Marcus ~

Later on that evening, Marcus returned home to a quiet house with nothing but the sound of shower water running in his bathroom. Caroline had left the door open allowing the steam to escape from the room, allowing Marcus to enter undetected.

He dropped his bag on the bed and took a step into the bathroom, making his footfalls as silent as he could with a grin on his face.

"You know, if I were a bad guy, you'd be in trouble." Marcus said in a deep voice as he entered the bathroom.

Caroline didn't miss a beat and laughed a little at Marcus' statement.

"If you were a bad guy you'd have two bullet holes in you before you made it down the hallway. You think I didn't clock you the second you walked in?" Caroline said, letting her hand dart out of the walk in shower and point to the glock that was sitting beside the toilet.

"There's no way you saw me come through the front door from inside the shower." Marcus chuckled.

Caroline wiped the steamed glass slightly, so she could give Marcus a playful look.

"Wanna bet? Turn around." Caroline said with a mischievous grin.

Marcus turned over his shoulder only to see a small mirror positioned high in the corner of the door frame. The sight put an uncontrollable smile on Marcus' face.

"Always have an answer for everything, don't you Red?" Marcus chuckled.

"I'm the Boss, I have to have all the answers. Don't act like you're not impressed." She said as she let the curtain fall again, concealing herself behind it.

Oh I'm impressed alright, but you're not the boss here sweetheart.

"The boss, huh?" Marcus asked with a knowing grin.

"Yep."

"Well that may be true out in the field, but we aren't in the field, Hon." Marcus said, toeing off his shoes and pulling his shirt over his head.

"Is that right?" She sassed.

"You're in my house, naked in my shower..."

Marcus had completely undressed and was ready to give Caroline what she'd been begging for all week. He had wanted to wait until she was feeling better, but he couldn't take it any more.

He stepped into the shower, surprising her as she opened her eyes and saw him standing behind her before a deliciously flirty smile curled the corner of her lips.

Stepping into the stream of hot water, Marcus pinned Caroline between himself and the shower wall, planting one of his large hands on the tile as he towered over her.

"You still think you're the boss?" he said with a smirk.

Caroline's back was flush against the tile with her long strawberry blonde hair slicked back. Her cheeks and nose were pink and sunkissed and her pompous attitude had dwindled slightly at the sight of Marcus' large body hovering over her. But she was stubborn and he was loving it.

"You think I don't remember this game you like to play?" Marcus asked, lowering his head as he pressed his lips against the side of her neck. He licked at the tiny beads of water that peppered her skin, making a sensual trail up her neck, feeling her take in a sharp intake of air at the sensation as her tight perked nipples dragged against his chest.

"I remember everything you like." He said against her skin.

Caroline tilted her head to the side, giving Marcus as much room as he needed to explore the soft skin of her neck before she rested her lips against his ear.
