"Good morning Sergeant Platt!" Kim smiled at her as she entered the district. "Well good morning Miss Burgess. You here to see Ruzek?" Platt asked. "Yes I am. Promise I won't keep him long." Kim's smile was wide shining with happiness. "Oh no worries. They just got back from a scene. Probably at his desk." Platt offered to walk her up. "Thank you." Kim followed her up the stairs trying to smile though she was in slight discomfort from work. "Boy wonder! You got a visitor!" Platt barked as she walked towards the coffee pot. "Hey Darling! I wasn't expecting you. Everything okay?" He could tell right away something was off but not sure what. "Im okay. Just need your final Okay on a couple things and then I can cut Matt the check." Kim sat at the chair offered to her and placed the photos out for him to look at. She glanced up seeing the crime scene photos before looking down again.
"Okay well these are fine with me. But why aren't you in rehearsal? You should still be there for another hour if not two. So tell me why you are out early and acting weird." He watched her playing with her hands like she was nervous. It was her tell. "I may have pulled a muscle in my back so I'm taking the day off. It hurts but I'm getting around okay as long as I don't have to bend over. So I figure we could take care of this and then I can go home to take a long hot bath and relax." Kim watched him running his hand over his face. "Break room. I want to see the damage." He helped her up and followed her the break room. Everyone was keeping busy but heard her loud and clear. Adam closed the door and closed the blinds so he could see without everyone looking.
"Nothing to see. Just a little swollen. It's not that bad. I promise really." He didn't look convinced so she moved her shirt and pants to see the puffed out section right above her hip. "That actually looks painful. Are you sure you don't need a hospital?" He watched her nod no. That she was okay. "Alright. Let's get you home. But promise you will rest today. Take it easy." He pleaded with her. "I promise! Long hot bath, massage, tens machine, Advil and lots of rest!" She promised as she made her way back to his desk to pick up her stuff. "By the way. Women don't often choke themselves with belts." She whispered having seen the photos on the white board. He pulled away and looked at her and then the photo. "What are you saying?" He asked quietly. "They normally use silk scarfs to do that. It leaves less bruises. And they don't wear robes. It gets in the way. Your scene looks staged." He looked shocked that she anything about that lifestyle but wasn't completely surprised as they were into a lot of kinky things. "Any other advice?" He smirked at her loving that she was so smart. "Check the ceiling for finger prints." She shrugged as she put her coat on and grabbed her bag.
"Love you see you after work!" She kissed him and left the room. "Okay so that was odd. So Kim just informed me that our scene looks staged. And that women don't use belts for this. They apparently use silk scarfs. And apparently they don't wear robes because it gets in the way. She mentioned checking the ceiling for finger prints." He watched as their jaws dropped or cheeks turned pink. "Well then let's look into that." Voight returned to his office shaking his head. "And before anyone asks NO we don't do that!" He pointed to the picture before going back to his work. "So then how does she know about it then?" Dawson asked. "She knows a lot about a lot of things. And we have been in those shops before. Kim was also single for years before we met. She knew how to take care of her needs. I learned that very early on and no it doesn't bother me. She has never mentioned choking being her thing and never asked for it. And trust me neither of us is afraid to ask for what we want." He watched as the team nodded and got back to work.
"Looks like our victim was cheating with a married man. Maybe the spouse killed the lover?" Jay commented looking through her files. "Maybe? Talk to the lover and his wife." Voight ordered. Erin and Jay left quickly heading towards their suspects while the rest of the team kept digging. It was an hour later when Mouse ran into the room with papers in his hand. "Finger prints on the ceiling were in the system." He placed the photo on white board. "That's the spouse. So she did it?" Kevin said. "Well I checked their emails and it seems our victim was having an affair with both the husband and the wife. So it gets more twisted." Mouse shook his head leaving the room. "Maybe they were all playing together?" Adam asked knowing it was possible. "Maybe text Jay and Erin and have them ask." Voight headed back in to his office.
"Hey Er! Ask the couple if they were all partying together or was our victim just sleeping with the couple individually?" Adam told Erin knowing she was still with the couple. "Yeah I will ask for sure. You have proof of the second part?" Erin asked. "Yeah emails between the victim and both the husband and the wife." Adam knew she would get all the information needed knowing these facts. "Thanks for the heads up Ruze." Erin hung up after that returning her focus to the couple before her. As soon as he hung up with Erin he texted Kim to make sure she made it home and was resting comfortably at home. He smiled happily when he saw the phone of the tube full of bubbles and just her toes showing.
It wasn't much longer till Erin and Jay returned with the couple in cuffs. "They keep blaming the other one so we brought them both in to sort it out." Jay commented as they moved towards the interrogation rooms. "Alright let's figure this out. And close this case so we can have an early night." Voight stated as he headed towards an interrogation room. As the rest of the team continued to work the case whether with interrogations or finding all the pieces of the puzzle per say Adam was texting Kim making sure she was still doing alright. It was the first real injury since they had been together and it worried him. He also knew it was killing her to take the day off and rest. It wasn't long til the whole team was back in the bullpen both the husband and wife confessing to their part in the crime.
"Guys paperwork tomorrow. Go home enjoy the early night. Also everyone thank Ruzek. If it wasn't for Kim we would still be chasing our tails." Voight dismissed the team for the night. The team cheered clapping Ruzek on the back as they packed up and left for the night. Adam was thrilled to leave early, it didn't happen often so this was a real treat for him. When he arrived home he grabbed the mail and the large box for Kim from the door step before taking the elevator to their floor. He got out on their floor realizing he had a pretty perfect life with Kim and getting to live in this penthouse was a nice bonus for him. He never imagined he could live somewhere this nice let alone have two homes. It was a dream.
"Darling I'm home! I got the mail and a very large box of stuff you ordered." He was setting his keys down as he saw her exit their room in a tank top and some booty shorts and of course her tens machine working away. "Hey thank you. That should be all the clothes for my promotional deal. What's in the mail?" He handed her the pile giving her a kiss before hanging up his jacket. He saw her holding one piece and staring at it. "What is it?" She handed him the envelope. "Something from Ellicot City? What is that? More like where is that?" He asked confused. "Um it's in Maryland. It's where I was born." She opened the letter reading it and gasping loudly. Adam grabbed the letter reading it as well. "What are you going to do?" He asked seeing her on the verge of tears. "Call them and threaten to sue if they don't take it down right away. What else can I do? I don't want some billboard with my name and face plastered on it in the dirt water town I was born in. When will they stop exploiting me!" She grabbed her phone not even thinking but called her business manager. She let him handle it because if she called she would be arrested for sure.
After hanging up she went straight to their bed and laid down tears streaming down her face. "Darling. Do not cry over them. They don't deserve it. Continue to shine brightly despite what they put you through. You are a success because of you, not them. Don't let them taint your happiness once again. You deserve to smile today and everyday. Never forget that." He didn't dare move her with her injury so he kicked his shoes off and molded to her body. He laid against her till the tears slowed. "I really want nothing to do with them. Ever again. I'm so over it all. But I can't help but wonder what else is waiting for me from them. You think I can get a gag order on them? Maybe a non disclosure agreement? This needs to stop. As much as I'm a public person I really enjoy having my private life be private. It's safer for all of us." She sighed heavily but the sobs had stopped and the labored breathing had calmed. "Call your lawyer and ask. There has to be something they can do to prevent this from happening again when they get out. And to prevent them from contacting you too. I know it's the best thing for you. So we will make it happen somehow, someway." Adam wasn't sure how but he was determined to try.
He waited till she was more relaxed before making his next suggestion. "How about we get some dinner delivered and then watch a movie?" He felt her turn over to look at him. Her eyes bloodshot from crying but she was smiling. "Yeah let's do that. I need to rest before tomorrow so that is perfect. But how about we watch spring training instead of a movie." Kim watched his eyes light up. "Really? You want to watch baseball with me?" He was shocked. "Well I know you love baseball, hence why I got you tickets for opening day and Sunday season tickets. But truly I love baseball. I can guarantee you that I have been to more games then you have." He watched him sit up shocked. "Yup over 200 games. Oh and I've been to the World Series. And I've been to spring training. So bring it on!" Kim laughed watching his shocked face transform into disbelief. "You just keep surprising me Kim. It's literally insane! So let's go!" Adam helped her up carrying her to the kitchen to look through menus.
They ordered food before heading to the couch to find a game to watch. "What team do you root for? I'm sure it will not be the same as mine but we all have our faults." He joked as he turned on the only game available. "Well I'm an east coaster you know that. But most of the games I went to were in Philly or New York. But I have been to see the Cubs and White Sox's. Philly is my favorite though. And just so you know my friend Jen from Florida sent me pictures from a game she was at of one of the players butts." She watched him break out in laughter. "What why?" He wasn't mad he found it hilarious. "Well I wanted autographs. But she didn't feel like she could get close enough so she sent me butt photos instead. And of only one player. So now his name when I cheer is Casty-ass. His Instagram name is Casty8. So it works." He was still cracking up over the whole situation.
"Give me the remote!" She switched the tv over to watching YouTube TV but not her account. "So this is my friends account and it's an east coast account so we can watch other games." She clicked through to see they could watch Phillies, Mets or Yankees. "Damn! Love this! Super smart way to watch more games." They picked the philly game for Kim and relaxed watching the game waiting for their food. "Just so you know. I get very loud when I watch games. So heads up!" He laughed again doubting she was actually that bad. "Let's get comfy and relax. You need to rest that back." He pulled her into his lap as they sat to watch the game. "Do you go to games often?" She asked not taking her eyes off the screen in front of them. "Not as much as I would like but I can't wait for this season. I'm definitely making tome for all the game tickets you got me." He kissed the side of her head noticing her eyes transfixed.
"Give me a minute to grab the food. Be right back." He moved her to the couch and then headed to lobby to retrieve their food. Kim hadn't even noticed be left which he found amusing. When he returned she was still watching the game intently. "Darling your food is here. Pineapple fried rice, no egg, with chicken and extra pineapple." That got her attention. "Really? Thanks babe! You know I love cooked pineapple." Kim got up gently and headed to the kitchen to get her food. "Oh trust me I know how much you love pineapple. And extra fruit is good for you so I will happily indulge you." He handed her a bowl knowing she wouldn't be able to eat all of it. She kissed him before heading back to the couch. He joined her shortly after bringing his food and drinks for them both.
They ate pretty much in silence but as soon as the bowl went down her voice got loud. "Are you kidding me! Really? You make a ridiculous amount of money every year and you strike out? Really asshole?" Kim yelled watching the game. "Kim you know they can't hear you right?" Adam laughed out loud seeing her angry. "Well yeah I'm not stupid but really his contract is for 330 million and he sucks ass!" Kim plopped on the couch huffing in annoyance. "Well okay then." He laughed again watching his girl sulking. "I love learning new things about you. And this one is definitely a huge favorite of mine. Watching you yell at the tv with such anger and passion if a huge turn on by the way." He winked at her watching her blush. "Just wait it will get hotter!" She winked back.
Another inning rolled by and the yelling got worse. And so did the insults. "Really douche bag? You couldn't even swing? What the hell do we pay you for you stupid twat waffle!" Kim was annoyed and Adam couldn't wait to take her to opening day. He wanted to see this in the stadium loud and proud with all the other crazy fans. "That's a good one darling." He chuckled loudly. "God these people are pissing me off!" Kim groaned leaning in to his embrace. "Oh I can tell. Just keep yelling darling. Tell them how you really feel." Adam encouraged enjoying the show she was putting on. "This is just crazy! How can they suck this much already? Especially when they make so much money? If I wasn't performing well I would be fired. Like legit!" She sipped her drink before looking at the game once more. "Well I'm not sure but it's only spring training darling. I'm sure it will get better." He tried to be positive but really couldn't care a less as it wasn't his team and this was the best show known to man.
"Yeah maybe." He watched her sulking so he just held her tight letting her feel all her emotions. They watched longer till Kim got up to fill her drink again. "Darling you may want to come back. They have runners on the bases." He watched her hurry back with wasn't very fast given her back. She stood to the side watching, waiting, hoping for something good to happen. She had no idea that Adam had pulled out his phone to record her epic rants. Whether positive or negative it would be amusing. As soon as the ball was launched into the outfield for a home run Kim started cheering and screaming. He recorded the whole thing. "Wahoo! Yeah that's my boys! That's how you fucking do that! Whooooooooo!" She screamed clapping jumping up and down. "Darling your back. You need to relax and calm down." He needed her to calm down before she got hurt worse. "Sorry just excited!" She turned around walking over to flop on the couch again.
"I'm glad you are excited but your back needs to rest. So how about you relax in my arms and continue to yell at the game." He pulled her back into his lap carefully and held her tight. He wasn't letting her move more. He knew she had already over done it. After a lot more yelling and cheering the game was over. Adam didn't hesitate to pick Kim up and take her to their bedroom. "On your belly. Tens machine on with the heating pad. I'm gonna clean up dinner." He helped her get comfy before heading to the kitchen to clean up. He had seen the flashes of pain crossing her face no matter how she tried to hide it. He needed her to take it easy and if he had to he would force her to. She wasn't the best at taking it easy.
After dinner was all put away and the doors locked he headed back to their room. He saw her muscles contracting around the pads. "Is it feeling any better?" He asked handing her a bottle on water and several Advil. "Um yeah. Still sore but it's getting better. Hopefully tomorrow will feel good enough to work again. I know Steven hates working with my under study. Just like I hate working with his. Though I picked them both so it's only my fault." She laughed. "What do you mean you picked them?" He was confused never hearing this before. "I had to audition all the possible candidates and they were both the best available. So yeah I did it to myself." Kim laughed but grimaced at the pain. "Well maybe you can find new under studies that would be better." He had no idea how that worked but it seemed like a viable option. "Maybe but they are both under contract so we are stuck with them for now." Kim shrugged before laying flat again.
"Relax darling! Just let your back relax some." He watched her trying to be comfortable. "Hopefully it will better tomorrow. That's all I can hope for." Kim sighed placing her face on the bed again. She saw him getting ready for bed stripping down to his boxers. "It's rude to stare darling." He smirked seeing her blush being caught checking him out. "Well I think I'm allowed. You know since we are getting married." She sassed back at him. "Oh well then I get to stare too then." He walked over leaning down to kiss her. "Oh please you already do. And we both know it." She winked at him. "Oh of course I do. I love your body! It's ridiculously sexy and strong. I've never seen muscles like these before. It's insane, you're insane!" He massaged her head a little while the tens machine still worked. "Yours is pretty damn hot too! You know it's hard to keep my hands to myself." She smirked at him.
He watched her sit up taking the pads off her back and putting the machine away. Kim loved how portable it was and how easy it was to use. Once it was away she put the heating pad away too. And started to get ready for bed. She could feel him watching her but she didn't mind. She actually played into it. It was fun teasing him and getting him riled up. "Don't you dare swing those hips! You know nothing can happen tonight with your back hurting!" Adam growled loudly. "Says who?" Kim smiled sway her hips a bit. "Kimberly! You need to relax!" Adam growled again. "Maybe it would help me relax more. You know you want to just as much as I do. And you know we can be gentle." She looked into his eyes pouting her bottom lip. "Darling. I don't want to hurt you but you are right. I do want this. I always want you. You're like a drug to me. I can't ever get enough of you." His hands resting on her hips.
"Are you absolutely positive? I would never forgive myself if I hurt you." She could see the pure conflict on his face but it only made her love him more. "I'm positive. And I promise I won't do anything to to change speed or position. I will let you be gentle and behave myself." Kim showed him that she was beyond positive that this was exactly what she wanted and needed. "Okay. But if you start to hurt just tell me and I will stop." He needed her to know her care was most important. "I know that. Now let's do this!" She winked stripping her shirt and then shimmying out of her panties. Adam watched her intently looking for any sign that this was a bad idea. When he didn't see it he got up dropping his boxers to the floor. He saw her eyes darken with want which left him smirking with smugness.
She laid down on the bed waiting for Adam to join her. He laid next to her rolling her on to her side facing away from him. He wrapped his left arm under her body bringing his right hand down to help line himself up before sliding inside Kim. He allowed her a moment to adjust to his size, wrapping his arm around her resting his hand on her belly. He started to rock his hips slowly, his left hand caressing her breast. Kim moaning in pleasure taking everything he was giving her. Her hand going to hold his hip. She needed to touch his bare skin. His lips pressing kisses on her neck and shoulder. He never sped up and she never asked for it. They both enjoyed the slow, sensual pace. Both bodies with sweaty and starting to flush as he brought them closer to the edge. Kims body starting to tremble slightly under his touch.
"I know darling. I got you." He whispered as he moved his fingers closer to her core. "Adam." Kim moaned trying to buck her hips but he held them tight. They both felt him twitching inside her, it would be much longer till bliss took over. His fingers slid into her core. Just lazily playing her clit causing her to moan more almost pleading with him. But he never sped up. He kept his pace till her body was over come by a blinding orgasm. One like she had never felt before. The warm sensation that over took her body left her feeling like she was floating. She was barely aware that Adam was still holding back. She clenched her muscles around him a few times before he gave in and allowed himself to release his seed inside her. Groaning her name loudly as he came. Her body still trembling as he stopped rocking his hips.
"Are you good?" He whispered concerned for her well being. "I'm good. Still floating. Literally never felt like that before." She was quiet for a second. "I agree your like a drug to me too. I crave it, I crave you." She felt Adam adjust them so he could turn her over looking deep into her eyes. "I've said it before but I will say it again. We were made for each other. We are the perfect fit for each other. It sounds smug but no one had ever taken all of me in them. I love that you can handle all of me in you. I feel complete, whole and like I'm home. You are my home." He brushed her hair behind her ear and cupped her face. Slowly bringing their lips together in a very slow loving kiss. "You are my home too." Her eyes brimming with happy tears as she leaned in to kiss him again.
The was languid, full of love and desire. When she pulled back her brown eyes locked in his. "Love me again. Please." She didn't wait for him to reply before kissing him again. Letting her lips do all the talking. Letting at her intentions be poured into the kiss. He said nothing, not breaking the kiss as he moved their bodies so he could enter her once more. Making love her once more, careful if her injury. It was just as slow and passionate as their last round but it felt even more intimate as they were able to kiss each other and look deep into their eyes. Kims fingers were running up and down his back scratching him softly. Adam moved his lips down her neck being careful not to leave a mark. "God darling I love you!" He whispered as he looked up locking eyes with hers. "I love you too! My only one!" Her head thrown back on the pillow as she felt her orgasm starting to take over.
"Only you darling! Just let it go." He could feel her body starting to shake. He could feel the orgasm taking over her body. He felt her hips buck right before her entire body gave in to the orgasm. Shaking, moaning loudly. All the while Adam thrusting softly prolonging her orgasm. As she still he met himself go once more. As soon as he came he felt her body spasm again around him. "God damn Adam! That was amazing!" Kim sighed as her body relaxed against the bed. "Yeah. Fireworks, explosions, every time." He panted trying to catch his breath. "Perfect. My soon to be husband. Can't wait." Kim eyes locked on his. "I can't wait either. My wife. You are my wife, legally or not." He kissed her softly. "Need to get you a ring then. Let those ladies know you are off the market for good then." Kim smiled enjoying their playful banter. "What ladies? No other ladies come near me. I give off a taken vibe." He winked playfully. "Good! I would beat their asses!" Kim laughed knowing she probably couldn't. Not because she wasn't strong but because she had no idea how to fight. Adam just laughed knowing she was playing with him.
"Alright. Now you know no ladies are looking at me how about we get some sleep. We could both use the sleep before tomorrow. Especially if you plan on working." He watched her nod before getting up to use the bathroom and clean up a bit. As she settled back into their bed she snuggled up on his chest. Placing one last kiss above his heart before closing her eyes to sleep. "Good night my darling." He watched her smile softly mumbling something incoherent back. He just smiled holding her closer as he too drifted off to sleep.
