Jay asked. "Yeah. She mentioned that her sister is divorced too and over 10 years later she still calls him the ex. Kim feels like it gives him too much power over her. So she's not doing that. I can't really understand it but if it makes her feel better about it all then cool." Adam made his coffee before heading back to his desk.
"Alright we have a case! And we are one man down so let's keep this tight and clean." Voight added as he entered the room. "Gang bangers shot in rival territory. Let's gear up and head out. We need to check pod footage, do knock and talks and go over the crime scene. Let's go!" Voight explained as they headed to roll up. The team moved out quickly as possible heading to the scene in pairs. As Adam rode beside Al he looks at his phone looking at the photos that Kim was sending him. She had sent several photos of her with Blackjack and even a photo of her riding the horse. The sling was off which he didn't love but the bright smile was wide and that allowed him to relax. They arrived on scene seeing the ME had already arrived.
It didn't take long for the team to realize no one wanted to talk to the cops. So it was a slow process. They were going to have to rely heavily on pod footage. No one in the area had door cameras so that was not an option. They headed back with not much information hoping Mouse had found something. As they arrived back at the district Mouse was still hard at work trying to find who the killers were but had been able to identify the two dead gang banger. The team got to work looking into arrest records and known associates. It was long boring work but it was always best to know who you were up against in and out. As the worked the day got later and no one realized how late it had gotten till the gate opened.
"Um are we expecting anyone?" Antonio asked being closest to the door. "Not that I know of." Erin stated as she saw Platt coming up the stairs with her arms full of food and drinks. Right behind her was Kim and the kids with more drinks for the team. "What's all this?" Adam asked shocked to see them. "Well I knew you guys were knee deep in a case and probably forgot to eat so I brought food and drink for everyone. And the kids wanted to say hi so here we are." Kim answered as the kids ran around the room hugging everyone. "Well this is a very nice surprise. I'm not sure when we will finish this case so I'm really happy to you all." Adam hugged her tight. "I figured that too. So how's it going?" Kim asked worried by the stress lines on his face. "Slow but we are getting there." Adam shrugged not really about how they were doing. "Well eat something and get some kiddo hugs. It helps I promise." Kim offered the advice as her more to talk to other people before heading into the office.
"Hey boss. Got a minute?" Kim asked before entering his office. "Yeah what's up?" Voight asked confused seeing her there. "Um I just wanted to know how long I'm off for. Adam said a couple of days but that's not a real answer." Kim sat down on the couch resting for a bit. "Well I think Monday would be good. Unless you need longer." Voight wasn't sure which since Kim was still new and this was her first injury. "I was hoping to be back sooner. I hate being off and I'm fine to work a desk. You need the help. Let me work, please." Kim begged. Being off with nothing to do was killing her and she felt fine. She needed to work. "Fine tomorrow you can come back but strictly desk duty. You are not going on the streets like that." Voight pointed to her cast. "That's fine! Thank you. Also we brought food. There is a sandwich and a drink you in the bullpen." Kim pointed to her desk where all the food was. "Thank you that was very kind of you." Voight got up and hugged her before heading to grab some food. He of course got the only thing left but he was happy to have something at that point.
"Alright everyone we are leaving. Kids say goodbyes to the team and we are headed home." Kim watched the kids run around giving hugs to everyone before coming to stand next to her. "How about I walk you guys out? I'm sure you will need help with the car seats." Adam followed them down the stairs before looking down at the kids. "One of you had to take my hand as we cross the street." Adam stared letting them choose. Mia reached up taking his hand easily as they walked towards the car. "Babies say bye to Adam." Kim stated as the kids jumped up for hugs. He held them both at once giving them big hugs. "Alright hopefully I will see you guys later tonight. If not I promise I will see you both tomorrow. Be good for your momma okay?" Adam placed them each in the car as Kim buckled them in. "Okay we be good! Bye Adam!" Milo said waving goodbye. "Bye Adam!" Mia waved bye as she sat back in her seat. "Bye kiddos!" Adam waved as he closed the door.
"Well i guess it's my turn for a hug goodbye?" Kim joked. "Oh you get much more!" He leaned down to give you a very passionate kiss holding her tight. "I think that was enough to hold me over till I see you again. By the way I'm back to work tomorrow." Kim was giddy about getting back to work. "Well I hope I see you tonight but I will most definitely see you tomorrow." Adam kissed her again before allowing her to leave. He watched till her car was out of sight. As he headed back in to the bullpen he saw Platt giving him the evil eye. "Sergeant Platt. That's twice today. What can I do for you?" Adam asked her with the most annoying sarcastic smile he could muster. "What is going on with you two?" Platt asked him annoyed already. "Taking things slow. She's had it rough for a long time. She needs a lot of time and understanding. Each time she opens up it breaks my heart. I just want to support her and kids anyway I can. That's all." Adam's head hung low. "You are doing good Ruzek. Just keep it up." Platt shooed him away after that.
"Alright we got a name! Suit up let's go!" Voight yelled as Adam ran up the stairs. They all ended to roll up to get the vests on and gear up. They headed towards the suspect listen to Voight go over all the intel. Mouse sent a photo if the suspect the team so they who they were looking for. Adam texted Kim to let her know they were rolling out on a suspect. He hoped he would get to Kim's tonight but he had to stay focused. As they arrived everyone stayed focused on their main target. They took position around the house and prepared to infiltrate the home. "We aren't waiting for him to run. Not making that mistake again. We all go in hot!" Voight called at just before they entered the home. "Breach! Chicago PD!" Atwater yelled at he kicked in the door. They went through different doors as they started to search the home.
As they searched the home the team heard movement upstairs. Half the team ran up the stairs to find the suspect. "Chicago PD! Stop running!" Jay yelled as they ran towards the foot steps. Adam and Erin right behind him. As they entered the room a fight broke out. Jay was thrown against a wall but Jay punched him throwing the suspect off guard. He took off towards the balcony. Adam followed hot on his trail while Erin checked on Jay. As Adam grabbed onto the suspect he started to fight Adam off. He held on stronger not letting the suspect get away. As they fought they crashed through the railing causing them both to fall to the ground. Jay and Erin were at the edge in second to see if they were okay. Antonio and Kevin were in the yard within seconds to prevent further injury and prevent the suspect from getting away.
"Ruz! You okay?" Kevin asked checking his friend over for injuries. "Yeah I'm good. Just sore. Let's finish this case." Adam groaned as he got up from the yard. "Good cause Kim's gonna kill you when she sees you like this." Kevin laughed taking in his friends appearance. "Yeah I know but I got lucky today. Let's head out." Adam shuddered thinking about Kim seeing this. "Ruzek! You okay?" Voight asked as they met near the cars. "Yeah Im good boss. Ready to finish up so I can head home." Adam got in the car and headed towards the district. When they arrived the suspect was thrown in a holding cell while Adam got an ice pack for his shoulder. Now the adrenaline wore off his shoulder was starting to hurt. He must have landed it on when they crashed.
He wrote up his reports and didn't even wait for the case to be finished. He headed out the door and headed right towards Kim's. He didn't even call he just needed to see her. As he drove all he thought about was Kim. He pulled up outside her house and took a minute to calm himself before leaving the car. He took his time walking towards the door knocking softly not wanting to wake the kids. He waited till she answered the door. "Hey I wasn't expecting you. Come in." Kim offered. "Yeah thanks. I finished up earlier than expected and was hoping for a sleep over?" Adam offered his best lopsided grin. "You're cute! Come on I was just about to head up." Kim locked up and they headed to her room. "Are we gonna talk about the grass stains on your shirt? Or how you are holding yourself differently?" Kim raised an eye brow reading him like an open book.
"Just a little accident at work. My shoulders hurts but I'm good. Just need you right now." Adam pulled her into his arms. "I'm glad you are here." Kim rubbed his back. "Can we go to bed? Please?" Adam begged. "Yeah of course." Kim lead him to the bed before helping him strip off his shirt knowing his shoulder was sore. They curled up together Kim resting her cast on his chest and her head on his good shoulder. "God thank you for this. This was exactly what I needed." Adam sighed closing his eyes taking in the moment. "Me too. I've missed this. Human contact at an intimate level. I didn't know how much I missed it till you. So just rest here in my arms and everything will be okay. We got this together." Kim kissed his chest as she felt his breathing even out. She was happy became here even if it was only to sleep.
She could tell what happen weighted heavy on his mind and his heart. She was concerned but accidents happen on the job. Injuries happen and this happened to be a bad week. They knew things would get better but they needed to work for it, together. Kim took all comfort his body gave her as she feel asleep. She hadn't realized just how lost she had been before meeting him. How untrue she was to herself. She felt something inside her coming alive again. And it was all thanks to him. Maybe opening up and being free wasn't as scary as she thought. Maybe she just needed to start listening to her heart instead of her head. It was a lot to figure out and think about. But she knew it was worth it, he was worth it. They could get there together, as a family.
