"I am exhausted." He whined as he stepped in her apartment. Kim was a few steps ahead of him, turning on the lights and leaving the containers of leftovers that Anne had insisted on them to take, inside the fridge.

"You are exhausted? I was the one playing with the kids all afternoon. I even had to stop a few fights. It was like being in the classroom with them."

"Well, I did go to work this morning and also, I'm very sorry to tell you this darling, but I don't recall any of them forcing you to play with them."

Kim turned around to see him and he was amused to find the most adorable outing face. "True, but I miss them so much. How could I turn down a playdate like that?"

"Aww, you are too darn cute." He was quick to approach her and kiss her pouting lips, capturing the bottom one between his teeth and slightly pulling it. "What do you say if we take a relaxing shower together?"

"Hmm, do you also want a playdate detective Ruzek?" She said in a flirty tone, as her hand slowly began to go up and down his chest.

"I was actually thinking about relaxing to wash away the exhaustion, but now that you put it like that, how can I turn down a playdate with you?" His arm snaked her waist pulling her flush to his body. "Should we get the water running?"

"Most definitely."

The warm water over their bodies was indeed soothing, but the intimate moment between them was truly energizing for both.

"How are you feeling Ms. B?" He asked once he stepped in the bedroom holding two bottles of beer in one hand and the folder his aunt had given them in the other. Adam was wearing only his boxers, matching his girl who was also only in her underwear lying in bed and covered by the white and smooth sheet.

She just looked at him and smiled, totally in love.

"Well, I'm still exhausted but elated. In fact, I'm more than willing to go for another round."

"You don't have to tell me twice." His smug crooked smile made her stomach turn, as he climbed back on the bed and handed her the bottle. "But I really want to talk about a couple of things before I can allow myself to get lost in your body one more time." He said confidently as his lips search for that exact point in her neck he knows triggers all kinds of sensations in her. He smiled to himself when he noticed the goosebumps covering her skin after dropping a kiss on the desired spot. "What do you want to start with? This?" He lifted the folder up. "Or your amazing job offer?"

Kim took the folder out of his hand, anxious to see all the information in it. "The house!"

"The house it is."

They started to look at the papers to find the complete file of the property. There were pictures that allowed them to see some details that they had missed during their visit to the house, a list of the services that were close by and on the last page the listing price and payment plans the owners accepted.

"What do you think?"

"I think it's doable. I mean, we might be a bit tight but I think it's something we can do. How about you?"

"I loved the house. I can totally picture us building our life there, starting our own family. And as much as I agree that we might be a little tight at first, I think it's worth it." He explained in all seriousness. She loved the look on his face, to see how concentrated and devoted to this topic he was.

"I totally agree with you." Her smile couldn't be brighter even if she tried to.

"So should we put an offer on it?" He asked for confirmation, and her joyful nodding face gave him the answer he was waiting for.

"Yes!" She threw herself in him and cradled his face between her hands attacking his lips with hers. "Yes, we're doing this."

"We are, Belle." Not it was his lips smacking hers. "Tomorrow morning, first thing, I'm calling Aunt Esther so she can start the paperwork for us.

"Perfect."

Kim got a little stiff to the sound of the woman's name and Adam noticed instantly.

"What's wrong? The only reason why I'm not calling her now is because I think it's a bit late. Do you want me to write to her now?"

"No. It's not that. Tomorrow really is perfect." She sighed. "I was just wondering about what your aunt said today."

"Which part?"

"You know which part." Adam leant his head back against the wall, he had an idea of where her comment was coming from, and the words that she said next confirmed his theory. "Why is it that everytime we talk to someone about our ideas for the future, someone says something about you being a party guy?"

"Because I was. I used to have this speech about not believing in love and relationships." He shrugged his shoulders. "I guess it has to do with my parents. I don't know. The thing is that I always thought that Kit was the one cut out for that, not me."

"And why is it different now?"

"My life changed a lot, Kim, including meeting you. All that made me realize what I really wanted. My prior lifestyle was like a facade, you know? A mask I used to hide from my fears. No one could hurt me if I wasn't serious about anyone. Does that make any sense?"

Kim only nodded. "That's all there is to it, I promise."

"Are you sure?" The brunette asked concerned.

"One hundred percent." He answered without breaking eye contact with her.

"Ok."

"Good. Then I'm calling Aunt Esther tomorrow."

"Adam?"

"What?"

"I love you."

"I know, and I love you too."

"I just really don't want you to do anything if you're not one hundred percent sure."

"Kim, believe me." His hand cupped her cheek. "I am and I really want to do this. I would never lie to you, especially about this." His lips softly brushed against hers. "I promise."

"Ok." She nodded. "We'll make the call tomorrow." Her smile found its way back to her face.

"Yes." He said happily entwining his fingers with hers. "Now, could you please tell me about your job?"

"Oh gosh, yes. Cathleen wants me to take the role of teacher coordinator and help in all the grade levels, respecting everyone's teaching style but making sure we are all on the same page."

"I totally see you in that role."

"Yeah, I mean I don't know if I see myself, I always pictured myself inside the classroom, but I think it's a really cool opportunity and like I told you before, a huge challenge."

"A challenge you can most definitely face, Belle. You were made for this."

"Thanks babe."

"So what's holding you back?"

"Well for starters, I love being a teacher. I'm going to miss that interaction with the kids, because while I will still see them and work with them and their teachers, they're not gonna be my kids anymore, you know?"

"I get that. I know how important those kids are for you, but this way your desire to make everyone's life at least a little bit better will have a farther reach. Don't you think so?"

"Yeah." She said. "That's the same thing Cathleen told me."

"See? We have a point. When do you have to get back to her?"

"I don't know. Monday I guess."

"Well you have a couple more days to think it through."

"Yes, but there's something else that is kind of making me doubt."

"What's that?" He asked, a bit concerned.

"If I decide to take this, she want me to take some courses on leadership and other professional development workshops."

"That sounds really cool."

"Yeah, but it's during the summer, so our trip will have to be modified and I don't know if I want to put that off."

"Belle, don't worry about that. We can move the dates around."

"Yeah, but we were really looking forward to it."

"Look, I'm going to be completely honest with you. Yes. It bums me down a bit because I really want us to just be us and have a nice break. But having said that, this is also an amazing opportunity for your career and I don't want to stand in the way of that. We can push the dates around and find another moment to travel. So if you really want to take this job, do it. I support you all the way."

"Yeah?" She asked, still a bit unsure.

"Of course."

Gradually a small and shy smile started to appear on her face. "Well, the pay raise could be very useful for the mortgage payments, and it is a really good chance for me to show myself everything I can do. Do you really think I should try?"

"Darling, go for it. I couldn't be more proud of you."

"Ok, then. I'm doing it."

"So can we finally celebrate?"

"Yeah, I think we can."

She placed her bottle on her night table and grabbed the paper from Adam's lap to place it in the same place where her bottle was to straddle him and look at his face. Her arms hugged his neck and she just stayed there not wanting to move a single inch.

"Damn, you're beautiful." One of his hands was placed on her waist, while the other one was running up and down her back, gently brushing her skin with his fingertips. "Every part of you. Inside and outside." His voice was soft, matching the slow speed of his fingers until his index finger stopped and hooked the back strap of her bra. "May I?"

"Mmm hmm." She agreed innocently before feeling how the garment was loosening up, and Adam gently pushing the straps down her arms.

It didn't matter how many times he had seen that picture, his reaction was always the same, as if he was seeing it for the first time. He let out a deep breath and instantly bit his lower lip while his eyes wandered all over her chest, making Kim let out a soft chuckle. His facial expressions always seemed to amuse her, because she loved that she could still make him feel that way.

She leant back just a little giving him some space to do whatever it was he was meaning to do, and that was when she felt her breasts being cupped by his big hands.

The way kneaded them with enough pressure and care was enough to make her moan and slowly start to move her hips against him.

Adam started to kiss her neck, going up and down slowly making sure all the area was covered. He pulled on her earlobe with his teeth very gently and slowly continued to pepper her collarbone, noticing how Kim began to lean her head back and arch her body, giving him more room to work with.

His head kept going south, kissing the valley of her breasts and tracing a straight line with his tongue. When one of his hands went to her back for extra support she knew just what she was about to feel.

His lips captured one of her nipples, and his tongue was doing wonders with it. Kim's breath began to get more agitated and all her focus was placed on enjoying the moment, but Adam had a different idea.

He held on to her firmly and in a swift move he turned her over, leaving himself on top of her.

His kisses resumed their journey and kept going down until he reached the elastic of her white thong, he played with the darn thing for longer than both them

could actually take, since his hands were ready to pull the piece of underwear down once and for all. Feeling Kim's hip raise in an attempt to have more contact with him hinted to Adam that she was more than ready as well.

As he slid her thing down her long and toned legs, he dropped a few kisses on her thighs enjoying the feeling of the goosebumps against his lips. He carefully spread her legs open, using his hand to caress her inner thighs and play with her center, feeling just how wet she was for him. His fingers slowly glided between her folds, making her body squirm over the mattress in desire for more.

Adam held her hips again and started to kiss her most intimate part. His tongue took its job very seriously and danced with her clit, making her want to explode in his face, and apparently that's exactly what he wanted. He kept going until he made her cum and scream out his name.

"Did you like that, baby?" He asked with confidence and arrogance, he knew how much she had loved it.

"Yes." Kim was still panting, finding it difficult to speak.

"Do you want more?"

"I want you, babe." Her eyes were still closed, showing him that she was still on a high and he wanted to keep her there. He took off his boxers quickly and slipped in her before she could say anything else. The loud moan she let out made him lose it.

"Oh, Adam. Gosh!" She said with her eyes still closed, leaving her mouth slightly open enjoying each and everyone of his thrusts. The look on her face was turning him on even more and when she made eye contact with him he felt like he was about to touch the sky.

Their movements were becoming more passionate and more erratic by the second and they kept it like that until they both climaxed together.

"That was wild." She said with Adam lying on top of her, once her breathing was back to normal.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to."

"Don't be ridiculous. I loved it."

"It was pretty damn amazing. It always is with you." He let out a deep breath. "Can't wait until we go to bed together every night." He smiled against her chest.

"Soon enough, detective. Soon enough."
