Four years

Four years of solving crimes by connecting the dots;

four years finishing each other's sentences and thoughts.

Four years of paperwork, interrogations and case files;

four years with many cups of coffee and thank-you smiles.

Four years of memories both vivid and hazy;

four years driving each other crazy.

Four years of theories both stupid and wise;

four years filled with mobs, killers and spies.

Four years of constant flirting and teasing;

four years of banter both satisfying and pleasing.

Four years of thoughts and things left unsaid;

four years of wishing to take each other to bed.

Four years with just one kiss undercover;

four years and so many almost-kisses to cover.

Four years of secret jealousy and lies;

four years of suppressed desires and lustful eyes.

Four years of emotions and feelings in disguise;

four years filled with so many lows and highs.

Four years of happiness and sadness;

four years filled with frustration and madness.

Four years of learning each other's weaknesses and strengths;

four years they were ready do anything for each other, go any lengths.

Four years filled with so many laughs and cries;

four years he's been waiting for her to open her eyes.

Four years he's been not just a partner but so much more;

four years of waiting her to see she's the one he's waiting for.

Four years of longing and desire;

four years of burning and fire.

Four years with many innocent touches and one hand rub;

four years she's been reading his books in her bathtub.

Four years she's been building walls he kept breaking;

four years of giving and taking.

Four years he smelled her perfume every time she was near;

four years she's been making threats or pulling his ear.

Four years he's been shadowing her and calling her his inspiration;

four years she's been wishing to kill him with no hesitation.

Four years she has to put up with his childish behavior;

four years she's cursed her fate and prayed for a savior.

Four years she's been pushing him away, saving her space;

four years he's been drawing her closer case after case.

Four years he's been driving her mad;

four years until she saw he's not that bad.

Four years she's been dating other guys;

four years until she finally opened her eyes.

Four years was all it took her to realize

what she needed was right in front of her eyes.

Four years of arguing - fight after fight

and then came this one stormy night.

Four years and now she ends up at his place

kissing him slowly, and holding his face.

Four years of true passion and hidden desire

poured into kisses that set them on fire.

Four years of lonely nights and insatiable longing

and they had finally found their belonging.

Four years until they finally saw,

indulging their passion so carnal and raw.

Four years and they finally had found their ways

to be with each other no matter what. Always.
