"Good evening. How can I help you?" A man asked as Kim walked towards the front desk. "Hello. I'm here to see Officer Ruzek please?" Kim,asked as politely as possible. "And you are?" He ask skeptical of the women before him. "I'm Kimberly Burgess. I'm his fiancé. I know they are having a tough case so I brought food and coffee. So can you please ask Sergeant Voight if I may enter to feed the troops please?" Holding up the food to show she was not lying. "Hold on I will ask." The man seemed annoyed and not convinced she was who she said she was. After a moment or two of the man stammering over his words she was given the green light to head up the stairs.
"I hope y'all are hungry!" Kim announced as she entered the bullpen. All eyes turned to see her, surprised but thrilled. "Kim! What are you doing here?" Adam jumped up to take the bags from her hands. "Well I know this case has been rough. And I'm sure you haven't eaten well or anything at all. So I brought sandwiches and coffee for everyone. 8 different subs, all mediums so there should be plenty of food. All the condiments are on the sides." She explained seeing the happiness on their faces. "Thank you darling! Just what we needed to get through this case." He helped carry everything to the break room and set it up for everyone to dig in. "Any idea when you will be home?" She asked as they set up. "Not sure but I would love for you to stay for a bit while we eat. We can talk for a bit at least." He saw her smile happily letting him know she planned on doing just that.
"Alright everyone dig in!" Kim stepped aside allowing everyone to come in to get some food. She had come prepared with napkins, plates and utensils. "Thank you so much for this!" Each member hugged her as they got something to eat. They all brought their chairs in to the break room to eat together. "No worries! It's the least I can do for you guys. So enjoy!" Kim watched them eat happily. "I assume you got yourself something since you went to Caps? I know how much you love their chicken cheesesteak." Adam watched her smile. "I did! I on,y got a mini sub since it's late. Double meat and cheese, bread scooped out. It was delicious." She smiled knowing he was right, it was her favorite. "How was your first day back?" He asked wanting to catch up. "It was good. A very busy day but I got a lot done and the show went well as always." He saw something in her eyes. Something she was hiding. "What happened? You look like you're hiding something. Not something terrible but not great either." He watched her laugh.
"Damn you for reading me so well. It's not a really big deal but we will probably need to go car shopping soon unfortunately." She sighed heavily loving her jeep, dings and all. "Why what happened?" Adam look confused more than concerned. Kim took out her phone and open the photo app and handed it to him. He gasped loudly causing the others to look over. He handed the phone over so they could see. "Are you hurt?" He asked not caring about the car. "I wasn't even in it. I was walking back to the car from the grocery store. And watched it happen. The guy was literally too short and fat to be riding that huge ass motorcycle and then they both fell into the doors on my car! I called the cops to get an accident report and then called my insurance company who essentially said the car would most likely be totaled due to the age and mileage of the car. So yeah, fun day." Kim got her phone back and put it away.
"We will find you something else that you like just as much. I promise. Now what else happened today? You say it was busy and you got a lot done." He knew moving on before she broke was the right move. "Oh lord lots! So my photoshoot is set for Wednesday morning. They will be there by 5am so I need to be up by 4:30 to get somewhat ready. Not thrilled but whatever. Then I heard back from Brian about the Ellicot City thing and that's all handled. The billboard is down and all the prints are d plans are being mailed to his office for proper disposal. I told him to burn it. Um let's see Jim's heart is doing better now that the thyroid is more under control so he's moving to rehab. So that's very exciting and a relief. I got my gala dress for Paris with the shoes but I might wear black shoes instead. Not sure yet. I got a bridal appointment for Sunday at 9am when the shop opens. And lastly and most exciting for me is I got the fabric I wanted for the dress since it will be in November when the line would be released anyway so they are willing to make the dress using it." Kim smiled thinking of this dress and the perfect fabric.
"Damn girl! You went a little nuts today don't you think?" He watched her pout a little. "I know you multi task and Kaitlyn probably did a lot of it. Now does this mean you decided to go full designer and custom for your wedding dress?" He asked knowing she wasn't sold on that idea. "I think so. That fabric is what's selling me on it. And I love the designs they have. Well most of them. The one is so not happening. It's circa 1997, season 1 Sex in the City Carrie Bradshaw so totally not happening. I'm good with retro but not that. Nude meets ballerina, no thank you!" He loved an epic rant and that was one of them. "Oh I know what you mean!" Erin pulled out her phone pulling up the image. "Yup! That's not happening at all!" She cringed looking at the photo. Adam cracked up seeing such a strong reaction over fashion was normal for her but not in such a negative way.
"Epic rant darling but it's not that bad." He watched her face turn to horror that he could actually like that horrid look. "Yeah no! First off I pretty much wear that same shit daily and it's totally not wedding appropriate. So yeah that means I have 9 other looks to choose from. Which shouldn't be difficult but I like most of them so we shall see." She handed Erin her phone back not wanting to see the ugly dress anymore. "So I know he can't see this fabric you are so in love with but can I?" Erin was very curious why this fabric was so important. "Yeah. It matching the venue perfectly which is why I love it so much. I just have to decide to I want just the bodice in this fabric or the whole dress? And do I keep it sheer behind or line it? Tons of decisions to make but here it is." Kim showed her the picture from the instagram post the company had made sharing its release. "You guys picked the conservatory right?" The couple nodded. "Yeah that's perfect! Omg it's beautiful. I think sheer but that just my opinion. You have the body so why not. Let me see the other looks." Erin really wanted to see what Kim was looking at.
"Okay so to use the fabric I have to choose one of the Spring 2024 styles, which is fine. But here they are." Erin looked it over and noticed clearly the other team members behind her looking at the phone. "I think I'm leaning towards 14. I took out all the short dresses. Not that's not the look I'm going for. But look 14. I think is perfect. It's already the fabric I want and a look that I love. So that's the front runner. And then look 1 through 6 are all in the mix too. It's a lot." She saw Adam looking very amused yet annoyed being the only one not seeing the images. She left the team with her phone and went back to Adam. "Sorry I stole your team." She knew he didn't really care but he was curious as to what was on the phone. "It's all good. Nice seeing you all bonding even if it's against me." He laughed when she acted offended. "Nope just trying to make the right choice to blow your mind that day. I want a picture of your face seeing it for the first time. That's a very special moment that I don't want ruined." She watched as his features turned softer and his body relax. He pulled her tight. "No matter what you will look mind blowing." He kissed her head looking over at his team.
"Really dude! Even in this ugly shit!" Kevin showed one of the dresses Kim hated because it was short and the skirt was completely round, mid thigh, sheer. It was not appropriate and looked almost comical as a wedding dress. "Okay maybe for a different event that could be cute. But you are right it's not wedding appropriate." Kim was beaming knowing that he got it, he understood her approach and what she was going for. The couple both looked back at the team when they heard a collective gasp. Kim knew what they found and she knew she was right it was perfect. "Well can I assume you found the dress Kim had mentioned?" He looked over at them studying their faces. "Yup! And she's right. It's perfect. Not only for her but for the venue. And if it doesn't blow your mind we will kick your ass!" Jay was dead serious. Kim laughed so hard seeing Adams face looking a mix between hurt and offended. Maybe shocked.
"Yeah kid. It's perfect. Lord knows I don't want to know how much it costs but it's perfect." Al left the group patting Adams shoulder before returning to work. Though Adam was concerned about the price as well the look on all of their faces said it was worth it. Plus it was Kim's money to do as she pleased. "We only get married once right?" Kim looked in his eyes beaming with happiness. "Damn straight! We gotta do it right!" He kissed her hard in front of all his friends. Not for the first time either but it was definitely not a work appropriate kiss. The hooting and hollering just egged him on more til Kim came to her senses. "You are at work. And you have a case. Let's clean up then I'm headed home. I won't wait up." Kim pulled out of his arms and started to clean up and place the left overs in the fridge.
Just as they finished cleaning the same man from the desk before entered with all the coffee Kim had ordered to be delivered. It was running late but better late than never in her mind. "You guys got coffee delivered?" He asked afraid of Voight. "Nope that was also me. Sorry it's late. But they had to make several new pots to fill the order. Thank you for bringing it up." Kim smiled at the scared officer. Adam took the coffees and started handing them out. Everyone was grateful for the caffeine hit but also it was good coffee. The district coffee sucked. "Alright off I go! See you when you get home. Good luck everyone. Be safe!" Kim turned to leave finding Adam waiting for her. "How about I walk you out?" He smirked knowing they both needed a few moments of alone time. "Sure." Kim waved goodbye and headed towards the car. Adam was right behind her with his hand placed on her lower back.
He saw the damage to her Jeep right away but didn't care. He just needed to feel her skin and bury himself inside her. The whole kiss in the break room had gotten him all sorts of worked up and needed a release. "You know we have to be quick." She whispered looking in his eyes seeing them dark with lust. "Yup! I can be quick but we should probably be in the car so no one sees the full show." Adam pulled her in to the passenger seat so they wouldn't hit the horn by accident. Kim pulled at his belt and undid his jeans just enough to pull his cock from the confides of his pants. Kim thankfully was wearing leggings and nothing else pulling them down quickly before straddling his body and taking him inside her. She let him thrust as hard as he needed to allowing him the release he needed, that he craved. But he didn't leave her behind. He made sure she got off too.
It was the quickest, shortest round ever but it was very satisfying. "I will see you at home. Maybe for round two?" She winked as she moved to the drivers seat pulling her pants back on. "Oh you are so on!" Love you darling! Thank you for the food, coffee and the stress release." He kissed her sweetly this time. "You're welcome! Love you too baby!" He got out of her car allowing her to drive off as he finished adjusting his pants before heading back in to work. He enter the locker room heading into the bathroom to wash up quickly before heading to his desk. When he did he heard the snickers coming from his team. "So you walk her out for what? A quickie in your car?" Kevin asked laughing trying and failing to get a rise out of Adam. "No shame here. And it was her car. Jealous much?" He laughed knowing Kevin's try's to rile him failed. "Maybe. She's just a cool chick who goes above and beyond. She's fun to be around and we know she's loaded but she never makes us feel like we are beneath her. Just wish I could find someone like her." He shrugged knowing he said more than he intended. "We will help you find the right one Kev. Promise we will help." Adam looked to the team to make sure they were all on board.
After the acknowledgment the team seemed to move on a bit but still about Kim. "So what's the deal with Ellicot City?" Dawson asked. He tried to stay out of their business but the story sounded crazy from what he got. "So it is in Maryland and it's Kim's birth place. She found out recently from the Mayor that her parents had put up a billboard with her face saying something about welcome to Ellicot City the birthplace of Kimberly Burgess. As you can imagine it didn't go over well. Between her business manager and her lawyers it was taken down the next day. Threats of law suits made them work quick to remove the images. She was pissed that this was just another way her parents wasted money they could have repaid her with and continued to exploit her. It was ugly." Adam ran his hand over his face thinking about that night. It had broken his heart seeing her so distraught.
"Sounds messed up. Glad she has a large team surrounding her. She needs it apparently." Dawson looked hurt for his friend. "Yeah she told me this weekend that no one told her that her grandmother died. When she got home she went to the house the women used to own to find someone else there who informed her that the previous owner had died. I mean really how fucked up is that?" It was obviously a rhetorical question. "Well it's a good thing you have each other and you can build your family right when it's the right time." That felt like the right way to end the talk about Kim and go back to work. It would still be a long night but knowing she was waiting for him kept him going.
Kim had gotten home quicker than usual. As soon as she entered the apartment she headed for the shower. Not only to clean up from the quickie in the car but to also wash off the seat from the performance. The lights did a real number on the skin and created a lot of sweat so twice daily showers was just the norm. After her shower she finished her normal night time routine of stretching, putting on her lotion, washing her face and brushing her teeth. She was in bed before the hour had passed. Having no idea when an Adam would be home she decided to get some sleep before he arrived. She was hopeful for a round two but understood completely if it didn't happen. He had been up super early and gone all day with no end in site so sleep was the best option.
"Guys it's 1am. We've been at this almost 24 hours. Go home get some sleep. Be back by 10 rested and ready to finish this." Voight was pissed the case wasn't closed yet but some cases just took longer. It wasn't as easy as it looked on tv. So they headed home ready to sleep for at least 7 hours. Adam was surprised by how awake he was at the thought of going home and seeing Kim. He needed to feel her skin to calm him. This case was brutal and nothing about it felt right. It all felt dirty and wrong and just the lowest of the low. He just needed time with his girl to feel even somewhat better. Having a stable partner at home was the only way to get through these cases without becoming an alcoholic. So he was even more grateful that Kim was there waiting for him, even if she was asleep.
He entered the condo a little after 1:30am. The lights were out except for the small kitchen light Kim always left on so they could see coming in late. It was also helpful when you needed a late night snack. But right now he just wanted to get into bed. He entered the room quietly stripping down and heading into the bathroom. He used the bathroom and brushed his teeth before sliding in next to Kim. He wrapped his arms around her burying his face into her hair, taking a deep breath letting her scent calm him. He felt her snuggling closer making him smile. He wasn't sure if he should wake her or not but he really needed her. He needed to shut off the spinning from this case. He really wasn't sure what to do but knew she would be fine with either.
He took notice of how she went to bed with just a tank and nothing else. He took that as his answer. He moved the tank up over her breasts and moved her leg up over his hip. He started kissing her neck feeling the goosebumps starting to break out. Her head moving to the side allowing him more access. She was still asleep but her body knew what to do and what it wanted. As he kissed down her neck his right hand started to caress her bare breast. He smiled hearing her moan softly in her sleep. His mouth replaced his hand as he licked circles around her breast mound. They both loved her breasts and it was always a huge turn on for them both so he always indulged. When he reached the nipple he licked over it feeling it erect. He bit down on the nub giving her some very bearable pain. He soothed that pain but taking the whole nipple in his mouth sucking on it in a way that drove her crazy.
Kim started waking up to the feeling of fingers trailing down her abs and her breast being sucked on. She knew it was Adam. She could smell his familiar scent. She could feel it was his skin. She moaned at all the pleasure he was giving her. She ran her fingers into his hair holding his mouth on her breast letting it be known what she wanted. He moved back for just a moment. "Are you good with me continuing?" He needed to double check, he always needed to double check when he woke. "Oh absolutely. You can do anything you want." She watched as he went right back to his previous mission. His fingers found her core and his mouth back on her breast just the opposite on this time. He loved them equally always. His fingers never entered her just played, stroked, caressed. They both loved it and it was a great orgasm without penetration. Something that a lot of men think doesn't exist.
It was only when he felt her dripping wet did he change tactics. He rolled them slightly so she was on her back, he hovered over her. "I love you so much!" He whispered against her lips. "I love you so much too. I have a present for you later. To show the world you are my husband, legally or not." She saw him eyes soften just a bit before she crashed her lips against his. It was possessive in a way. Wanting the world to know he's yours but neither cared. It just showed the true love they shared. He adjusted her leg so it was up against her breast right before he entered her. They both moaned into the kiss. "Harder Adam, you know you want to." Kim wanted it just as much. She saw the possessiveness in his eyes when she mentioned the ring. One to never back down he moved her other leg both pressed against her chest as he pounded inside her as hard and as fast as possible.
"Yes Adam! Right there! Yes!" Kim screamed in pleasure, Adam only grunting under the force and pressure. Kim had been holding his biceps but moved her fingers to ass grabbing his cheeks, digging her nails in. She was so close she just needed that final push. "I know you're close! Let it go darling! Stop holding back!" He knew she was doing it on purpose toying with him so he called her on it. "I absolutely fucking love you!" Kim moaned out knowing he loved the cursing. "God darling I love it when you say fuck!" He literally thrusted so hard he wouldn't be surprised if she couldn't walk after that. But it worked, he came loudly with a guttural groan that caused Kim to orgasm right behind him. He thrusted slowly till both their bodies re,axed again. "I absolutely fucking love you too!" He whispered against her rest where his face rested. "Good I love it when you say fuck!" She giggled repeating his words.
"well I do. I don't know why but I do." He didn't care to think too hard about it. He did however think about what Kim was doing moving her arm to grab something from the nightstand. He then remembered her words earlier. "I hope it fits and that you like it." She opened the box shower a dark titanium ring with a wooden inset. "It's made from a real game used bat. And yes I made sure it was from a cubs game." She watched his eyes light up, "I love it. Not just because you bought it, or what it means. But because you put so much thought into it. To make it special and unique. It's perfect." He slid it on right away showing her it fit.
"Round three husband?" She asked coyly. "As much as I would love to I will totally hate myself in the morning. So bed time then after work you are all mine again." They both got cleaned up a bit before falling back into bed. Wrapping their arms tight around each others bodies. Falling asleep almost immediately. Fully in love and ready to face the next set of challenges that lay ahead of them.
